Walking through Walls

Last night I dreamed that I died.  It wasn't violent, scary, or even full of anxiety.  I was calm as my car went off the side of the road and into the water.  I was thinking how I couldn't reverse this, or fix it, it would be really bad for the car, and my cell phone was about to be useless.  If I wanted to contact anyone I needed to do it quickly, then I thought, maybe it would be damaging to me too.  I was then wandering around the large building full of people, either a mall or a hospital, not sure which, and also not sure how my mind could think of the two as interchangeable, but nonetheless, there it is.  I was dead, but didn't realize it. I was confused.  I could see other dead people, and the living.  Some would talk to me and others didn't even see me.  I was so confused.  I wasn't sure where I belonged, or what to do next.  I wandered, in and out of doors, through windows and walls, asking lots of questions and getting no answers.  When I awoke I thought it might make a cool story, but now with a fully awake brain, probably not.

Dreams are usually not literal, unless you are dreaming that you need to pee .... You should take that one seriously and get up!!  Dreams are usually symbolic.  So, what might this mean?  Does it mean that a phase of my life has come to an end?  A calm, peaceful, and irreversible end?  It's nothing tragic, its just time to move on.  Am I now wandering around confused looking for answers from sources who have none?  Do I have the ability to move through the next door, window, or even wall, without hindrance?  I don't need to wait for someone to open the door, I can just walk right on through?   What is the symbolism of the hospital/mall?  Maybe that one is just a bit of undigested beef :) (Hey, it is Christmas, and Dickens is awesome!)
