Last night I had a fairly strange dream. Took me awhile to get online to write it down so the details may not be as good as they should be. The dreams location took place in Wisconsin, on a snowy day in a small town similar to where my Mother lives, her house was just as old as her current house is, however it was a completely different house. I was moving up there and apparently going to school there as well. I had what I assume to be my cousin (who does not exist in real life) meet me and help me get used to the area, unpack, ect... She was a platinum blond woman, attractive, and of the same age as me (23), she had a very outgoing personality and was quite courageous.

Details of the dream seem sketchy at best, but for one reason or another we were running through the neighborhood. The neighborhood was weird in design and appeared to be slanted (as in running downhill at a very sharp rate) the houses on one block were completely covered by hills, so it's kind of like you would be running down a hill and next thing you know..you were running on top of someones roof and it just continued in that manner. To make this run felt as if it took an insane amount of balance, to not fall off an injure yourself.

But me and my cousin (i assume) were running full speed down this gauntlet of balance. After making it fairly far down the hill, suddenly the hill stopped on someones roof and became a HUGE drop off. I was ahead of my pretend cousin and I noticed it first and tried my hardest to stop, but I was running too fast. In a split second decision I decided to drop off and grab the edge of the roof (gutters). My cousin quickly came to my aid and helped pull me up, afterward I thanked her and we both decided it would be much safer to simply walk on the road the rest of the way (yes apparently there was a road the whole time, though I don't recall seeing it).

We reached my mothers house and my cousin decided she had to get something out of the car. When she opened the car door, she suddenly collapsed. I was freaking out because she seemed motionless. I looked in the car door and there was what appeared to be a red electronic box (in retrospect I assume the box was a dialysis machine, which I guess that's what it was), I called for my mom to come help, my mom came out and hooked her up to it and almost immediately she regained consciousness, but was too weak to stand up. So I picked her up and carried her inside the house and laid her down on my bed. She seemed much better after only a few seconds of laying there and she thanked me for the help.

Then I woke up and felt completely unrested.

Looking back on the dream the relationship with my cousin (?) seemed to be a very deep one. It felt as if we were the best of friends, looking out for one another despite whatever the obstacle. It felt like a relationship of true love (not in that way you dirty minded weirdo), but one of complete understanding and care. I get the vague feeling that she was a representation of myself. To give a representation of our relationship, it felt as if she would've died...so would I.

Seems so strange that my mind would be able to create such a believable relationship to someone whom does not even exist in real life. It kind of makes me realize the power of the unconscious mind.
