(This is the
man with one leg shoe dream man story, titled by
Jessicapierce)
One
sculptor I met had a
terrible accident in an
automobile with his
son. They both went into
coma and slept there for a long time. During the man's coma he had wonderful
dreams, more
vivid than normal dreams. He travelled all over the place, and he kept seeing a strange
symbol:
piles of
shoes. He first saw the pile of shoes in a
market in
India. He went up to the pile of shoes, because somehow he knew it was
important, and he realized they were only
right-foot shoes. He kept seeing piles of shoes, and shoes all over the place, and they were always right ones. Never a left foot. This went on for a long times as he travelled in dreams around the world. Then he went into a dark
tunnel with a light at the end, walked slowly to the
light, until he turned left into a little
staircase and woke up. His son woke up too and had similar dreams, but without the shoe issue.
Then he found out that during his sleep a
surgeon had cut off his left
leg.
I glanced down at the artificial leg under the table; I had arrived late and hadn't see him walk.
The story is true but I can't remember the guy's name nor if it was the left leg or the right one; if he reads this, um, hello
