Well, F You!

Date: 12/24/2025

I was at the back of the church walking through the the maze of back doors and boxes. I somehow managed to get to the back doors of the sanctuary, which I wasn't trying to get to. I started walking through the doors, when I realized that the sanctuary was in use for rehearsal of the Christmas performance. I went back through the doors, only to find myself at the front exit area. I was confused, trying to get back to the back of the church through the doors. But every time I went through the doors I was either at the back entrance of the sanctuary or the front entrance. I decided to just go up towards the front entrance. I was hoping no one was in the lobby because I didn't want to be seen, but there were people there. A couple of them recognized me and spoke to me. Because I was seen I decided that instead of finding another way to get back to the back of the church, that I would just exit through the front door. But someone kept talking to me. I stood next to a table by the door and played with a jar of some kind of hair product while this person unloaded a whole bunch of stuff on me. She was talking about how parents needed to put their own needs aside for people my age(30s) and let them be themselves. She then said something about pregnancy. Mrs. Troy (Pastor Troy's wife) walked in while she was saying this. As she came into the room, I stopped fiddling with the jar of hair product and she grabbed it. Mrs. Troy then asked me if I wanted kids. I said someday. Then she said, "You've had that belly for 23 years." of course, meaning my belly with extra fat on it. I cut my eyes at her and flicked her off. She came after me. I then ran back to the sanctuary to the back before she could get to me. I found my way through the maze back to the civilization that was deep in the back of the church and told the lady at the entrance that if a short lady came looking for me, then act like she doesn't know me. I found my way back to my family.

AI generated interpretation Your dream presents a rich tapestry of symbolic imagery centered around navigation, visibility, personal boundaries, and social expectations. The church setting often symbolizes a place of community, tradition, or personal values, and your movement through its maze-like back doors and entrances suggests a journey through complex or layered aspects of your inner life or social roles. The repeated passage through doors that lead you either to the sanctuary’s front or back hints at a sense of being caught between different states or identities—perhaps feeling torn between private, authentic self-expression (the back, more hidden areas) and public roles or expectations (the front entrance and lobby). The Christmas rehearsal in progress may symbolize ongoing performances or societal rituals you find yourself part of, even if unintentionally. Being recognized and engaged by others at the front, when you hoped to remain unseen, introduces themes of exposure, vulnerability, and the pressure of social interactions. The presence of the woman talking about parental sacrifice and your potential for pregnancy reflects underlying cultural or interpersonal messages about responsibility, future planning, or self-image. The interaction with Mrs. Troy and her focus on your belly invokes a direct confrontation with body image and personal boundaries, as seen in your reactive gesture and escape attempt. Running back to the sanctuary and finding refuge deep in the back suggests a desire to reclaim safety, autonomy, or connection with trusted parts of yourself or your community. Asking the lady at the entrance to deny knowledge of you if approached further indicates a wish to protect your privacy and control over who knows your whereabouts or inner experiences. Emotionally, the dream captures feelings of confusion, intrusion, frustration, and the need for self-preservation amidst social pressures and personal expectations. It invites reflection on how you navigate the balance between public and private spheres, the roles you feel compelled to play, and the boundaries you wish to maintain for your well-being. Overall, this dream portrays a journey through complex social landscapes and internal reflections, emphasizing themes of identity, visibility, boundary setting, and the quest for safe spaces within communal or traditional environments.
