I dreamt that I was about to take a taxi with someone who felt like a friend, though I didn’t actually know who he was.
This friend was holding a box that seemed to be filled with valuable items. When we got into the taxi, my friend started telling the driver about the valuables inside the box. I didn’t understand why he would say such a thing, and I got the sense that the driver might have had bad intentions. Since I was getting out of the taxi first, I was worried about my friend’s safety. Before I got out, I made sure to let the driver know I had taken note of his details, warning him that if anything happened to my friend, I would know it was his doing.
The scene then shifted, and I was in another car with my good friend Grace and another friend, Brian. The car was being driven by yet another friend, Bao. The steering wheel of the car looked like a video game controller.
At some point, Bao got out, and Brian took over driving, deliberately showing off to be cool. The car itself seemed expensive, but Brian could afford it. We were driving down Hengyang Road in Taipei and stopped at a red light at an intersection. Brian wanted to turn left and drop me off there.
In the dream, it seemed I owned a restaurant, but running it was exhausting and very difficult. Despite that, I was planning to expand to the southern region of Taiwan. In the car, both Grace and Brian expressed their doubts about this plan, pointing out how tired I already was from dealing with staffing issues.
Deep down, I understood their concerns and knew they had a point. However, I felt stuck, like there was no turning back—the restaurant was already open, and the southern expansion was underway. When I opened a map, I noticed that there was also a place called "Neihu" in the south, marked in a special way.
In the dream, I seemed to have a business partner—an idealistic young man. He had originally opened a shop in Taipei’s Neihu District to promote Taiwanese tourism. Later, we partnered up to open a branch in the south. Interestingly, the city where the branch was located had even renamed itself "Neihu" for this purpose. It seemed he also understood how challenging it was to manage people.
In the dream, I felt quite sympathetic toward him, but it also felt like I was sympathizing with myself.
夢見我跟一個人要坐計程車，感覺那人是我朋友，可是我不知道他是誰。
這朋友拿著一個箱子，好像裡面都是值錢的東西。我們叫了車，上車後，我朋友就跟司機講他這一箱裡面都是值錢貨。
我不知他為什麼要在車上講這些事情，我感覺司機似乎起了一點歹念。因為我會先下車，我又擔心朋友的安危，下車前我就故意讓司機知道我記下他的資料。如果我朋友出了什麼事，我就知道是你。
然後場景變成我和好友 Grace 在另一位朋友 Brian 的車上，開車的另一位朋友 Bao。
這車子有著像電玩搖控器的方向盤。車子開一開，Bao 下車，換 Brian 開，他就故意在耍酷。這車子好像很貴，反正 Brian 也買得起。
車子開在台北衡陽路上，來到一個叉路，紅燈停下來，Brian 想要左轉，然後讓我下車。
夢裡我好像有開一家餐廳，但做得很累，很難經營，但仍想在南部擴點。在車上，Grace 和 Brian 都表示他們並不看好，因為他們知道我在處理人事上很累。
其實我心裡明白他們講的重點，但覺得有點騎虎難下，因為餐廳已經開了，南部也要擴點。我打開地圖，發現怎麼南部也有個地方叫內湖，而且還這樣子特別標示出來。
在夢裡我好像有個合作伙伴，也是一個具理想性的男生。他好像本來是在台北內湖這裡有開一間店，想要推展台灣觀光。後來我們合作，一起要到南部開分店。為此南部那邊還特別把店面所在城市改名叫做 "內湖"。好像他也知道人的事情會很辛苦。
在夢裡我蠻同情他的，可是我覺得好像也是同情我自己。
這個夢想似乎充滿了信任、責任、野心和自我意識的主題。以下是對其元素的可能解釋：
1. 搭乘計程車
帶著貴重物品的朋友：這可能代表你覺得有責任保護的某人或某物，即使你可能不完全了解情況或所涉及的人。它可能象徵著你在不明確的情況下，所承擔的負擔或責任。
司機潛在的惡意：這可能反映出你對可能威脅你的計劃或您關心的人的外部力量或環境的潛在不信任。
離開前採取預防措施：你記錄司機詳細資料的行為，表明你嘗試保持控制並確保安全，即使在感覺無法控制的情況下也是如此。
2. 第二班車
朋友 Grace 和 Brian：這些朋友可能象徵著你清醒生活中理性或懷疑的聲音，敦促你重新考慮你的抱負，或強調你面臨的挑戰。
電玩搖控器方向盤：這個古怪的細節可能反映出你正在以一種非傳統的、可能有趣的方式，駕馭你的生活或做出決定，但並非沒有風險。這可能表示你感覺控制力很脆弱，或者情況感覺超現實。
Brian 炫耀：他的行為可能暗示外部干擾或你生活中的人，可能會無意中轉移你的注意力，或讓事情看起來比實際情況更容易。
3. 餐廳及擴建計劃
令人筋疲力盡的餐廳：這可能反映了你現實生活中在工作或專案上的掙扎，尤其是你在感到不知所措的情況下，仍渴望擴張的動力。它可能象徵著你的野心與你目前的能力發生衝突。
朋友懷疑你的計劃：夢的這一部分可能會揭示你內心的懷疑，因為他們似乎表達了你已經理解，但不願面對的擔憂。
南部城市更名為「內湖」：象徵你再創輝煌的決心。它也可能暗示你對連續性或熟悉感的渴望，即使你在新的領域冒險。
4. 商業合作夥伴
理想主義的夥伴：這個人可能代表你自己的一部分——你的樂觀、創造力或對未來的願景。他在人員管理方面的掙扎，反映了你在平衡理想與現實方面面臨的挑戰。
你對他（和你自己）的同情：這顯示你對自己的掙扎越來越有自我意識和同情心。就好像這個夢境鼓勵你承認自己工作有多努力，並在應對挑戰時善待自己。
整體解讀
這個夢境似乎反映了你當前生活的緊張局勢：
野心與限制：你有遠大的夢想和計劃，但感受到所涉及的責任和障礙的沉重。
控制與信任：你很難維持對情況的控制以及信任他人或外部環境。
自我意識：這個夢境請你考慮你的野心的代價，以及調整是否可以為你的生活帶來更多平衡。
同情心：你對夥伴（和你自己）的同情，暗示需要承認你的努力並以理解和關懷對待自己。
這可能有助於反思你真正想要什麼，以及你願意做出哪些犧牲。傾聽謹慎的聲音（例如 Grace 和 Brian）並不意味著放棄——它可以幫助你做出更永續的選擇。
