11.2.15 dream. The brutality of man



On the 11.2.15 as I woke up I thought of writing the experience I had in my dream but I lots of activities took my time so am writing this now after having another dream on the 12.2.15. I want to however in this section write about the experience of 11.2.15 first. It was in a Nigerian setting again and I found myself in an environment where bad boys had some freedom to take advantage of the weak. In a group of about ten surrounding a boy screaming for help they kept smashing his head with their foot and rejoicing at his cry. I went a bit closer to see if I can identify some of this boys but to not avail. When they are through with him and all dismissed one of they came towards me with smiles saying "today's meeting was fun". I remembered I have met him once and we have played ps2 together somewhere I cant remember vividly. Shortly the police arrived and started arresting everyone around the scene. I allowed myself to be arrested with the aim of telling exactly what I saw and at least point that boy that met me so that he can lead the police to his colleagues. Things in the dream didn't appear too clearly as I write now but I could remember that I tried to call the attention of the police on duty but they have refused to hear me out. It was in my struggle to air my view that I woke up.

As I thought of the dream, I knew alot of things must have gone wrong and I prayed over the dream.

Lessons derivable from the above:
1. May be God wanted to show that good people are most times imprisoned unjustly and blindly

2. There is possibility that the bad boy was freed because the police didn't want to actually stop the crime but are more interested in the money friends and family will pay them for bailing. That also may inform their action of arresting alot of people and not hearing them out.

3. In the process of doing good or trying to do good there are challenges or obstacles or fears but be steadfast and persistent. I know in my struggle one person (ordinary, police, parent, friend, another good person) will hear me out and act. This is because you do not know the next victim (may be your son or daughter or parent) and another good person will do like me. And crime will reduce. On the other hand, if we keep quiet and nothing, then we create a good environment for crimes or evil.

4. Police do your job well. Money and material wealth is vanity. Infact, as much as I know ill-gotten wealth don't last and are faced with problems that takes it. At last you will wish to be poor, good and healthy.

Please add experiences or lessons if you want. Thanks and God bless you as we make the world a better place for all.
