I had an experience in church and God was trying to impart something in me words and it was coming so fast I said to God" this is too much and over the course of a year, likely years God got what He wanted across to me . When God is determined to do something it gets done and if were not ready He waits and it still gets done.
Your dream may or may not have been of God, but if it was God then He has definite plans for you even if it takes years, God will wait till your ready or made ready.
