Thoughts.com Blogs - Naked in Public

This is the second morning this week that I have woken up from a dream where I am walking around naked. Usually a nightmare right? But to my surprise I am totally comfortable walking around naked, blubber and all. The first dream I ended up having a friend go grab some pants for me because after walking around naked in front of new classmates I felt ashamed, though I was shamless during the act. Then last night I had a dream that I was at a doctors office, and was walking around the waiting room naked. I felt fine, I was smiling, my mom thought I was crazy (I probably was). Then someone else (a mother of a girl) got really mad, was saying how I was undecent for her daughter and everyone else to see. I go into a dressing room and put on a gown and robe (which I believe went into my dreams due to seeing them all day while getting patients dressed for exams). I overheard my mother screaming at the women defending me but in a way I did not like, where she made the women leave the office in outrage. I quickly covered myself up and ran out. My mom wanting to have a cigarette, I told her to wait inside in case my name got called to go in for my appointment. I went outside, and was screaming for the lady. She was already in her car and in the backseat, with her daughter. The car began to backout and I continued screaming for them to wait. The car stopped and the woman came out, not too happy but still. I talked with the lady. I remember I said, "I am comfortable with my body and don't care, do you know how long that took?" After talking the woman thought I was okay and ended up giving me a hug.

I searched online this morning for dream interpretation. Being naked and not caring, is really a sign of being comfortable with one's self. I feel like this latest dream was showing me how I try to cover up who I am because of other people, but really it's okay to express who I am and to let out my secrets. My new years resolution this year was to be a better person, and lately I have been more talkative, more outgoing, more confident. I feel like a totally different person, and this dream is letting me know that it's okay to be myself during the whole thing, this change is okay.
