last night i had a dream that i was talking with my mom. i was on the way out the door at her house, and my wife was waiting in the car. my mom started talking about the fact that she is retiring this year. she was having second thoughts. she was glad that she would have to deal with annoying things about work, stupid people, stupid situations, but she also would miss the people she worked with, and was secretly looking forward to things scheduled to start next year after she's gone. she said "what am i going to do all day?". i tried to reassure her that it was the right thing to do, that she could start by taking a well-deserved rest! and i insisted she would find all sorts of things to do, and that she'd be enjoying herself in no time. that's all. the funny thing is, in real life my mom is retiring, but she seems to have absolutely no reservations, and she's really excited and looking forward to it. am i projecting apprehension and doubts onto my mom in this dream? why?
