I am in what looks like Fred Flintstone’s bowling alley. I am bowling with someone. I don’t know who. But I am using small lumpy rocks – very small. I throw them down the lane and am lucky if the big misshapen pins even jiggle. Mostly the stones/rocks fly through/between the pins. I am very frustrated and decide to find a regular heavier, bigger bowling ball. I walk to a rack of balls. The first couple I pick up seem hollow and just about weightless. A man points and says “try those over there.” I pick up a ball that is heavy enough but one side is flat although the holes fit my fingers . I take it to my alley and whip it at the pins. Before I do that I laugh and hold the ball up and say “what do you think about this baby?” All the pins fall down and suddenly I am outside. The sun is coming up and I appear to be in a desert, or a place without a lot of trees. There is a huge pit in front of me and we are burying a VW that is full of garbage. Right before they pull the top over it, I yell “wait” and I reach in and pick out one piece of paper that is gunky and stained from being in the garbage. The sun comes up further and things get brighter. I wake up. I don’t know what was on the paper.
All along the margins of this dream I have made notes… by the lumpy little bowling rocks i have noted “little effort? nothing happening?” By the sentence where I search for a new ball i have written “false starts?” Also “things will not go smoothly. Look for the unorthodox/not normal”. By the place where all the pins fall down with the weird ball I have noted ” take things into my own hands”…. where we are burying the VW I have noted “putting the whole thing behind – begins to get better” Where I stop them right before the final cover and pull out a piece of gunky paper I have noted “take lesson learned from the experience” and then at the end “all turns out well”
Dreamer’s comments: I think my notes covered this one…. One problem… I don’t know what the lesson was LOL!
