Recently I had a dream of being me but about 20 years older. She was not in the past or the future but is living right now. It was so startling that it took several days to shake off the feeling that what happened in the dream did not happen to "me." The life that "she" lived was just too real and not one I don't think I've ever imagined. It seems though that we went to the same university, just years apart.
