Its daytime and I appear to have bought a new (dream) home in a quiet suburban street its quite a large property in the Regency style mainly all white with a few very light blue embellishments here and there, the good news is that it doesn’t need renovating and is all ready to be lived in (at last after all of those past dream renovations!!).I’m out in the street moving my items in and having a look over the property to see what it is I have bought. Just then a large old car slowly drives by in the street it’s an old Mercedes that would have been very exclusive and classy back in its day but now it looks very dated.
I sense that the car drives by very slowly as it passes my new house so that the occupants can see the property and who is moving in, it becomes quickly apparent to me that the people in the car are the past owners of the house and who are curious to see it one last time and who the new owner is.
As the car slowly heads off up the street some adolescents turn and smile and wave at me through the rear window of the car, I wave and smile back at them too in order to be polite. The family seems quite friendly and genial although the way the adolescent’s wave and smile gives me the impression of them being a little childish for their age.
The family strikes me as being a little kooky even creepy although I know they only mean well, the car disappears off up the street leaving me to continue exploring my new home.
(Having this property in the dream to myself is a very wonderful feeling just as if it were a place I could make all of my own).
I wander around the property looking for the garden to what it is like and it soon becomes apparent that the garden isn’t directly attached to the house but is situated across the street on the other side of the road.
I take the few steps over the road from my house and walk through an open wrought iron gate with railings into a wonderful little garden or park. I see old style Greek stone seats and wonderful ornamental fountains, the garden slopes down into what looks like an orchard which seems to be very expansive from what I can make of it from where I am stood.
It’s extremely peaceful and idyllic but I then realize that there are other people here in my garden sat about relaxing quietly, these people are mainly women with small children and old men. A sudden feeling of extreme selfishness comes over me and I want the garden all to myself and for these other people to go.
It is then impressed upon me that my garden is communal and these people are allowed to be here, the gate is always open for people to come and go as they please. I have a change of heart and feel guilty for being so self-centered, after all the people who are here at the moment aren’t bothering me and are all very peaceful people.
