There have only been two times in my life when I had the water dream. Once when I was in high school and once this week. They are dreams to be reckoned with. In high school I was asleep and very tired but in that place where my body was asleep but my mind was awake to some degree. I was having the feeling that I needed to go to the bathroom. I had a large glass of water before bed. I ignored that feeling. A little while later I was dreaming I was at a wonderful, beautiful waterfall. I was memorized by the water and then I was watching the water fall from the ledge that was about 20 feet above me and all of a sudden it was the best feeling to see that water fall. Suddenly I was awake and my bed was wet. That is the message of the water dream. I had ignored that nudge to wake up and go to the bathroom.
This past week I had the same thing happen. I was not at a water fall. Again I ignored that urge. I was tired and asleep but aware. I was at the edge of a river and watching the water flow past me and again...it was the best thing to watch that water flow. Luckily I caught myself. I jumped and made the mad dash to the bathroom.
Our bodies do talk to us even when we are sleeping. Listen. Listen well.
You can chase a butterfly all over the field and never catch it. But if you sit quietly in the grass it will come and sit on your shoulder.
