Do Dreams Mean Something? Maybe YES

A helicopter is circling down with its tail on fire. It is a clear crash on the narrow valley road with the high cliffs on one end and a river on the other end about a hundred feet below. The next thing as it happens is flames...and more flames and damage... The rescue begins...

And the phone rings..It is not night anymore, it is early morning and you are woken up by the taboo of a phonecall ringing at a strange time. "Hey there, we are the neighbours of your Aunt who has gone to New Zealand, there has been an robbery at their abandoned home in one of the plush areas of Khanna (a town in Punjab close to Ludhiana). You need to come and set things back.'

Well, within the green fields and wet soil of the Chandigarh-Ludhiana drive way, I almost forgot what had just happened. I could see the eyes of the thieves who had done the robbery on every object in the home amidst the scatter.

And there pops up a book 'The Interpretation Of Dreams' by Sigmund Freud. As i flip through the book amidst the robbery finding myself a quite place, I recall the Helicopter Crash and the pages turn Faster now..

'YOU WILL TRAVEL TODAY FOR AN UNPLEASANT EVENT THAT HAS HAPPENED'

And yes, as you read it, we did.
