Thanks so much, bil, for your comments.
I haven't been dreaming as much lately, maybe because I'm on an AD where I have to take so much stuff to get to sleep that I'm really out.
I've had lots of dreams about cars. Usually, I'm at the wheel, but the car is out of control. Even if the car isn't going that fast, the brakes never work. Those dreams are usually really exhausting, because I'm working so hard to push the brakes down so that the car will stop.
I also have dreams about floods-- usually much worse floods than the one in this one. So maybe that's a good sign? Usually the water is really fierce and it's overwhelming wherever I am-- often a house near the ocean. Or sometimes I'm on a very lonely, harsh, steep beach and the tide is coming in very fast and I don't think I'll make it up the hill fast enough. Those are very very frightening.
What you say brought to mind that when I said the girl was like an image from a poem, I was unconsciously thinking of my favorite poem, "Resolution and Independence" by Wordsworth. In the poem, the speaker goes on a walk and runs into an old man on a moor. (Wordsworth lived near the moors.) Anyway, it's a really great poem.
I think the girl is a hopeful image of some sort, but I don't know what sort. I've never had a girl in any of my dreams, though.
I'd be interested in hearing some of your dreams.
