Hi Rick15 I am new to this community but I have been interpreting dreams for about five years. Since I was little I had lucid dreams and felt like something was trying to contact me through my dreams. I read your dream. I believe angles come to us in our dream state because that is when we humans let our guard down and can listen and hear them. I think the question why don't you speak Rick is a message sent to you from your grandmother. It seems that if you would talk she would listen and quite possibly answer. However, you have to be open to listening.
