   In MOST occasions (that I'm aware of) people simply remember a dream "from   
   where it picked up" rather than *anything* that may have preceded it.   
      
   Well, in this particular dream (last dream before waking, and I've already   
   forgotten the *other* dreams that have "evaporated" from earlier last night)   
   the dreamer was *asleep* sitting in a type of free-spirit-type church service   
   (more like folding    
   chairs than pews) and a song / hymn was *just* finishing (sorry, can't   
   remember the tune OR the words) when someone (perhaps the omniscient mind of   
   the dream narrator?) awoke the the dreamer, likely from the dreamer's right,   
   possibly a tad behind (as if    
   perhaps from behind the row of chairs) at which point, following the end of   
   the hymn, the speaker (in some venues, "pastor") who was sitting in the front   
   row, had someone rouse *him* from sleep as well, which I thought interesting,   
   but somehow understood    
   (perhaps from the narrator? only this thought seemed more feminine, as if Gina   
   perhaps had been informing "me," the dreamer) that it is "normal" for   
   individuals to simply [wake up when needed] (which left the alternative   
   thought, that they also fall    
   asleep when NOT needed.)   
      
   The speaker was a younger version of Chris O'Donnell [CO'D] (imd   
   .com/name/nm0000563) who, although around 51 (nearly 52) years old IRL, seems   
   more like in his 30s or 40s on NCIS LA, likely due to his very short (buzz)   
   haircut.  However, in the dream,    
   the speaker (/pastor) *felt* to be in his 20s or 30s, much closer to the   
   "Robin" character in CO'D's earlier film career.  Regardless, he wasn't really   
   even the focus of the dream:   
   There was a bit of praise coming from the congregation, mostly from this one   
   black female *similar* to (yet *slightly* rougher in appearance than Octavia   
   Spencer (imdb.com/name/nm0818055) in maybe her early 20's or 30's as well.    
   One comment was made of    
   her in observation, which I seem to remember as being something *related* to   
   [she's always full of the Spirit.]   
      
   Yet even *SHE* was not the "focus" of the dream!   
      
   There were 3 critters that somehow made contact with the dreamer's mouth—   
   and while the first one seems "lost to evaporation" at the moment, it was the   
   3rd one that got the "most focus" / attention in the dream:  It was like a   
   baby bird, fluttering    
   incessantly at the dreamer's mouth, which remained closed, in order to prevent   
   the bird entering the dreamer's mouth.  (Something about all those feathers   
   was simply unappetizing, to say the least!)   
      
   The dreamer *tried* to place a finger between the mouth and the bird in an   
   attempt to get the bird to perch on the finger, but that was seeming to have   
   no effect.  The dreamer *also* tried to get a bystander to remove the bird,   
   but as the dreamer couldn'   
   t actually *speak* without opening (his) mouth, the bystander was of no use,   
   other than to help the dreamer come to the conclusion that the only way to   
   safely redirect the "baby bird" was to use both hands and create a safe "cage"   
   (I have large enough    
   hands, IRL to remove the bird away from the dreamer's mouth, *without* harming   
   the wings.)   
      
   The dreamer then took the baby bird to one of the congregants— this guy   
   *definitely* appeared to be "Young Sheldon's Dad" Lance Barber (   
   mdb.com/name/nm1115741) with the full "weight" of Barber's character in the   
   "Young Sheldon" TV series.   
      
   He said something *very* much along the lines of "Get that thing away from   
   me!  When you brought that snake by earlier, [some sort of reaction,   
   *possibly* a *colloquial* type of threat.]"   
      
   The dreamer said something like: "This is just a baby bird," and placed the   
   bird on the floor, whereupon it appeared as a toy model of a Ford Mustang,   
   similar in body/style to the "fastback" model or the Mustang II.  It was robin   
   egg blue in color with a    
   wide yellow stripe down the center, *very similar* to the Ukrainian flag   
   (seeing as how Putin is having a panic war against it for some reason these   
   days.)   
      
   [I just thought I'd mention, the Ukranian President, Volodymyr Zelenskyy,   
   appears to be "the little horn" mentioned in the Book of Daniel 7:8,   
   biblehub.com/daniel/7-8.htm]   
      
   At any rate, the dreamer had a recollection of there having been two other   
   critters with this same problem, being *up against* the dreamer's lips, one of   
   which had been a baby rabbit, and the first critter has been forgotten, but   
   according to that Lance    
   character, had *possibly* been a snake, but there's simply no memory of   
   whatever that first critter may have been.  End of dream, clarity 8 (although   
   there was likely quite a bit of "7" in it!)   
      
   Just a mention as to that slab of concrete dream from yesterday:  I *suspect*   
   it has to deal with the concept of Christ being suspended from the four points   
   by wooden poles, *similar* to the Cross, as a form of "solid base" upon which   
   to stand OVER the    
   pit of hell without falling into it.  For all I know, that slab of concrete   
   *could* be "keeping" *something* "contained within *the pit*" until an   
   appointed time.   
      
   In the configuration shown in the dream, as a cornerstone, it wouldn't serve   
   TOO much purpose for building upon (too much weight would "break" the poles   
   upon which it was formed / suspended.)   
      
   However, as a type of "blockage" of the pit, it seems to be VERY purposeful,   
   from a Spiritual / dream perspective.  I can only "suspect" there being some   
   foul serpent-type creatures of hell being contained within.  Although I   
   suspect I may have left this    
   part out, the "lighting" of that view was as of a molten reddish-orangish   
   light from within the pit, as if the heated magma of the earth was sufficient   
   to provide lighting from the heat itself.  The area *outside* of the pit, from   
   where the dreamer stood,   
    was totally dim-to-darkness by comparison.
