Possible Mall World Dream?
I’ve been dreaming about this lake or large pond with a straight wooden bridge on the water (no guardrails) that leads to this “secret” forest trail since I was a child. I don’t remember what’s beyond the trail in the forest, but I remember it bringing me joy. Sometimes I’d go with friends, sometimes I’d meet new friends in the forest, and sometimes I’d just go by myself. When I’d go there were occasionally crocodiles in the water that I had to avoid or I’d have to watch my step when the water in the lake got higher because the bridge would get slick. This last time something felt off. The bridge seemed like it was old and breaking and I didn’t go far into the trail before turning back. It was like it was closed off. I just randomly remembered having the dream a little bit ago. The place doesn’t feel like a dream though it feels like some place I’ve visited many times and in my dream I remembered it fondly. Has anyone else had this sort of dream before?
Pictures to help describe the bridge better.
