My mother and I were going to be traveling by train. I got on the train and then realized that she hadn't. I frantically tried to get the train to stop so I could go back and get her. I remember running through the train, on and on, like I was was going back in time to before the train took off to get her. I knew she was crying because I had left her. I feel that I did find her but that part is hazy.

I felt real emotion in this dream. On pondering it, knowing that all aspects in a dream are me, I realize that I feel like I left an aspect of myself and that I was/am trying to find it. Is it my motherly instincts that I'm looking for? Living with my daughter who is an alcoholic, do I feel that I'm not doing enough to help her? I'm not really sure if this is what it's about. Any thoughts on this?

I also dreamed that my daughter was having me listen to a song recorded by a man she loved. I wasn't paying attention at the time. When I went to listen to it, she got mad at me. Are these two dreams connected?

I just remembered that today was/is my mother's birthday. She would have been 96. Wonder if this has anything to do with it.

Thanks for your comments Spooky. This is something for me to think about.

Love, Mairlyn
