[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 673148, member: 18958"] I had a hard night, and I will tell you why. I had a dream, the bulk of which I do not remember, now. But I did remember when I awoke from it in the night. There was a betrayal. The woman part of a couple stole money, in a briefcase. She took it from somebody she loved. Intentionally. As I remember, it was not my money that was stolen. The rest of the dream was a chase scene. The culmination of it was that I rammed a car into the female perpetrator. Killing her. When I awoke I was convinced that the female perpetrator represented my mother. I feel pretty sure that I have been harboring anger against my mother for taking our money and for feeling it was her own. She always expressed that we had tried to take [I]her money[/I]. I think I am finally trying to come to terms with the reality of my mother and how she was to me. And the feelings of extreme anger I have turned against myself. It is not important about the money. [I]It is that it is emblematic of everything else[/I]. I am left with that a sense of enough is close at hand, but not here. Being with M and our animals in our home, the possibility of work, and learning to play with a trip to the East--seems close, but not yet here. Thank you. COPA [/QUOTE]
