Drowned by life🌊🌊🌊

Date: 9/8/2019

I keep having this reoccurring dream. But this time it’s a little different. There’s an island within view of the beach but no one has ever swam there. Every one has talked of swimming there and even some have claimed to have made it but no one actually believes it. One day, a man decides he will swim out and touch the island’s sand. There are many people on the beach talking amongst themselves ignorant of the swimming man. As he goes he makes it farther than anyone has ever gone but he can’t go any farther and he starts to drown. People on the beach know that he swam out there but don’t seem to notice that he’s drowning. He struggles for air and yells for help but the waves are too much for him. Most of the people don’t notice that he’s sinking and the others ignore him. I see him out there barely gasping for air and I run to the others telling them that he is drowning and will die. They hear me call to them but turn their backs to me. I decide that if no one else will help him I will. So I dive in and start swimming toward him. As I get close I see the waves take him under. I dive to find him but he’s gone. I try again but I can’t find him no matter how hard I try. I search until I can’t continue and swim back to the beach. I run to the people and asked if they had seen the man drown. They ignore me still and continue talking amongst themselves. I yell at them “what is wrong with you?! I know you saw this man drowning and have done nothing!” They continue to ignore me like they never heard a word I said. After many attempts of pleading with them I finally sit on the beach staring at the waves. I come to the realization that there was nothing I could have done. He was doomed to drown and they knew it. They let him sink because he chose to swim. Even though he was within reach, it was not their concern. He died and was never seen again.

AI generated interpretation The ocean in dreams is often symbolic of the subconscious mind, with its depths representing hidden emotions and thoughts. The island that is barely visible may represent your goals, aspirations, or desires - something that you have not yet achieved but is within reach. The man who swims out to the island represents the part of you that is willing to take risks and venture into the unknown to achieve your goals. But as he starts to drown, this may symbolize your fear of failure or inability to reach the goal. The people on the beach who ignore the man represent the lack of support or recognition from others in your life for your endeavors. You may feel that you are alone in your pursuit of your goals and that no one is willing to help or acknowledge your efforts. As you dive in to save the man and ultimately fail, it may represent your fear of not being able to succeed in achieving your aspirations. You may feel that the obstacles are too great to overcome or that you do not have the necessary tools or skills to achieve success. The fact that the people on the beach continue to ignore you even after the man's death signifies a sense of isolation and loneliness in your waking life. You may feel that no one is truly listening to you or taking your needs and desires seriously. Overall, this dream may symbolize your fear of failure and a lack of support from those around you. It may also represent your desire to achieve your goals and a fear of venturing into unknown territories. It may be helpful for you to explore these feelings further in your waking life and seek out support from those around you.
