I was walking along a sidewalk and I saw a group of evil people who had placed a man in a bag and in another bag. Then they dropped the man down a very long green hole.

Soon after, I ran into a nearby store and told the person on my left to call 911 and the person on my right to call the police, but then I realized that the person on the right didn't have to call anyone.

Soon the police came, but they were more like evil characters from the comics. They were looking around and smelled a smell of something like rotten food. They said 'here' and then left.

Then there were regular policemen and they were drilling the ground. Then, they lifted up the bag with the man in it.

He was taken to the hospital, but then came back very quickly. I said something like I didn't expect him to be alive.

Apparently there had been an event earlier like this but I didn't save him that time.

The person I saved was apparently a famous person, because I recognized them easily. The next day, I expected to be in a lot of papers and be the talk of the town, but nobody cared.

Every time I ever saw my rescue of the celebrity mentioned anywhere, someone had always gotten it wrong. Either, it was in a park or I used a phone to get the police instead of going to the store.

I was very disappointed because I wanted to be in the spotlight, but no one cared.

Hi Lizzy

I feel the key to your dreams are in the last line of your posting:

You say 'I wanted to be in the spotlight, but no one cared.'

There is a part of you that wants the limelight, to be on stage, to be in the spotlight, to be known. For what? What is the waking life you can do, has a talent for, is very good at that? What is that, if you really worked at it, could make you famous?

But instead of using that natural talent, you are burying that part of you under the ground. (Hence a famous person is being dropped done a hole by evil people - evil people being the part of you that stops you using your talents and stops you becoming famous for using your talent.)

In your dream no-one recognises your achievement (that is, saving the person). The police (authority, the people who control, the people who make us obey the rules) who you call on to help don't recognise your contribution either. The papers get the story wrong and don't give you credit where it's due.

OK. So in your waking life why do you feel you need other people to recognise you in order to be famous - i.e. use your talent? Why can't you recgonise your own talent and do it your own?

My feeling is that somewhere in the past, probably when you were a child, you have had your natural tendency to show your talent and 'be on the stage' pushed down and repressed. And somehow, you now feel that the only way for it to rise to the surface is for someone else to recognise it. You feel you need the permission of other people to be talented and well known.

This may be off beam but I hope it gives you something to think about.

Regards
