Childhood Worries - Adulthood Memories

When I was a kid I worried about getting beheaded. I’ve been dreaming about that recently. I remember how graphic history class was and how they talked about the worst thing you could do to someone in ancient Rome was desecrate the body and send a final blow of insult by removing the head violently. I don’t know why I dream these things. I wish I didn’t. I dreamed about the old high school and a little boy was beaten and had his head cut off. His head fell at my feet. His eyes were open. His forehead was cut. His mouth was closed. His head was lying beside his body, sitting up on the neck. In the same dream was the dollar store that I frequent. It was sitting in a strip mall that also makes a regular appearance in my dreams. I want to go to bed now. I also want to go outside and take a walk to ease the anxiety but it’s raining out there. It’s also too late to be walking anywhere. the cat and dog are in the bedroom. Cap doesn’t like being separated from me too long. He’s whining to let him out. I need to sleep but I am so scared to do it.

    Oh my goodness!!! I have had so many images of ppl head being cut off. I mean, really, from ppl I know, to total strangers. Mine were not dreams, but images that I see while fully awake, how creepy is that???
    Your writings are so damn good, that I had images of your dream. Geesh.
    Do you think, there is a message in the heads rolling??? Does dreaming or seeing such things have a deeper meaning???
