Interesting story OP. Have you ever noticed how you can tell when a dream is actually significant? Whenever I have a significant dream with actual
meaning I still feel the strong emotions even after I wake up. As opposed to a meaningless dream where I will wake up and just shrug it off as
nonsense. I hardly ever have any meaningful dreams. Actually I've only ever had two that were so significant that I remembered them years later. One
of them was about a year and a half ago. I dreamed that I was walking down the sidewalk of a big local shopping centre in my city. I could tell while
I was dreaming that this was a lucid dream, because I could feel the temperature outside, I could smell the air, even the cigarette I was smoking felt
so real. The whole dream was had such a surreal feel about it. As I was walking towards a shop I was just about to enter, I heard a mass panic begin
to stir to my right. People were pointing to the sky and hollering. I looked up and saw thousands, literally thousands, of black spacecraft in the
air. So many that it was actually blocking the sunlight. People started running in all directions, jumping into their cars and speeding off. It was a
total calamity. I was one of the few people that just stood there staring up at these things. I felt fear. But not a fear of harm, more like just a
fear of the unknown. At the same time I also felt immense curiosity and also a strange feeling of "Well, it took long enough. Finally!"
That was when I woke up, about ten seconds after I began to stare at these things. After I woke up I still felt the same emotions that I had been
feeling in the dream. I felt these emotions for hours. I always wonder to myself if these are the dreams that we're supposed to pay attention to.
Maybe that's why we feel such strong emotions, to tell us to pay attention to those dreams and forget about the common pointless ones that we have
every night.
The only other dream I have had that involves such a heavy level of emotion was when I had a dream that I met my grandfather (mothers father) who was
an abusive raging alcoholic who died long before I was born. In the dream he walked right through my front door, shook my hand and told me that he was
proud of how my mothers life had turned out, and that he was sorry for everything that he had ever done. After that he said "Let's go to the pub!"
which I found strange, considering that he had such a major drinking problem. Maybe that was just his sense of humour. Either way, I woke up from that
dream surrounded by a really strange vibe, and such strong emotions in me. It's just so hard to ignore dreams like that, the ones that actually make
you feel something. They must have some kind of connection to other realities/dimensions. They can't be simple nonsense dreams.
