Fears

I have ALWAYS dreamt about snakes. That is my one true fear is snakes. Ever since I was a little girl almost every night I would wake up terrified because of a dream about a snake. I think I spent most of my nights in my parents room with them.



Even now I still do this... Ed would often times find me standing on the bed scared to move. I have always wandered what that meant because I hardly ever dreamt about anything else or I would not dream at all.



I have been told that it was because I was a mischievous child. Not that I believed that... I mean I was sweet..... ok maybe not too sweet!



Then a couple of weeks ago I had the same reoccurring dream about a snake only this time I killed the snake. This has never happened. I was so happy, I woke up the next morning and exclaimed to Ed "I killed the snake". Being Ed he was also happy for me but I am sure he was thinking.. what a loony!



Now for the strange part, I have not had a dream about a snake since!!!!! Before I couldn't even look at a snake on t.v. without dreaming about it at night. Even when I didn't see one I still had the dream at least 3 nights a week... FOR MY WHOLE LIFE!



What does this mean?? I have no idea but I have slept better and not had to worry about dreaming about snakes. I guess I really killed the snake for good! I sure hope so!!
