Dream:
A lady called me and I knew she was looking for me, but all she spoke was Spanish. She spoke so fast, I couldn't understand--not that I understand Spanish. I kept asking her habla ingles? Then all I remember is being in the house next to my old house in Brooklyn. God was mad at my family (my uncle) or at me, so he sent something celestial, but almost demonic, to punish whoever was in my old house. Throughout the entire dream, we were just anticipating it. It was completely silent, except for our rustling. I felt half-comforted that I was wearing my cross, but that didn't mean anything. Eventually, I forgot I had my cross and all this jewelry appeared. Rubies and sapphires on rings and necklaces. This man and I were rushing through them, trying to put on as many gaudy pieces as possible, deluding ourselves into thinking we can protect ourselves with it. Though I hate gaudy expensive jewelry to begin with.
Then I realized, when it was almost time, that I am a fool. I started to take off all the jewelry. Logically, God was going to punish me more if I had on all this stupid jewelry, that I just should take his punishment if whatever he sent was coming for us too. Then when the creature God sent finally came, all I heard were loud noises outside the house. I can't even describe what kind of noises they were, but they were retched and didn't exist in any scope of human life. I can only correlate some sounds to bones snapping and slaughter.
I was trying to figure out how frightening this creature was. I never saw it, but I could feel how unnatural and powerful it was. The closest thing I can imagine to it is Bahamut.
I finally manage to get off my ass and accompany my aunt to the hospital to check her status for medicare. My heart hurts to see how neglected people who don't speak English are. So many who are in need of health insurance have such a difficult time obtaining it. I wish I paid better attention to my Chinese upbringing and spoke my language fluently so that at the very least I could translate for Chinese folk.
I made a promise to God yesterday. I said that if I ever make it, if I ever make enough money and achieve my dream, I will go out of my way to help people. I promised God that if I had the opportunity that I won't slack anymore, that I'll work to the bone and make it.
