You Found Me

GeeLyria · 2011-07-02T15:51:38Z

Hi guys. As you may probably know (if you actually know me, Lol) I'm a strong Christian. xD And well, I had a dream with this Main Character and random stranger o.0 a couple nights ago. I found pretty interesting, so I thought it'd be a good idea to write down, and I did. So here it goes... I wandered around an empty land. No light. No floor. No sky. Nowhere to rest. Nowhere to stand. No purpose for life, or anything at all. It was just sequences, figures and numbers, hypotheses, conclusions and microscopes. "What can't be seen, won't be believed," I heard. I was between them all, observing, but I couldn't understand their reasons, nothing made sense. They said there's not such a thing as 'wrong or right'. I could see no light. "This isn't my place," I repeated out loud. Am I part of the improvement or am I part of the destruction? I wondered. I tried explaining that sometimes what you want is not what you need, and that sometimes what you need turns out to be what you really want... what you least expected. I was floating on the air. I wasn't flying, I felt stuck. I was wanting something more, but I was looking it in the wrong place. Craving for the most worn out word in the world: Love. But I wondered if the feeling was worn out as well. Or maybe it's just... extinct , I thought. Where was it possible to find love on this planet, when the constant fight between us humans is part of our daily basis? War. Murders. Lies. Betrayals. Thefts. Where could I find a rest? Peace? Barefoot. Tired. Hopeless. "But not helpless, nor alone," I heard a deep voice say, it was soft and sweet. Still, I was afraid. My tummy experienced an earthquake because of the nervousness. I searched the room with my eyes, and I could still hear the echo, "I love you, love me as well. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." I trembled with fear. "Ignore that!" I said to myself as I closed my eyes. I took the iPod out of my pocket and put my earphones on. The lyrics repeated what I mentioned before, darkness. No light: No hope, no love, no faith, no peace. That was all I'd ever known. Suddenly I started feeling weak, I was about to faint when someone embraced his arms around me. I could finally breathe. He took the iPod on his hands and click stop, I just let Him this time. Something inside of me told me to follow Him, 'cause everything was going to be alright. And He carried me. Sitting on his lap, I looked up at him and He looked back at me with love, the sweetest and most indescribable eyes, "Do not fear, I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God." My soul finally found rest... in Him. He skipped the song and showed me a new one, this one talked about everything I was looking for, everything I truly need. "Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life," it explained. I finally felt it, and it was real: Joy! He's my savior. He turned my wailing into dancing! Sometimes it may seem as everything is wrong, but small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. All in God's timing, 'cause that's the perfect time. I learned something, and I wrote down on my heart, "Let Jesus himself pick your songs, don't hesitate, before the battery dies." 'Cause Jesus has plans for all of us, plans to prosper us and not to harm us, plans to give us hope and a future. “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation." ~Mark 16:15

You should ALWAYS, always always alwaysalways write your dreams down. That's how God communicates.

Speaking of which, you should submit the dream here. It sounds like the majority of the meaning has already been revealed to you, (it was kinda obvious XD) but they could provide further insight.

Especially go there if you have a dream that seems bizarre, doesn't make sense, that you can't understand, whatever. They're good people, and they take care to listen to what God's saying.

The title, by the way, screams "I'm taking The Fray(?)'s lyrics and spoofing them/taking them and running with it/ripping them off!"

.....which doesn't really make a difference in the long run.......

The title of a dream is actually very important, and only the dreamer can give an accurate title. That's where the "weight" of the dream lies, or something like that. It's the anchor.

Feelings are also incredibly important. Good job! You did well. Let me know about further dreams, k? I'm really interested in them, and taking a dream class.

I just want to say good on you. As many of the above reviewers have stated, I too am a Christian. I love that you write about your faith, how many of us would be brave enough to do that? I'm also so happy to see such positive feedback to your story, even from people who don't believe the same things. Your piece was profound and moving. Original. I loved it.

Well done, Solvalery (unique name, by the way

) !
Though I found a couple of things that needed to be revised for grammatical mistakes, I believe Ranger51 has thoroughly picked them out

I am a Muslim by religion &, though you're a Christian & meant it for the God you believe in, I could relate to your thoughts & feelings as they were the same towards my own God. Truly, God is great

From the start of this piece, I was sucked in &, believe me when I say, that doesn't happen usually for me. I really liked the way you gave the reader an insight to your thoughts & feelings & it helped me pick my way through your character. So, I hope you'll continue writing such great stuff & good luck

Cheers!
