i was spending time with family out in the city when we encountered this young boy maybe 6-7 years old. hes young alone a d homeless in a ripped shirt and so we take him with us. we eventually go camping and at our campsite we give him his own little section in the middle because my family doesnt really want him there or trust him but j feel this need to support him and give him things he needs so in the nighg when everyone is sleeping i head over to my schizophrenic mothers house and essentially sneak/break in because my situation with her in my dream mirrors the one i have with her in real life, i dont talk go her but i think about her all the time sincr she abused me i have been wanting to make amends. after i get in i head to the bedroom to get clothes for the boy. it is important to mention he is around the same age as my little brother which is why i went to my moms house to steal or take some of his okd clothes and give it to this boy i just met. the clothing racks are full of branded clothes like nike and adidas and i make sure to take bew shoes and warm heavy jackets for him but i pretty much take whatever i can get for him because for some reason i just care so deeply about him. once i was almost done im stuffing the clothes into my bag when my mom wakes up. i didnt want her to realize i was stealing so i wouldnt trigger and episode from her so i think quickly and pretend i meant to wake her up because i wanted to see her for the first time in years and immediately go to hug her and it works. but i feel bad and i feel uncomfy on the situation so i try to get out soon. we talk for a bit but then i eventually head back to the camp site after getting her back to sleep. i wake the boy up and show him everything i got him and he is grateful but not overlly happy. i remember just feeling really sad before waking up like i wanted to do so much more for him but i cant since its out of my control.
This dream may reflect your real-life feelings of compassion and a desire to make amends with someone who has hurt you in the past, represented by your schizophrenic mother. The young boy you encounter in the dream could symbolize vulnerability, innocence, and an aspect of yourself that needs nurturing and protection.
By going to your mother's house to get clothes for the boy, you may be symbolically seeking to provide care and support to that part of yourself that has been hurt or neglected. The branded clothes like Nike and Adidas could represent a desire to provide comfort and quality resources for this vulnerable part of yourself.
The interaction with your mother in the dream may indicate a longing for reconciliation or closure in your waking life. Your subconscious mind may be urging you to address unresolved issues with her, even if it is challenging or uncomfortable.
Overall, this dream suggests a deep sense of empathy and a need to heal past wounds, both for yourself and for others. It may be helpful to reflect on these feelings and consider ways to nurture and care for yourself and those around you in your waking life.
