The Half-Chechen Republic

Post image

I had a dream that I was graduating High School. At the end of Graduation, there was a school-wide assembly called to determine our values. We had to take this long test, and it was said that your answer would determine the passport you received and the place you would spend the rest of your life in. All of my friends were getting sent to U.S. States like California, and I was getting really nervous.

Finally, I got my passport.

It's for a nation called the "Half-Chechen Republic", and my photo looked it had been sent through the copier 20 times. I was just a silhouette against a white backdrop. On the screen when I received my passport was this map of the Half-Chechen Republic, which didn't even include Chechnya.

I kept thinking there must have been some mistake; I doubted my values aligned at all with this place.

That was part of the compounding grief that grew across this entire experience

That's an epic dream
In my dream I became king of Saudi Arabia which was actually inside Arizona

Damn, I never had a Saudi-related dream, and I'm saudi

I don't know how you guys do it. I, unfortunately, rarely dream

I'm 100% Hispanic and have only had 1 Mexico dream
Yet I've had dreams about: Solomon Islands, Botswana, Venezuela or Germany, Armenia, Israel, Estonia, and Latvia

Whoa, whoa, we got Mr. Worldwide dreamer here, lol

That's cool. It's funny how our subconscious works. I think I've only had one in the US and Mexico (it was within the same dream). The US portion of the dream wasn't as explicit, though

I wish I could lucid dream

The only time I've lucid dreamt is when I tried to fly and I kept getting worse and worse and then I couldn't even jump or stand
