Interesting dream…
I had a very odd and enlightening dream two nights ago. The only question is whether it’s a warning or a reminder. 
I was in the parking lot of the church in my hometown. It was nearly full, as if for a holy day. The sun was shining and it was warm, so it might have been Easter. I was wearing a flowered dress and white shoes, so maybe it was May Crowning.
There were pennies and a nickel on the pavement and I squatted carefully (because I was wearing a skirt) to pick it up.
When I picked up the change, I spotted some more underneath a truck. I leaned forward and picked it up. Then I stood and saw quarters glittering on the pavement a few steps away. Other people looked to see what I was doing, but they headed into church.
Long story short: I was still out in the parking lot when everyone began to sing. So I was missing Mass, but I was still out there picking up change - and I felt guilty but I couldn’t or didn’t stop. (It was not clear to me whether I was in charge or was compelled.)
I awoke somewhat disturbed.
