A Good Man is Hard to Find

November 26, 2012 [ 261112 ]

Fragment 1:

I come into a parking lot, just after attending some social event. A few other people are walking with me. It seems that I have timed my arrival in order to try to intercept a certain female who I saw at the event. I am being kind of sneaky and pretending to not notice her as she goes to her car, and I casually go to "my car" which is parked near to hers. I am pretending it is "my car" because it is not my car, I have no car, tho I have borrowed a car. It is a red car with a hatch-back. There is a black bronco car, or truck-jeep thing, parked between the red car and the girl's car. I use my keys to open up the back hatch of the red car, and then also open up the back hatch on the black car--but then realize I kind of made a mistake by doing this--because now I am pretending to have both these cars, the black one of which is definitely not mine at all (for some reason tho, my keys were able to open the back of it). Anyway, I know I have to just go with it, and somehow I pretend that I opened the black car too as if it is a friends or something, and I am going to move some stuff between the two cars. Meanwhile, the girl and her mother are sitting in the open back hatch of their car (white?) watching this.

There is a pile of dozens of my books in the back of the red car, and I start to go thru them as if I am cleaning them out, and as if I am going to move them to the black car. After a moment, I select two books that are by famous female author Flannery O'Connor. The book on top is Flannery's "A Good Man is Hard to Find". I do not recall the title of the second book. Seeing that these two books are by a female author, I get a sense that the girl might appreciate these. So I casually go over to her and say something like, "Hey you want these books? They are by Flannery O'Connor. Really good. I read them in graduate school, so they are a bit marked up, but they are good". Both books are very thin, and remind me of something more like theatrical play books. One has a yellow-green cover and the other a blue cover. I flip thru the pages, and can see that indeed, I had really marked them up when I read them, where nearly every line is highlighted and marked with pen (something I used to do with everything I read). I hand them to the girl, and she is pleased to take the books.

Fragment 2: (this may have come before the above fragment):

Next I am up in the forest on some hill trails. I move around a bit, and there is something both about hill trails and hill tops, and "hill top graduate girls" who are very colorful and dynamically stable (?).

I arrive upon a specific trail path with a few forks that looks similar to a place (or places) near my actual home.

I meet some guy who has studied forest trails in formal graduate school. We began some discussion about the forest and trails, and then start talking about a specific type of trail: the type that I have seen around here often, short, ditch-like trails made of red-brown dirt that go up steep hills ... and the tells me, of yes, he knows them very well, and he calls those types of trails "runners". The guy says he knows all about them, and once he discovered their great and meaningful significance, he knew that was it for him--his life purpose--and he focused and got a graduate degree on "runner" ditch trails.

Fragment 3:

I am meeting with Daniel. We arrange a meeting to sit with each other at Blue Mountain's house. We gather together downstairs at a spot very near the spiral staircase that goes up to my old loft room (I lived at earlier this year). This is the first time I have seen Daniel in a long time. We sit down together, and are having casual talk about something like how the temperature of the room in the house is. We are just beginning our session …

The dream shifts then, and I am with another group of men. There are 2 to 3 other men plus a leader man. The leader man seems to be someone I just met, and is an older male. Somehow, it seems he is the leader of us. He is sitting on a couch in a lazy position watching television and drinking beer. I am sitting nearby on the floor, waiting for the other males to return (they might be in the kitchen). I am slightly impatient with the situation. It seems that we are somehow devoted to this beer drinking, T.V. watching guy, like he is some type of beer and T.V. guru. The room we are in is like a type of enclosed room with asian doors. I begin to wonder why I have been hanging out with this guy. I don't drink beer, I don't watch T.V. I can be my own leader …

> Upon Awakening:

>>> Sync / Precognition 1:

- Upon awakening, I have several lucid thoughts: one of which is that I sense one of my housemates Chris will return today (he's been in California and I have not heard from him in weeks). Somehow this premonition seems associated to the cars in the dream, as I know he will need to use the car I have been borrowing. Later that morning, shortly after documenting this dream, Chris arrives from the airport by taxi cab--completely unannounced.

>>> Sync / Precognition 2:

- I take a long and epic hike that day, and find the precise location along a trail that the dream had guided me to. There I discover some "runner" trails that lead me to a new trail that was hidden that I had yet to discover.

>>> Sync / Precognition 3:

- The next day (Nov 27), John Doe on FaceBook tags me in this picture of him (see below) holding Flannery O'Connor's book, "A Good Man is Hard to Find"--a nearly exact rendition of the book I held in the dream (wow). I cannot recall the last time I saw or even thought about this book.
