Following the advice of Mia and her second statement as a means to ‘better know her’ from February 3rd’s [2025] message to me; my dream this night was an odd one. I was attending a high school reunion (it would have been the 25th years-later reunion). I had arrived early, while others were still decorating and setting up for the evening’s affair.

      I was performing/practicing (of my own choosing), something that I have done many times in previous dreams during my lifetime. It is a sort of telekinesis, but involves my body. Essentially; I could ‘lift and press’ myself in a forward position, in order to propel myself forward without walking. And by doing so, I could move very quickly. I guess it would better be envisioned as levitation.

      Except, my toes must remain in contact with the ground and drag across it, while I moved. If my toes ever broke contact, so too would my ability to propel forward and drift across the ground. I suppose I could liken it to ice skating? The feeling would be similar; as I moved, I “slid” across the surface, my toes dragging behind. And there were no sudden stops. I had to will myself to slow. And ‘turns’ were a sliding-curve that I had to master, or else my concentration would brake. I did this for a time, room to room, circling tables, desks, chairs, until other former students and old acquaintances began to arrive.

      Many familiar faces begin appearing in the growing crowd. I recall trying to spot a girl named Miranda Rusco. Her and I didn’t know each other well, but I had always been interested in her. She wasn’t popular, but nor was I. A bookish girl, she seemed that she would be genuine and sweet. But I hadn’t the courage back then to initiate conversation with girls. I didn’t spot her though.

      I saw Tracy Landis and spoke with her, I had known her since daycare, way before elementary school. She popped up often throughout my life, at various stages & schools. Back then, I was sure that we were destined to marry.

      I saw someone else, who I was absolutely certain didn’t attend my high school, and she stuck out like a sore thumb. Where she was, there was a vacuum of attention between herself and others (*my perspective*). What I mean is; if I were to look at this woman; ALL my attention would focus solely on her. All other people, commotion and activity would fall away into the background and disappear. {*𝐼𝑡 𝑤𝑎𝑠 𝑎𝑠 𝑖𝑓 𝑛𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑒𝑙𝑠𝑒 𝑒𝑥𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝑚𝑦 𝑎𝑡𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑛𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜𝑤𝑎𝑟𝑑𝑠 ℎ𝑒𝑟*}. She was a bit larger/taller than average, had long wavy fiery red hair, a sweet and loving face & smile, and very large and captivating eyes. The color was difficult to determine at that distance, but the quality of radiance suggested light blue and/or green.

      I knew that this woman didn’t attend the school and wasn’t here officially for the reunion. But I also felt, with certainty, that I “knew” her. That I had known her for a long while, she was very familiar to me and I had met her multiple times in the past.

      Although I felt I knew her, she didn’t seem to turn and see me, or acknowledge me. Then I lost sight of her as I was bumped in line, to add my name to a registry in order to participate in a drawing for gifts. Others were in line who I did recognize; Melanie Underwood, Amber Hicks, Lemuel, Colin and many many more. I said hello to Melanie to my left and Amber to my right, but when I did; Amber was smiling at me coyly and began to flirt openly. Eventually taking me {*𝑚𝑦 𝑓𝑎𝑐𝑒*} up in her hands and kissing me deeply and passionately right at the line, to the jeering, cat-calling and laughter of all those around us! Hah.
