When I was a teenager my family and I was coming back from the movies. I had fallen asleep in the back seat of our car. Which is very rare because I just don't usually sleep in a vehicle at all.1
Anyway, I woke up screaming. Scared to death. 2
I explained to my mom that I had seen myself and my then stepdad getting into a car accident. That my stepdad was driving and I was sitting on the drivers side in the back seat of the car. I did not see anyone else in the car but I thought that there might have been.3
What I had seen was my stepdad running a stop sign and hitting a car dead on.4
My fear of this dream continued on for a while. Got so bad that I had a fear of being in a car at all. I panicked every time I got near a car.5
Well after a while my mom got tired of me walking every where or refusing to go anywhere with the family and started actually making me take a car places.6
So one day here we are driving along... I'm very nervous. head bobbing this way and that way.7
I just happen to notice this car coming at us at a high speed... James, my stepdad does not see it. I yell. He slams on his breaks... he would have ran a stop sign if he hadn't. The other car and he would have hit just like in my dream. Head on. I am sure there would have been no survivors at all. My whole family was in that car with me.8
I no longer have a fear of being in a car now. I'm at peace. The dream almost came true but I changed it. We survived.
