jazaakAllahu khair gals... DR, jaani, sumi
my situation was actually more like a nightmare. i'm sorry if i should've been more clear about that. i'm not sure who the person was or how i knew them. n i don't really have a younger sibling although i AM very protective of the person i dreamt about ... but the situation felt all too real and so did the emotion. it really bothered me n i had to get it off my mind. plus the fact that this does happen to people in real life made it all the more significant.
i've always thought i'd be too good at cutting people out of my life. i wouldn't be too obvious about it. n i certainly won't be aggressive in that regard. it'll be more like a calm acceptance that certain relationships have reached their expiration date n it won't be healthy to pursue them anymore... so you forgive n forget. you try to avoid the person. if they initiate communication or contact, you decline with the politeness of a stranger. sure, you say salaam to them n smile in social situations but it's as if you're meeting them for the first time. they don't mean anything more than a random person to you. all your history together, if you had one, has been erased. it's like they no longer exist. you let them go. you move on. there's no anger. there's no regret. only the hope that perhaps you learned something from the unfortunate experience. you learned not to let people take advantage of you. you learned not to trust them with your loved ones. you learned to forsee consequences of associating with people like that. you learned something...
perhaps i'm fortunate life happens to me while i'm asleep. and i try to learn before it actually happens while i'm up and about. i don't know how detailed most people's dreams/nightmares are but mine are always too detailed. not just in terms of colors and lighting but also in terms of feeling n sensation. i wish more of my nights were dreamless. cuz once i wake up from a dream, there's no more sleep. n even if there is, it's not without more dreams. khair... alhumdulillah for everything. cuz if it weren't for the one, i wouldn't know to appreciate the other.
