Nightmares and reality

Over the last couple of months I have been having some bad dreams. I normally don’t write about bad dreams on my blogs. Shoot I just would rather not but when those dreams seem to be coming true I need to process it some how. I can only speak to my husband so much. Over the last couple of weeks, I have not been sleeping well. I have been having a nightmare which is always the same, but the problem is I can’t tell where it is taking place. I hate those kind of dreams because it seems so real.
Yesterday I woke up worrying about my Aunt in California, because I had dreamed there was a Earthquake somewhere in the midwest and have had these dreams in the past. This dream felt so real. I grew up in Washington State, so I wrote the dream off as maybe one happen in California and I am for some reason dreaming more on a home front. I live in Minnesota, which the Mississippi river is running right along a fault line, I know this and for a couple of years I have had a underline worry of a earthquake hitting even though this is a inactive fault line. I have been having nightmares of earthquakes for a while but never really paid much mind to them. Before the Earthquake in New Salem Illinois my dreams started being more frequent. I shared with my husband a couple of times, and with a couple of online friends. I was actually sharing with one about it, in the beginning of the week.
I decided after I did a little blogging I would look on line, I saw a headline for the major Earthquake in CA, back in 1906. So I wrote off my dream yet again, but I still felt unsettled in my spirit. I couldn’t figure out what was causing my unsettledness. I was looking at US news and there it was in their highlighted section, it was only 45 minutes old. Now I realized it was in the Midwest about 8 hours south of me. Maybe G-d was showing me what is happening, I am not sure, but this has happened a few times before.
Last night we came home from service and the news was on, they had a geologist say something which I think was unwise of him. This may be a fault line that is currently inactive but didn’t we think the same thing about the part of the fault line in Illinois. I honestly think this fault line could be come active again, it has been active in the past.
This is what concerns me with the Midwest, we do not build for earthquake, because we do not get them, but yet we live on a inactive fault line. I just wonder why, not be on the safe side and build for building safety just in case there is a earthquake, so that there is less damage and less fatalities. I am not saying anyone was seriously injured in the last quake there, I am just saying that we should be more prepared.
It’s like the construction worker who does not bring his air tools when he knows he needs them on the job. There are things I will never figure out like why people want to live on top of Volcanoes which are inactive. Yes they are inactive but they someday will get full of Lava and decide it is time to release their pressure. This is kind of the same with fault lines, they can be unpredictable. Earthquakes aren’t like Tornadoes which can be predicted before it happens. Let me make this very clear, I do not claim to be a prophet, yes I think I might be doing something prophetic sometimes.
What do I think about my dreams, I am not exactly sure. Part of this knowledge scares me, part of it makes me want to kick my self in the head for not praying more for those affected by that earthquake. I believe that G-d may have choose to share this with me, but it took me a while to get it. Will I continue writing off my dreams probably will, I tend to be very slow when it comes to stuff like that. Now my husband will tell everyone I am just hard on myself.
