Why do I keep having this dream?

In the dream I am in trouble with the police (or sometimes it's the FBI) but I haven't done anything wrong. Sometimes they are hunting for me but I slip away from them and flee. In the dream, I know I haven't broken the law but I am still scared. Sometimes I have been arrested or just taken into custody and I am terrified. The police talk tough to me like I'm a criminal and I am too scared to think straight or know what to do. I wake up feeling sure I will be arrested shortly and that I will be treated so roughly it will kill me. I have to talk myself back into sanity because, in my real life, I live quietly within the law, and I have no reason to fear the police. I don't even get parking tickets!

sounds like a movie script...have you seen a movie where someone is escaping someone else or authority?

No, can't afford movies lately, haven't been in about three years, don't have a TV. Sometimes the dialogue or words I hear the police speaking remind me of the radio program [i]Boston Blackie[/i] from the 1940s when I was a little kid.

I was talking with two women at one point and quite suddenly they were both going to visit me within the same time frame...it was just friendship on both accounts but I obviously felt troubled....I had this very erotic dream whereby I had two women in my bed....they talked incessantly to each other while we all performed amazing acts of carnal pleasure... I say this only because the power of the mind is really intense sometimes

Neither lady did visit in the end so it was all a wasted emotion ...but the dream was quite incredible
