A dream of Hell?

[budlite]

Although I am somewhat embarrassed about this dream I will share it. Last night I had a dream I was racing around dogging flames that were shooting at me from above. The flames were more like an elegant curl that would swoop down at me more than shoot out. I also had the feeling there were others with me running from these flames. It wasn't like I was really in human form either. It was like I had superior speed but I was smaller and the flames would not stop. The weird thing was I kept thinking I am almost 40 and I have no excuse. I kept trying to justify why the flames should stop with a lame excuse of ignorance… For what I have no idea. I suspect it is the way I lived or am living my life? I could assume that would mean I have a feeling I am not living up to a standard I have set for myself? Or it could be a bit more menacing and mean I didn’t live or am not living up to a superior beings standard? I am not a bad person. I consider my self the norm. I have a job, wife, and two kids. I pay my bills and live a fairly normal existence.... Anyway, it was a weird dream and a bit scary if you look at it from a biblical standpoint... p.s. I am a Network Engineer and when I got in to work this morning all communications were down. A lighting bolt hit an AT&T utility box during a storm last night. No one could really work. It was out of my hands but I was still sweating the situation. Anyway, this may be irrelevant to my dream but I thought it worth mentioning... Maybe the flames were actually the lighting bolt and me running from the flames was me actually sweating the situation but had no way to fix it? The justification part and excuse of ignorance may have been my fellow employees looking at me and not caring what the situation was but just wanted the right answer they were looking for and that was everything was working? Anyway...

Hey, don't worry about your dream. Most likely you just watched something that stuck with you before sleeping. Otherwise you might just be feeling a little depressed right now to answer you questions in the first part of your post. About the lightning thing though, if this dream was related to that, I think your drawing too much out of it. i've had friends who have had dreams completely unrelated to something, but in the course of the dream they get a vivid question that turns out to be on a pop quiz the next day. Maybe the fire was just representing the lightning, who knows? Seriously though, I'm sure it was just a crazy dream. Unless you have it again don't sweat it.

It was a dream, I've had a dream of hell too.

Many many people have dreams about stuff that they do not agree with. Your subconscious can not always be explained. Many people have dreams about things they are afraid of. I've had a dream about murdering people, but I don't want to kill people. Rest easy, God only gave you a sound mind.
