Thoughts.

I was running. Running with my dad across the sidewalk.I don't remember seeing any other beings around us. No raindrops from above, hitting my skin whatsoever,but it gave me an impression that it was actually raining. That place was hugely familiar. (100m from my house actually) The shoplots empty and the sidewalk filled with mud and gushing muddy water from the streets. Flood.

It was like end of the world.We weren't running away. I don't remember the feeling of fear. But we were just running. Then I saw it. Lying limp on a fallen tree bark was an orange kitten. I was deeply relieved that Ive found a pet I could save. I took it in my arms carefully,almost tearing. ....mew.

Then for the next moment,my dad and I were surrounded by 3 fierce looking dogs. (in the midst of flood?) It was clear that the dogs didn't liked the cat's presence. It's in their glare. I did everything I could to frighten the dogs away and run away from them. The next thing I know, I'm taking RapidKL bus back home (wait,wasn't it flooding?) and surprisingly,there were many people in the bus. But this time, I don't recall my dad's presence. All I had in mind was to bring the kitten home and have it cleaned. Oh, i remember naming the cat chingchong or linglong.


Then the dream ended.


Yeah, it was only just a dream.

Dreams could be so puzzling, but I believe it connects to every part of us. The hidden anxieties and worries, something which was overlooked or rather unexpected, or just a painted scene of what's swirling in our thoughts and actions. Minus the drama.
