I dreamed I was adopted by a family of giraffes. They all lived in a giant bird's nest by the side of one of the roads in my home town. My three giraffe siblings would spend most of their time in the nest, with only their long necks and heads showing above the woven twigs.
I became sullen and unmanageable after a time, refusing to get into the nest with my giraffe siblings. Eventually, my giraffe mother had to abandon me.
I have no idea what this means. I do have three siblings (not giraffes, naturally), but the set of feelings I experienced in the dream are not at all remniscent of my upbringing.
Even in the light of day, I can't shake the image of the three giraffe necks and heads sticking out of a waist-high twig bird's nest.
