A Land Before TIme


This is the account of a recent dream I had. After waking up from the dream I felt as if I had just come back from a long trip or journey. Whether that journey was through time or space or even both, I do not know. Now, some of this does not make sense so don’t worry about it. A lot of it did not make sense to me either, but I am hoping it will start to sometime soon. Anyways, here is my dream; I have tried to describe everything as well as I can while the memory of it is still fresh in my mind.
I remember throwing my bike over the ridge. Behind me was a vast beach that went on as far as my eyes could see. I started to climb the steep ridge and when I reached the top a paradise was revealed to me. In the distance I could see a majestic mountain range lining the entire horizon. Over them a clear blue sky with a warm and loving sun just right above me, lighting all that I could see. And towards the West I saw a grand mountain leading the mountain range on one end of this horizon. This leading mountain was bigger than the rest in the range. It stood taller and prouder than any other mountain I have ever set eyes upon. Just the sight of it intimidated me. Covering the roots of the mountains was a thick forest more green and beautiful than any forest in existence today. Each tree was stronger and nobler than any tree that ever existed. I could see the trees swaying in the breeze (for my eyesight in this dream was the same as if I were wearing binoculars) inviting me to rest under their sturdy branches. I also saw a winding river flowing from the mountains into a great lake. Its waters reflected the sunlight so well that it was almost too magnificent to look at. From where I was I could see the blue clear water and I knew that I could not be wrong in thinking that that water would have been the sweetest I would ever taste. Upon seeing these sights together I started to weep, for I never imagined a place as beautiful as the one beheld to me at that moment could ever exist. I started to beckon the couple below me to witness the magnificent sight that was before me. Once they too had reached the top of the ridge they had the same reactions as I; seeing this land before time…I wish that I could go back.
