Van can See the Blood (dreams 9/28/19) Janet Kuypers 9/28/19 They all thought I was a hotshot. On the outside, it seemed that I always got everything, and everything worked out perfectly for me. We were all out, in a few cars, and we were all looking for a place to park, and there was still snow and slush on the streets everywhere. The only thing I remember was managing to park my car in a spot against the snow when other strangers were trying to park there. My friends, who apparently parked farther away, were amazed, all praising that I got such a great spot. I didn't say a word and walked to a stranger’s van. My friends just sort of followed me as I walked to the van’s huge plate glass window across it... I threw my hand against it, and it shattered. All my friends were shocked at what I did, and they all slowly walked to the van to see blood in circles everywhere defining everyone in there who died. They all looked at me and asked, “What happened? Have they been shot?”, all knowing I never got out of my car — And I said, ‘I have no idea,’ because all I knew was that sometimes good things happen in my life for me, but it can come at a terrible cost.
