Face Your Fears

I dreamt that I was laying on the grass, in the park, alongside a friend
whom I used to trust. We were chatting, enjoying the fresh spectacle
of dancing summer greens. All of a sudden he turned to me and said:

- Something is not right, we should leave. I don’t know what it is, but
I’m starting to get very afraid.

- What are you talking about? I asked. There’s nothing to be afraid of
out here.

But my friend started shaking, getting visibly terrified. He then point-
ed at a place further down in the abundant sea of grass and said:

- Look, over there! There’s a black panther there! Let’s go, it’s going
to harm us!

But again, when I looked, there was nothing there.

As my friend kept telling me we should go, pulling desperately on my
sleeve, I suddenly began to see. My god, it was really there. A big
black spot, in the middle of the park! A pair of golden piercing eyes
opened from between the blades of grass, and a menacing sound
released in the hot air.

- Run! Run! my friend shouted.

As we ran towards the alley, I noticed looking back, there were now 3
black panthers rapidly closing in on us.
