Dreams

So I read somewhere once that a lot of people: 1. Don't remember dreams. 2. Dream in black & white. Or 3. Don't dream at all.

I don't fit any of those categories. I dream almost every night, in color, and usually remember them. Or if I don't remember them really, I usually at least know I was dreaming about something. Dreams are really interesting to me. I think that we often can interpret major things or events in the dreams to a deeper meaning. Or sometimes, get an answer to a question on our minds through them.

Since high school, I have kept a dream diary. There aren't that many entries, only because I write them down other places, like on a piece of paper during a lecture in college or am emailing it to a friend because whatever happened is like big. But I always look up meanings, and after I write down the dream, I pick out things that particularly stood out to me, like colors or the weather or where I was and look them up both in my dream dictionary book, as well as an online dream dictionary, Dream Moods.

I remember that in September, I had been thinking a lot about a lingering question in my mind about someone that had made an appearance in my life and if my decision about the person was the right one and I had a dream and the person was with me then disappeared and everyone of my friends that were in the dream were like 'See? No good just like we said. You are better off because nothing is going to change.' It was the answer I needed to hear and deep down I knew that was the answer, I just needed the wake up call to come in a dream it seems. (oh irony...)

Lately I've been having dreams of being married and having kids. But I always have boys and they are always babies. First it was twin boys, then just the other night it was just one boy. Both times, these kids don't have names, but they are cute...though I'm not 100% the one from the other night was mine necessarily. It was blond, curly haired, with big blue eyes, all of which are not qualities I have. I think I might have been baby sitting it, I'm not 100% sure on that. I looked up what a baby boy meant and my book said "birth or emergence of a new phase of self-expression in terms of activity or achievement," so maybe these babies that keep showing up are a sign that a new phase in my life is going to begin soon, aka I'm going to get a job soon. That would be nice.

Sweet dreams, readers. And remember, "Be careful what you wear to bed at night, you never know who you'll meet in your dreams."
