Freeze....
Don't move...
Imagine for a moment that you're in the middle of a bad dream and you learn that you are a criminal who is robbing a convenient store. Right around the moment that you realize it's you who is breaking the law you realize that you are surrounded by police officers who are holding you at gun point. The only word that you hear is... FREEZE!!
You can't imagine moving a muscle because you realize you're in trouble but you can't remember why you would've been robbing a convenient store in the first place.
You wake from your dream to find that you're stuck in the middle of your own life because some of the tag you're wearing are labeled with the roles you play in your life and these tags, can't be simply removed. You realize that the dream was a representation of your current life circumstance and the fact that everyone who you love, including yourself, is being faced with a major struggle.
... all at the same time!
You're feeling spread too thin and you're scrambling to satisfy the needs of everyone who you are important to.
You're having trouble reaching yourself because you're completely frozen, thoughtfully trying to figure out how to move again.
