Missing my Train

I'm starting to get better at getting up and writing down my dreams. I'm usually apprehensive about doing it because it takes me forever to get back to sleep. I stayed up for two hours after I wrote this one but I think it was worth it.

I'm walking in my old neighborhood on Staten Island. I meet a woman who knows me (we're both young, around our 20's) She invites me to go dancing again with her and her friends. I tell her I would go but deep down inside I'm not too excited about going. I get dressed in business clothes to go (suit and tie)

We meet up with her friends whom I feel I know. One is a Spanish speaking woman and the other is a very feminine black man. They look at me and really don't think I'm dressed right for the night. The man makes a disgusted face and touches my jacket asking me "You're gonna wear that?"

I flash to the dance hall in midtown New York back into a dream a had awhile ago. I'm dressed in different clothes, slacks, white shirt with the top 3 buttons undone and a sports jacket. It reminds me of how the guys dressed in Miami Vice. I have something around my neck. I think it's my crystal.

I notice the man I cam with is leaving so I make a dash to follow him out. I know this man but he's from my first dream.I'm trying to sneak out so the others don't see me and ask why I'm leaving. I follow him out trying to catch up. We head out to the street and the subway entrance is right outside the dance hall. As he goes down the stairs I see the Spanish speaking lady talking to someone. I think she's congratulating them on having a baby. I'm really not paying attention because I don't want her to notice me.

As I get to the stairs I hear the train entering the station. I start to run so I can reach the train in time. As hard as I try to run I'm not making any time. My body is moving in slow motion but everyone else is moving at normal speed. I'm trying really hard as I make the last landing. The uptown train is leaving and the downtown train to S.I. Ferry still has its doors open. I finally reach the platform as the train closes its doors and leaves. I missed it. I wake up.

I"m currently working on my patience and letting go of fear and worry. I think the subway part is my guides telling me the more I rush the slower I'll go so stop rushing. I think part of the dance hall is my guides telling me to stop worrying about the future and enjoy the moment. be in the now. I'm still trying to figure the first part of the dream and how this dream connects to the other dream. After this dream I realized that I did dream about these folks before and that we had already gone dancing once. In the last dream I went to the subway but the train did not come. At least it didn't come before I woke up. The other interesting thing I noticed was that the subway station in my second dream was more uptown about 52nd street. the first dream the subway station was 34th street. I used the ride the subways allot. ;o)
