I remember a dream that I had a few years ago that is still crystal clear to me. It began with me being at an outdoor festival and there was a stage where a band was playing in the center of the festival. I was talking and laughing with some of my friends, enjoying the music and atmosphere. Suddenly, we all stopped what we were doing and realized that a thick layer of clouds had moved in and the sky had become dark and ominous. We looked up to see a figure standing in the clouds, looking down at us with a menacing expression on its face. We were all so surprised and terrified at the same time, but the figure just continued to stare and then he slowly descended from the clouds and landed in front of us. His presence made me feel incredibly uneasy and I was so scared that I couldn’t even move. As he got closer and closer, I could almost make out a distinct shape and I noticed that he was a man wearing a long, dark cloak and a hood over his face. He stepped forward and in a slow and deep voice said, “Your time is coming . . . prepare yourselves!” We were all so frightened and confused that we just stood there and stared until he suddenly vanished and the clouds cleared away, leaving us all in shock. After the dream, I couldn’t shake the feeling that he wanted to tell us something important and I felt as if I still had so many unanswered questions. Even though it was just a dream, it felt so real and vivid that it still stays with me to this day.
