I had one of the most frightening dreams last night.  It wasn’t a horror filled dream at all, but it was frightening nonetheless.   In this dream, my family and I were staying at a hotel and the following day we were supposed to depart for a cruise.

Well, the following day came and everyone was packed to leave for the cruise and I was downstairs in the hotel eating breakfast at the hotel’s restaurant.  My mother walks into the restaurant and tells me to go upstairs to my room and pack my clothes so that we can prepare to leave the hotel to head to the dock to board the ship.

Now, here’s where the dream gets scary for me….

I go to the elevator in the lobby to head upstairs to my room and each time I get off of the elevator on the floor of my room, it’s the same floor each and every time.  What I perceive as the correct floor, never is.  Try as I might, I can never get to my room, even though I pushed the right floor number on the elevator to get to my room.

Even when I decide to take the stairs to get to my room, I still can’t find my room because each time I open the door in the stairwell, it’s the same floor as the one I got off in the elevator.  It’s like I’m going in circles.  Sorta like when you’re watching a television show where people get lost in the woods and they pass the same tree every time.

It was like something out of the Twilight Zone.  I could never get to my room throughout the dream and I woke up with my body spent.  I was literally out of breath like I’d been running a marathon.  I am still baffled by this dream and I don’t know what it’s trying to tell me.
