An account

In many of my past dreams, especially the ones I take personal meaning from and learn from, there is usually a guiding, protective, or teaching figure watching over me. For some reason, this person always manifests himself as a big black guy haha. I had a lucid dream this morning where I asked the dream for some guidance on a difficult situation I have been going through. Immediately a door opened in front of me. I walked through and saw a group of people. A tall older black man was among them. I walked up to him and asked if he was my guide. He nodded. I grew excited. I then asked for his name. He said, "Legend." I immediately felt the power behind the name, though it also reminded me of <PERSON> from the movie "I am Legend." I was half in awe and half amused. He then told me to follow him. I did. We sat down with a group of people eating the most delicious looking maccarroni and cheese I have ever seen. The whole time we were sitting there he kept making me laugh. He would make funny faces at me with mac and cheese all over his face, and I was laughing at it like I was a little kid. I felt like a little kid meeting his long lost father, and my dad in real life felt like more of a friend than a father compared to this figure. I remember him saying, "I love you," much like a father would to his kid...I said, "I love you too." The love emotion was overwhelming. I was crying for joy and laughing at the same time. It was absolute bliss. ...and then a text message woke me up haha. In his own way, I believe the experience itself was the solution to my problem that I had inquired about in the first place. My guide was showing me to laugh and be joyful, rather than stress over my "problems."

If this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
