The ultimate dream of no-one

Real Story

By Janek PolakPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

Jacob had always been a skeptic when it came to dreams. He thought of them as mere figments of the imagination, a way for the mind to process the events of the day. However, one night, he had a dream that would change his entire perspective on the power of the mind.

In his dream, Jacob found himself standing in the middle of a vast desert, with nothing but sand dunes stretching out as far as the eye could see. He looked around in confusion, wondering how he had gotten there. Suddenly, a voice echoed in his head.

"Jacob, you have been chosen to embark on a journey of great importance. Follow the trail of stars in the sky, and you will find your destiny."

Jacob looked up and saw that the night sky was unlike any he had ever seen before. It was filled with thousands of sparkling stars, arranged in intricate patterns and shapes. He could feel a sense of power emanating from them, and he knew that he had to follow them.

He began to walk through the desert, following the trail of stars as they led him deeper into the wilderness. As he walked, he felt the sand shift and move beneath his feet, as if it were alive. He heard whispers in the wind, and he knew that he was not alone.

After what felt like hours of walking, Jacob finally came across an oasis in the middle of the desert. It was a beautiful, verdant oasis, filled with lush palm trees and a crystal-clear pool of water. In the center of the oasis stood a majestic lion, with fur as white as snow.

"Jacob," the lion said, "you have been chosen to be the protector of this oasis. It is your duty to guard it from all those who would do it harm."

Jacob was taken aback. He had never considered himself to be a protector of anything, let alone an entire oasis. However, he knew that he had been given a special mission, and he felt a sense of pride welling up inside him.

As the days passed, Jacob lived in the oasis, guarding it from all those who would seek to harm it. He grew to love the lion, who became his closest companion and mentor. He learned the secrets of the oasis, and he knew that he was part of something greater than himself.

One day, as Jacob was sitting by the pool, he saw a figure approaching in the distance. It was a man, dressed in black robes and wielding a sword. Jacob knew that he had to protect the oasis, and he drew his own sword.

The two men clashed in a fierce battle, with the fate of the oasis hanging in the balance. Jacob fought with all his strength, but the man in black was too powerful. Just when all seemed lost, Jacob felt a surge of energy coursing through his body. He closed his eyes and focused on the power within him.

With a burst of light, Jacob defeated the man in black and saved the oasis. He felt a sense of pride and accomplishment wash over him, and he knew that he had fulfilled his destiny.

When Jacob woke up, he was back in his bed, his heart racing. He couldn't believe what he had experienced in his dream, but he knew that it had changed him forever. From that day on, he felt a sense of purpose and meaning in his life, and he knew that he was part of something greater than himself. He had experienced the power of the mind, and he knew that anything was possible.
