Am I Missing something?

My only dream I have that is recurring is something I would like to see broken down, if possible.

(From the recurring dreams thread)

Ok, I hate to bring up hockey in my dreams, but guess what - my only recurring dream involves hockey. And it's not the same exact same, but theres always the same concept: some critical part of what I need to play (skates, stick, etc) is missing. Example:

I'm going to take a face-off...the ref is getting ready to drop the puck, when all of a sudden I realize I don't have a stick...now, this is absurd - first, someone would have obviously told me I don't have a stick...I SHOULD notice, but I don't...and even if I don't, that's what...a 10 second fix...? But I always panic like there is no fix and that's that.

Second variation : No skates...same thing...again, something that would really never happen, as why would I go onto the ice with just one skate? That's absurd...

Third Variation: Broken Stick

One more tidbit: I really hate missing hockey games, and have only missed about 3-5 in my life of playing (almost 15 years)...so I don't know if it's just a literal interpretation that I feel left out of not playing, or if it means I'm missing something in life, or what...but any thoughts would be appreciated!

This sounds like the hockey version of dreams people get about going to an airport without plane tickets or turning up at an exam they haven't revised for.

You feel you are unprepared. However (according to the text books!) you compensate for this irl by making extra efforts to do things right. So in fact you're probably more prepared than someone who has a more relaxed approach to preparation (and doesn't dream about it!).

hey, I'm at a local CC right now and transferring to a public 4 year university next year and I always feel I'm unprepared, even though I've got a 3.85 gpa and talking with advisors and what not. What you said def. Makes sense. Thanks!

yeah, seems like you are missing something absolutely vital in life. you know, if you don't have it then you can't function properly. if dreams are spiritual, maybe its talking about spirituality. are you missing something spiritual in your life?
