Dream (I'm dead)
Had a strange dream today where I was a ghost. The emphasis seemed to be more on that I had just died though. I was in a building, and the color orange springs to mind, but there were a lot of people sitting around a table. Everyone was someone at work. I was happy to see them but no one could see me except for a few people, which surprised me. My astronomy professor could see me, he even hugged me, and two other people could. These were the main three people who could see me but it felt as if a smattering of others could too.
The entire dream had a positive, festive, getting ready to move on feeling to it. I felt that while I was freshly dead I could relate to the people around me, I felt that the longer I existed as a spirit the more I would lose touch with humanity. Almost like when you just return from camp and the memories and experiences of it are fresh in mind, but fade away as time goes on.
One of the people who could see me I used as a medium to speak to the others in the room. Largely what I communicated was that death wasn't a scary thing or anything to fear. Not really in anything I explicitly said, but just in the manner of my communication. I joked around with them the way I would if I were alive. I also noticed as time went on it became easier to express my feelings about people, through my medium.
Towards the end of the dream I felt my hold on humanity slipping, as if it were time to say goodbye. I never left the building I was in, I never tried, I also never walked through any walls, I behaved as if I were a human in that regard. I actually woke up after having this dream and subsequently went back to sleep. I guess I really wanted to remember this dream.
