A friend of mine is planning to travel to a country where there’s currently ongoing protesting. Media coverage shows that things are mostly violent which is a normal concern, however some people are saying things are normal as long as you avoid protest areas, she’s getting mixed ‘reviews’.

Her mum has been begging her not to go but she’s reluctant to cancel because

1. Her boyfriend who invited her on the trip in the first place has put up a lot of money for a trip that would’ve otherwise been free for him if he’d gone on his own (he’s travelling for work).

2. She still lowkey wants to go

She has explained her dilemma to him, he understands and has told her he doesn’t mind if she doesn’t go but she feels bad about the efforts he’s gone to.

To add to her worrying, her mum told her pastor and the pastor came back to her the next day about a bad dream or feeling he had about her travelling. When she told me I was a bit skeptical of the pastor because of the timing of the dream (after she’d told him), she felt the same way as me.

As it is now she still plans on going however today I had a dream about something bad happening. I don’t know if it’s indeed a foreshadowing or just a dream, it’s not like I’ve been thinking about it regularly (if at all) so the fact that I had a dream is pretty random, in fact the last time I spoke to her about it was over a week ago and it hasn’t crossed my mind since. I believe in the spiritual but I’m not that spiritual if that makes sense.

Anyway, my question is should I tell her about my dream or just keep it to myself?

Mynd44 dominique could you please help me push this to FP as I’d like as many answers as possible

Give the specifics, which country and what's the dream.

I think fear has shaped your thinking.

i'll advice dat u tell her,u can't say,dreams might come true

nzeobi:

Yeah it’s possible, but I don’t recall being fearful at all when discussing with her

Anty for the past 1week i have been dying in my dreams but i still wake up after every episode and smile because it is what it is....just a dream

Its okay if u dont want her to make the trip for safety reasons, however, i think it is preposterous to deprive the lady if she really wants to go, on account of a dream u had.

Bad dreams, especially death related dreams, are hard to ignore. But from what you've posted, your dream is pretty going to sound boring and impossible to anyone that tries to interprete it literally.

If you’re going to talk about this dream to your friend, just advise her to listen to her mom and mom's pastor because she would end up blaming herself should anything happen.

Please ignore the details of the dream since you and, by extension, your friend are not very spiritual, lol.

Thanks for your input

There's a lot of unrest in Hong Kong presently and it's in the city centers and even extends to the airport.
Going on a trip to that country now doesn't make sense. .too volatile.
You don't need to tell her about the dream but just tell her your mind is telling her not to go.

You watch too much war movies.
Not good

Dreams come through, its one way God use to communicate with us.
God have used you and the pastor to know what is to happen so my opinion is to pray about it and ask God to play His role; i.e IF IT IS GOD'S WILL LET THE JOURNEY COME TO PASS BUT IF OTHERWISE, LET SOMETHING NATURAL STOP HER FROM GOING.

What do you think of your dreams, do they come true or not from past observations?

If they do, it's essential you do, but even they don't I would advise you just tell your friend what happened in your dream for the sake of it, because if anything happens to her if you decide to keep it to yourself, and it tallies with what took place in your dream, you would not easily forgive yourself.

Let it be up to her to decide since you're not the first to have such a dream about that trip, so whatever decision she arrives at the end, she'd be solely responsible for it and no one else.

Usually when such dreams occur, the most advisable thing to do is to pray for her and against what happened in the dream, just in case there was any purpose attached to it, but since you say you're not spiritual, maybe you should find someone spiritually inclined to help you out, for that used to happen in the Bible days.

God bless

P.S. The dreams has the trappings of a plane crash.

Let her go, just say a prayer for her.

Sister, don’t allow anyone project their fears into you o. China(Hong Kong) is a great country and a place to be. Like someone pointed out earlier, the protests are confined to city centers, don’t deprive yourself of a lifetime opportunity because of something as superficial as dreams.

There’s nothing to fear unless you are going there to join the protests. With all the BH and bandit wahala, people no still dey Naija dey ball?

Encourage her to travel, but make sure you tell her about your dream so she can be more careful. If she would come back fine, she will.

Make research about the cities where the protest is happening and re-route her flight to safer places. I believe they should have more than one international Airport.

Let him be there ready on standby to pick her up. He has to guarantee of safety some sort since he invited.

The fact that her parents have warned her should be enough.

There is a Swahili saying:

"If you don't learn from your mother you will learn from the world"

It seems she is about to learn some lessons from the world.

Just tell her. I think nothing will happen. It's just fear manifesting in your dreams. But should in case it does, you'll never be able to forgive yourself.

I dreamt this afternoon that my car was stolen.

Nobody should try me oooooo.

You later told her?

No I didn't, I just prayed over it

How did you even pray when you are not really spiritual

Ok, maybe I should've said my level of spirituality is very basic, plus I don't think you need to be a 'high ranking' spiritual warrior to pray

ibkayee:

Alright. better

OK then

You are skeptical of the pastor because of the timing of the dream (after she’d told him)
But you're not sceptical of yourself because it is you

Keep your dream to yourself

The only reason to abort is a genuine evidence of unrest
