I don&#8217;t remember how I made my escape from the black hole horror. Judging by the text on the meditation lecture flyer the dream was scribbled on, I&#8217;m guessing the date was sometime in spring of 2005.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><b>undated dream<\/b><br \/>\nDark outline of a shadowy figure was sucking my non-earthly body (soul? spirit?) into her humanoid-shaped black hole. She was an Asian woman who revealed her true nature as a black hole that sucks people in. I reacted by concentrating on my center<sup><span style=\"color: red;\">*<\/span><\/sup>, putting all my power into it, and stood strong on my ground while holding on the back of a car for leverage. She successfully sucked two other people in. She tried again to suck me into her black hole. And again I &#8216;centered&#8217; myself and held on for dear life on another car. I could feel the magnetic pull. It was scary. But I successfully avoided getting swallowed up by the evil black hole.<\/p>\n<p>I was in an elevator going down. I was afraid for some reason that the elevator was going to malfunction and the car will plummet down the shaft. I crouched down on the floor, preparing for impact in the event the cable snapped. It didn&#8217;t. I seem to have an extreme fear of elevators.<\/p>\n<p><sup><span style=\"color: red;\">*<\/span><\/sup> <small>It&#8217;s an aikido thing<\/small>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Sometimes it freaks me out to see how my forgotten dreams from long ago manifest themselves in my waking reality years later.<\/p>\n<p>P.S.: Just because someone with a bad mullet offers you free Kool Aid, it doesn&#8217;t mean you should drink it.<\/p>\n<p>[originally published on <a href=\"http:\/\/bitterblacktea.livejournal.com\/219730.html\">LiveJournal<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I finally finished unpacking my last box from moving into my apartment and found a piece of paper with a long forgotten dream hastily scribbled on it.
