I had a strange dream. Now, I have to tell you that alot of my dreams are very vivid and very detailed, but this one was just strange. I dreamed that I was on a bus that transports people and the dead, but the dead have a special stop where the driver escorts them off the bus to their destination. Now, if you are living person, you have cannot get off till the last stop, but if you decide to get off earlier, then you join the dead. No one on the bus knows who the dead are till the bus stops at their special destination and the driver escorts them off, in the meantime, they look just like everyone else.
In my dream, the bus driver had too many passengers and he asked if anyone would like to get off earlier and give their seat to someone that really wants to stay living. A man got up and said that he would do it. The driver then told him that he can write one last word on a piece of paper and leave it on the bus. As the man who decided to give his place on the bus to someone else got up to leave, he looks at me and then walks away leaving a piece of paper with the word "uncertainty" on it. I pick up the paper and read it and then I watch him as the bus driver escorts him off the bus.
I woke up feeling a little confused, but I think I know what this means. Are we ready to face our Lord? Are we ready for death to come knocking? I think, for myself, the answer is no, and I have uncertainty about death because I feel that I'm not the best person that I could be right now and so I'm not ready to face my Lord when the hour comes for me to go to my "destination". I feel that the dream was about being uncertain about decisions in life and of course, if death was to come right now, I would be uncertain about the kind of person I am and who I really want to be, someone better, someone kinder, someone who isn't afraid of being judged by her Lord.
