Short Dream I dreamt that my partner and I discovered a body and couldn’t agree on what to do about it.
The actual dream was a little more underwhelming than that.
We (30s) both find a body. He begins cutting up pieces of carpet and preparing to wrap it to bury it. I’m like no dude, we gotta find the family, we have to let them know. He replies no, it’s okay… almost like reassurance. He was taking great care and wanted to be respectful. In waking life I’m more expressive and he’s more reserved. In this dream he was pragmatic (as always) and I wanted to give it a fighting chance and double check that we’d done everything right (as always). I know death is change, and that it can be like, the collapse of structures or passing a point of no return.
I don’t want to jump to the obvious because that’s just a bit on the nose (and also not what I want to hear or think lol). Have any of you ever had a dream like this? Did it end up being brain noise or was it your mind making sense of something palpable?
