I previously wrote about a series of dreams that I had, this is an accounting of the true-life events that followed and their interpretations; brace yourself!
If you really want to be blown away by this story, read part 1 first, Premonitions in dreams dream wedding funeral two homes sharks meaning. (click HERE)
The Interpretation of ‘Grandma’s Funeral’
FUNERAL – (1) To go to the funeral of a relation or friend is a good sign to the dreamer, who will either inherit property or marry into money. (2) If you see a particular person attending the funeral either that person or some friend of his will die and leave you something. (3) To dream of a funeral service denotes an inheritance.
CRIES – If the cry is one of despair, as in the case of shipwreck or fire at sea, either you or your wife will in due course gain a great deal by speculation.
The Interpretation of ‘The Wedding’
WEDDING – To dream of being married, or a wedding, is a very unfavorable dream especially for lovers. It denotes the death of a near friend or relation, with loss of property and severe disappointments.
The Interpretation of ‘Shark Attack’
SHARK – (1) To see a shark pursuing and attacking you, denotes that unavoidable reverses will sink you into despondent foreboding. (2) To dream of sharks, denotes formidable enemies.
The Dream of ‘Two Homes‘ needed no interpretation…
The Actual Events That Occurred…
I received a phone call from my father’s ex-girlfriend Elaine, (we had never met or spoke before) she told me he had passed on. A few days later I left by airplane for his funeral. Upon landing I had to go to baggage claim and in order to do so I boarded a shuttle; the shuttle’s appearance and the view were exactly as it was in my dream.
A few days after the funeral I asked Elaine if she knew of a woman my father dated, a woman he claimed harassed him repeatedly, destroyed his precious flower garden, stalked him and caused him to be a prisoner in his own home. She laughed and said, “Your father is crazy, he is talking about me, but he always exaggerates the story.”
As time went by I was able to meet some of my dad’s friends and they all knew of Elaine. They shared many tales using the word “evil” to describe her and spoke of her repeated attempts to “take his home” from him; they all told me the home she now lives in, is that of my father; a mistake that haunted him. This was rather disturbing because none of them knew each other. Furthermore, they were all in and out of his life during different periods and I met them all individually, not as a group; one of them was a pastor.
None of them knew of my father’s passing; my father’s funeral was attended by Elaine, her family and I. She denied his loved ones the opportunity to say goodbye; she told me not to post a notice in the newspaper, she said, “no one is going to come, your father kept to himself; he didn’t have any friends.”
Bear in mind Elaine broke the news of my father’s death, paid for my airfare and accommodated me in her home; she treated me very well. As the days passed I was bothered by the many stories she shared about my father; she described someone I did not know; I did not believe her but said nothing. I asked many questions and caught her in many lies; I said nothing and did not show my hand.
When I returned to my country, I began sorting through dad’s things, I discovered many official and personal documents proving each and every story my father and his friends had shared with me about her, for those reasons I believe she was the shark in my dream; she was also the one who was knocking on my door when I awoke from that dream.
I spent much time agonizing over that and “How am I going to pay two rents?” I decided, “My family would never be in peace living in that home; it would be a constant reminder of my father’s pain and suffering and I couldn’t live with that and all the drama that came with it.
I inherited my father’s home by speculation for there was no Will and although the mortgage was very low, I was unable to make the payments; it simply was out of my budget. This really frustrated the woman whom I had left an extra set of keys; she did not have to care for the property nor watch over it, someone else was left to do that.
I had to endure her constant complaints/concerns that the bank would foreclose and that Elaine and her family were repeatedly trespassing and trying to break into the house; these complaints kept coming although I repeatedly made it clear my current home and family were my priorities. When I could no longer endure it I sent a letter via her daughter hoping and praying she would bring her mother into the light; leave it alone.
The letter stated, “…If the bank is going to take everything so be it. If I am unable to return and recoup some of my things I accept that. The things in the house are just that; things! The only thing I would want is the painting of my father’s grand uncle and again I accept if I cannot get to it in time. As for Elaine and her family I can not and will not loose any sleep over them and/or get caught up in all that drama; it is not my character. I just really need to be at peace and leave it ALL in God’s hands; I trust him completely and whatever he has in store for me, I accept and I ask that you do the same. The letter came today and is now in the hands on a lawyer. I PROMISE to communicate with you; I will send emails.”
Her daughter after confirming in writing the receipt of the above letter replied, “Since we did not hear from you and worried that the notice that mom sent you by mail stating they were going to dispose of the property and contents thereof by Feb 10. Therefore my mom went ahead got a storage facility and dismantled the beds, dining table, and removed the dishes and chinaware from cupboard etc and packed them into boxes and made arrangements with the deacons from the church to remove all of your belongings that we thought were of value to you on Tuesday February 9th to the storage facility at a cost of $35 a month to my mom hoping that you would return one day soon.”
Her response infuriated me! Not only did she deny me the right to closure and peace as requested, but she also attempted to impose an expense that was not discussed with me at any time.
Following that email she left a phone message stating that the bank had now foreclosed on the house, changed the locks and all the things I left behind are in the house “as I did not take her advice and let her put the things in storage.” The neighbors however claim my car is sitting in the middle of her driveway and she placed my things in storage. I have not yet responded to that message and have no intention of doing so.
Had I been skilled in the art of interpreting my dreams, I could have spared myself a whole lot of emotional, physical and spiritual pain; had I known Elaine was the woman my father often spoke about, I would have never given her access to his bank account and I would have demanded an autopsy. Elaine was alone with my father when he died in his home; by law an autopsy should have been done.
Dad, I have cried many tears for you for I am so deeply sorry for the pain and suffering you had to endure. I fought the fight dad, and now its over; the truth has now been told. RIP now daddy. RIP.
