Re: I Dreamed of My Dad Today

@Anonymous032819  It's a gift, isn't it...to dream of lost loved ones.  I'll dream of my DH from time to time.  Each time when I wake up I write down as much as I can remember.  Not to try to figure it out, what it means...just to re-read and remember whenever I want.  I love those dreams.

When my Dad died I was so devastated and heartbroken.  One morning I thought I was awake and when I looked up from my bed my Dad was standing next to me and he was zipping up his favorite jacket and I when I asked him not to leave he told me he had to, and then just like that I woke up.  My Dad was the most kind, handsome and smartest man I've ever known.

Re: I Dreamed of My Dad Today

The only person that is dead who I miss is my Gram. I never see her in my dreams, but when I'm very upset about something and need comfort she comes to me at night when I'm in bed, I can smell her. It's just the most spiritual thing and has never freaked me out, my Gram died when I was 19 and I'm 69 now.

Re: I Dreamed of My Dad Today

I njoy reading about other people's dreams and their thoughts of their loved ones who've passed.

 

I don't dream of my Dad often, but one I do remember vividly was a couple years ago. 

 

Most people seem to think "they" visit us in our dreams.  But in this dream I was the one to visit him.  I was travelling thru the Universe at the speed of light and my Dad met me in space.  He was dressed in a black suit with bow tie, his hair combed neatly and his brown eyes sparkled.  He was probably about 35-40 yrs. old.  He didn't speak.  He held out his arms - outstretched - and I took his hands and told him I wanted to go where he was. 

 

Suddenly he let go of my hands and I fell back to earth into my bed and woke up.  I was so disappointed to wake up back here on Earth.

 

Anyway, I hope you have more dreams and may they be sweet dreams.

Re: I Dreamed of My Dad Today

I don't dream of my deceased parents very often but I do remember one dream I had about my Dad.  

 

I was sitting at the table in the kitchen of the house I grew up in and talking to my Dad.   It's been over 50 years since I lived in that house but every detail was exactly as I remembered from years ago.  

 

I saw my Dad vividly in my dream and he looked and sounded the same as he did 50 years ago before he passed away.

 

I don't recall exactly what we were talking about but my husband woke me up because he said I was crying in my dream.  

 

That dream stayed with me for days.   I have no idea why I was crying because the dream was very pleasant.   It was just like my Dad was back with me.

Pretty much all of my deceased loved ones have come to me in my dreams; my MIL screams my name when my husband is experiencing a low blood sugar episode.  

 

I have heard my dad speak my name.  

 

My maternal grandparents came to me in a dream when my mom was sick and refusing to go to the doctor.   Papaw told me to tell mom it wasn’t her time, and get herself to the doctor!   I told her exactly what her dad had said, and she agreed to get ready to go.   

 

My aunt who committed suicide appeared in a dream standing with my uncle, holding hands.  They were both smiling.   I carried so much anger towards my aunt for taking her life, and for years I prayed to be able to let go of that anger.  After that dream, I realized my anger was gone, and knowing she is reunited with my uncle, makes me happy.   

 

My paternal grandparents passed when I was a teenager, and their deaths hit me very hard.   After my dad passed 15 years ago, I realized how I still “feel” him here, and also how I “feel” my grandparents as well.   They loved this farm so much, and worked so hard here, I think a part of them just never left.   

 

All of my messages from loved ones have made me happy.

Re: I Dreamed of My Dad Today

This makes me so sad.  I think of my mom and pray for something like what all of you have stated.  Nothing.  I somehow feel like this is a test of my faith.  It causes me to doubt the afterlife.  Thanks to everyone for sharing.

Re: I Dreamed of My Dad Today

Love reading all these posts.  I must say I have never had any of the experiences described -  Would like to as I dearly miss my parents but no-one seems to visit me.  Ah well!  Happy for all of you.
