Turning into someone else.

[Destiny]

In my dream, which I had more than a year ago and still remember it well, I was in a cabin-like room. I was life size, and my mom who was sitting in a rocking chair seemed to be smaller...next to her was a small, empty crate. On top of the crate was a brass or copper looking lantern...there was a shape cut out of the lantern...a moon I think(...maybe a sun and moon or just a sun...but I'll go with moon.) I stared at it for a while...and the rest is a bit of a blur...but I believe I was sitting on my knees and my mom asked me something about Toni (my sister that passed away) and I was saying something like I was turning into her....

I do think I am turning into my sister...well not literally...but I think my decisions come from what I think she would choose...or something...I need help understanding my dream...please help. :confused:

Maybe you're thinking about her a lot and so you've been making decisions that she would normally make?

I really don't know about your dream. I think dreams are supposed to be a combination of things that happen during the day and things we think about. If you've been thinking about your sister, it would make sense that you've been dreaming about her.

Are you and your sister similar in any ways (besides being relatives). Perhaps you've been spending more time with her, and you could be influenced by her.

[wonders about]

I think that a lot of time when we're seperated from people that we love, be it trough death or merely miles, we notice how they've influenced us differently from when they're around. When a person really cars for another and spends a lot of her life with that person, she tends to pick up traits, ideals even and that will influence choices. It isn't a bad thing to be acting in way that relfects someone you love or respect. You probably were noticing the similarities more stongly than you did when you were with her, and the dream was a refflection of that new awarness.

Hopper-

Eh...maybe...hmmm... Yes I think that's part of it.

I view dreams the same way. The thing is, two years ago on May 20 2006 she passed away.

punxnotdead-

Similar? Yes, I guess so. Me and her had a tight relationship (not all sisters do) even though we were 11 years apart in age. We didn't look alike, or so me and her thought, but we, sometimes, acted in similar ways. And it could be that I look up to her so much as well.

wonders about-

You are very insightful. Thanks for the help. This makes a lot of sense...:)

Thank you, all of you.:D


Eventually I had other dreams about her...sad in ways.

In one I was sitting in my living room, just sitting in my dads chair, and she was there, standing near me. I called her name, asked her to say something, but she didn't, then the dream ended. A few nights later I had a similar dream about her, but this time she said "Hey." I cried. (Of course. I'm a baby.)

Every now and then she'll be in my dreams...it's pleasant having her around at least for sanity sake.
