Man, I am tired of these bear dreams.
I was standing in a heavily wooded area. There were houses in the woods.
As I was walking, I noticed a huge bear. he was older and had gray hair.
I started running towards the house wondering about my family. I didnt know where they were. I felt that attack was imminent. I never really saw them in the dream. But, theuy did come to mind.
I foound an old truck that had a ton of muscle. But, the pedals lined up vertically in the middle of the floorboard not horizontally, like you would expect. No matter, I got the car into gear (it was a manual transmission), and I started driving. I remember thinking that I could mow anything over with this car, but I wondered what attack by the bear against it would look like. Would I be harmed?
As I was driving towards the house (I was looking for the main ranger guy), I saw a lesser ranger guy that I knew coming down a pathway with a few folks behind him. I went to talk to him about the bear but I dont remember actually speaking to him.
I kept going to towards the house. I was concerned for everyone’s lives. It was getting dark outside. Visibility was going.
As I came around the wooded trail which curved to the right, near my house, I saw the bear down at the bottom of the hill. There were a bunch of dogs attacking him.
I was out of the truck and on foot heading towards my house, but I couldnt see much. I was kinda feeling my way and knew that I was close. All of a sudden, there was commotion right in front of me. I couldnt tell if it were the bear or what. A dog came right up to me, and I thought that he was going to attack me, but he just looked at me and then took off running like dogs do.
I never saw the bear up front. It never attacked me. But, I knew it would. I was thinking, “what would it be like if it did attack me?” “Should I play dead?” “Should I run?” “Would I be mauled?”
I woke up.
