I had this drawing teacher in college. A stern old Asian man with a witty sense of humor. He was nice and all but I sucked ass in his class. In my dream, he had become my mentor a few years later. He would teach classes and I would be in the back working on demonstrations. We’d have casual conversations about life and work—almost like he was my grandpa. At one point, some student found and played an audio tape from back when I was a student of my teacher criticizing my project. After he was done there was a pause before I could be heard saying “You don’t have to be such a dick”. Now the class has their full attention on my professor, waiting for his reaction. But he’s so calm and tranquil, he goes “Ah, she was so stubborn back then. Now she knows.” And I got a feeling of peace when that happened.
