Dreams

Just to really meander around, do you ever think your dreams haev any bearing on your life? I don't think I really do, but I've had three types of weird expieriences...

1. The dream that happened. only happened a couple of times, but sort of creepy

2. The dream i thought was something taht had happened and later found out was just a dream. Also kind of odd, as I am remembering things that havn't actually happened.

3. Reacurring dreams or nightmares about something specific. The dreams are usually about things i want to tell people but havn't, or they point out something i havn't noticed about my feeling stworads a person. They don't repeat taht often. The nightmares were for a few months last fall, and they were basically about a certian period of my life, just over and over and over again.

I dunno, i just wonder if anyone else has ever had anything real weird liek taht? or are dreams really just teh randomness of our brains?

I've had all 3 types of those dreams. The ones that freak me the most though are some of the lucid dreams I've been having. Talking to people I know and in conversation, they turn round and say 'But you know your dreaming' and weird stuff like that. They sort of combined with the reccuring dreams recently.... But also I believe dreams may not be prophetic or glimpses of the future, but being a product of the subconscious mind may hold the key to how you really tick, or the way you really feel about things. a while back I was suffering from a horrific case of insomnia, and started to suffer from sleep deprivation hallucinations. waking dreams. they really weren't fun. but yeah, put me down for having something real weird like that.

Ye I get insomnia a lot
but I once had this crazy dream where a lot of people ran to hid from a storm under a gazebo in the park behind my house even though there is no gazebo in the park and then someone came and said it's going to rain harder than its ever rained before and that freaked me out and then i ended up in my best friends girlfriends house and she was lying naked on a bed and tried to seduce me (its ok i told him about the dream he wasnt mad,,,,he laughed actually) and then I ran outside to find hiom and noone wss outside it was like a ghost town and I ran back inside to look for him and i looked in the mirror and just saw a skeleton as the reflection...I woke up in a cold sweat with a line from a live song in my head "The world was a dream we were sleeping, butnow we are awake"
That was the craziest dream ever
I think Im all by myself on this weirdness thing...

Do You ever Question Your life? Do You ever wonder Why? Do you ever see in Your dreams, All the castles in the Sky??

'I think Im all by myself on this weirdness thing...'

I've had dreams like that one, just that mine are something I'd rather not talk about
Dune is a good film if your into dreams, and several tracks by astral projection good to listen too if your into dreams and dune

have you guys seen the movie Waking Life? its about this guy in his dream and he has all these trippy conversations with different people. the way they filmed it was cool too, they used regular cameras then they animated over the film. really cool, people will be talking and the background will be kind of wavy flowing behind them.

My weirdest dream was kind of in the "recurring" category for almost two months. What was so weird about it was that it was sequential. It started off fairly ordinary (for a dream, anyway): something about my classes and this girl I liked that was in one of them. Then over the next month and a half or so I would have a new dream every couple of days that kept going from where the one before it left off. They kept getting stranger, too, as the "plot" of my punctauted nocturnal story got more complicated. By the end I was getting into some disturbing imagery; After grappling with some unhealthy emotions and habits I looked into a mirror and saw the face of this kid who I hated for exemplifying them; For a while I was lost in this end of the world routine that just kept geting more and more out of control, et cetera...

I'd have to disagree with that, though. Dreams are a vent for emotions we don't really know we have. In extreme duress, or when we aren't comfortable in our world or with our perception about ourselves, when we're concerned for others or in periods of not understanding, it comes across in our dreams through images that have some degree of universiality but private, interperaive meaning for us. We like to delude ourselves about a wide range of personal issues, as well, so the only way to own up to a fear, vice, or other demon from your past or present may be to express it in your dreams. So, "Do you ever think dreams have any bearing on your life?" I would have to say, in an artistic blend of crypic and ambiguous speech, that Dreams will tell you more about you than you could.

heh, if our dreams tell us a lot about ourselvews i'm in trouble nightrunner...
can't say i don't agree with you tho, i haev these weird dreams where i only then realize how i feel about people afterwards. i think a good example lately was a dream i had about a boy i knew and in teh dream he died and i was really sad about not getting to talk to him about something before he died... weird dream, but the emotion stayed with me.

Everytime I get sick, I mean seriously, laid up for a few days sick, I have the same three dreams all in a row. I have had them since I was really little too. I caught onto this a few years ago and it is a good warning for me, though I usually have no idea what I am going to be sick with!

My family and I often share the same dream and it is a prelude to something. I had a dream the other night that my mom died, to the point where I woke up crying it was so real. My dad, come to find out, had a similar dream that same night. Mom is being very cautious now. This is very common in my family, and the oddest thing is...I am adopted to them! A couple years ago my mom and I both dreamt the same night that the children in the family were being taken from us. Later than month and illness spread through the kids in the family that spiked dangerously high fevers and such.

Also there is this house that has appeared in many of my dreams for over 20 years now. I know it is real. I know I have never been there. I also know that if I ever see it, I could walk around in it blindfolded because I know it so well. However, I will never go near it, as it is always the center of my nightmares!

It also seems I have this funky connection with friends through their dreams. One of my friends never sees faces in his dreams, other than me, and I guess I am there in some profound capacity I am not entirely comfortable with. Another friend always knows when I am upset because he dreams about me in a violent nature and this one is funny, I pick on a friend of PWB and mine by saying he looks like a gnome, the stereotypical lawn gnome style. Come to find out he has had a gnome in a reoccurring dream he has had since he was a child!
Strange.

Anyway my dreams have a profound effect on me. For me they are a strange connection to things outside my normal everyday waking life.

Perhapse Kyrain will be dreaming of me now that she's seen my picture
Maybe I can build a fan club to rival Cantus's

I have never in my life remembered a dream. I'll wake up in a sweat sometimes or I've heard that I talk quite often but the second my eyes open it is gone. Wierd.

Love always,

I remember my dreams often. And alot of the time I will walk past a building or a place and feel that I have been there before. Then I think about it for a little longer and realise that it was in a dream that I saw this place.

It doesn't happen often, but it happens sometimes and it's pretty freaky especially since most of the time I have never been to the place I feel I have been before, in my dream.
