OtherOtie Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 The other month I was in a sort of wakeful sleep in the morning, drifting in and out of consciousness. A sort of sentence came to me that my mind just kept repeating over and over. It went something like this: "I never used to remember dreams until suddenly FOURTH GRADE, DAY THREE, DANGER - something else..." This is what I wrote down after I had the thought. I'm not sure what some of it means, actually. I'm not sure what the first part means, since it's not true. I remembered lots of dreams prior to fourth grade. The last bit "something else" was actually part of the sentence. I don't know what that stands in for either. But the interesting thing about this is that I believe it refers to 9/11. I was in fourth grade at the time, and it was one of the first days of class, being in September. It very well might have been the third day of 4th grade, but I have no way of checking this unless there's some board of ed calender in 2001 somewhere. The danger part solidifies it to me as referring to 9/11 for obvious reasons. So I live in NY, and naturally this was a pretty scary event for me. I wasn't really in the vicinity of the attack, being from Queens, and neither was anybody I know. Nobody I know died or was personally affected. So it's weird to me that this would come to me suddenly. It's oddly specific, and I never would have consciously formulated 9/11 as day 3 of 4th grade, even though that seems more or less right. Do any of you have any thoughts about what all of this might mean?
Stephen C Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Do you remember anything that happened the day before the morning of drifting in and out of consciousness in wakeful sleep?
