Do you or have you had a recurring nightmare?

I had this same nightmare on and off for at least 5 years, from age 15 to 20.
I was running away from something, running for my life, across flat ground out in the countryside. There was a tremendous roaring noise and just as the noise became almost unbearable, I looked around and there was a plane about to hit me. I tripped and the plane went off into the sky.
Rather mild, I suppose, but still I experienced real fright, enough to always wake me up, shouting.

I keep having a reoccurring one especially these days about being in a war (a civil one) where Melbourne was a battle field, people fighting against black soldiers. Like the ones who attacked us at the shrine (but using real rounds instead of rubbers)

Basically I was in the middle of sn open area escaping an ambush, I was hot in the left shoulder with a sniper round, next one through my head.

At the end of that same dream I wake up feeling like a plane taking off inside my head.

@BalladOfADeadSoulja You died in the dream? You woke up as the bullet hit your head?
Or was there an afterthought?

@Gusman woke up as the bullet hit me in the head, I looked up survivors of gunshot wounds to the head, and before going unconscious they felt like a plane had taken off inside their head.

@BalladOfADeadSoulja Amazing about the airplane factor.
Let's hope the dream is not portentous, hey.

@Gusman I’ve always predicted since I was a Child that my life would end that way. At least if it happens now it’s not gang related lol.

@BalladOfADeadSoulja Great that there are no gangs involved in your life now?
Life sometimes can overwhelm us but we seem to keep going.

@Gusman was one of the lucky ones that got out of that life, there are only two ways out for most in that life.
