This is a dream I had over twenty years ago. I have always remembered it because not only was it a premonition about what would happen in my future life, it was also one of the scariest dreams I have ever had.

I was strolling in the park. It was a beautiful sunlit day, the flowers were blooming and the birds were singing in the trees. Everything was super colorful and vibrant. People were everywhere having fun and relaxing. There was lots of noise from kids playing and running, dogs barking, and people talking. Everybody was having a good time. Then all of a sudden all the people and animals disappeared. Everything turned to black and white; there were no more colors at all. Aditionally, all of a sudden everything was desolate and still, it was a very dramatic shift. Then the weather began to storm. The wind was furious and howling. It was raining really hard and there was lightening. Crack, snapped the lightening bolts across the black stormy, rainy skies. I was all alone and scared in the pitch black except for the light coming from the frequent lightening bolts. I was getting soaked with rain. It was almost like a cemetery instead of a park. It was really eerie and spooky. I looked up and in my path there was a giant statue of a man, all in white marble. He had a very stern look on his face and he was pointing a long arm with hand and pointed finger at me. His eyes were dark and ominous in the white marble and he was glaring at me. His glare was petrifying and foreboding…I woke up shivering and shaking, and feeling somehow that I would meet this presence again sometime in the future, and I did. It was a premonition of my future, now past, divorce, and he was my ex-husband. He is still pointing that finger at me.
