I have been waiting for a thread like this, Bene san! I always dream of something that really bewilders me. I have been researching about my dreams but I couldn't seem to get to understand. Or is it my business to understand my dreams?
A little introduction. My younger sister's husband, a young police officer, was killed in a drug buy/bust operation. It was one of the saddest happening in our family. He was such a loving man. Before I left Philippines, I visited them in Davao and I told him, I wouldn't be worrying about my sister and her children because he was such a loving father and husband. He replied, that he loved Maricar and his children so much. Then one early evening, when he was supposed to meet my sister for their dinner date at SM-Davao, he cancelled because they had an emergency police operation. My sister, being a police officer herself understood that. She went home and a few minutes later, she got a call from their head officer that my brother in law was killed. Apparently another police tipped off the drug people. It broke our hearts to pieces. We loved him as he was our blood brother. He was one of the greatest man, father and husband I have come to know and he was still so young at that time. My sister and her children, now after 3 years had accepted the fact but I still hasn't. I still cry everytime I think of him.
The dreams. First dream I had with him, we were in a big house like my great grandmother's house. Maricar and the kids were inside the house and I was standing at the top of the stairs. He was ascending the stairs and I was so happy to see him. He was smiling so sweetly too. I greeted him, his name was Tata, "Ta! Wala lagi ka natigulang Ta! Pareho ra gihapon imong nawong sa una na buhi pa ka!" And he was happy and laughing and said to me, "Ate oi, nangatik na pod!" Then he asked me where's Mikay - that's how he lovingly called my sister. I said inside the house and I woke up. Oh, you bet I was crying so hard.
The second time he showed up in my dream, it was just fleeting. He wasn't his usual self - the happy Tata. He just told me, "Te, kinahanglan tabang si Mikay." I woke up and as soon as it was morning in the Philippines, I called my sister. I asked her how she was. She said she was having a hard time. she said the kids were sick and she is so tired. My sister hardly cry but I know she was so down at that time. I told her I was gonna help her with the bills. I tried to encourage her and how she was loved by Tata. Then she cried when I told her why I called her that early.
I told my mother of my dreams of Tata and she wished she could see Tata again even in her dreams. So why do I dream of Tata? In my second dream, he was actually sending a correct message. Is it possible that the soul can communicate our minds when we are sleeping? Is there some sense to my dreams?
