The ring, the photos, and the criminal
I had a dream that I was on my way to a feild trip with this funky-dink camera and a little ring that could hold lots of photos and file through them. I sat next to a guy on my bus who offered to turn my pictures into a small video to put on the ring and I let him. Later I found out he was a criminal and while I took the ring and was very impressed I did not want to see him again. Later, on my way to a Christmas play for charity with my family, I really got to flipping through the ring and felt like I had made a mistake leaving him. Did I want to give him another chance? I showed my mom and Grammy but a bird snatched it from my fingers and I sprinted after it. It dropped the ring in a high nest. I reminded myself it was just a dream and I would not be scared. I climbed the tree and slid down to the nest and got my ring back, hopping out before the bird could get me. Then I sat with my family and showed them the ring and how I could put more pictures on it. Someone came around during the production and was holding out baskets of jewelry all tangled together. Everyone picked one out quickly and then she asked for money. I didn’t realize it was a donation thing and I told her I couldn’t just pick something out I had to be careful with my decision. She seemed annoyed but let me go through what all remained.
