U need not believe- Dreams come & go

Well hello Dear bloggers,

Gosh I miss you. Really I do. I've had a lot of busy time and after that I made myself rest because I felt as if I was going to experience a brain crash from overload. Any way I'm still dreaming and I will share another dream with you in a minute or two but first let me address something.

dreams are mixture of wat we do..we hav..we want..we feel..things wich we r scared...we love..we forget..
and sum weirdness + creativity.
dats wat i feel
so stay kool!
n keep posting

First let me say thank you for reading my blog and posting a comment. Your time is appreciated. Now let me say I'm not trying to convince you one way or the other. Your thoughts, beliefs, experiences are your own and mine are mine. Further more trust me, I know the definition of what science says a dream is...for many years I have tried to understand who I was and so I did lots of research because there is a plethora of information concerning such topics...

So lets examine the general definition of dreams:

According to the Wikipedia- Dreams are the images, thoughts and feelings experienced while asleep, particularly strongly associated with rapid eye movement sleep.
According to the Merriam- Webster Online Dictionary: Dreams are a series of thoughts, images, or emotions occurring during sleep. Or an experience of waking life having the characteristics of a dream: as a visionary creation of the imagination.
Other definitions: Dreams are like a daydream or a state of mind marked by abstraction or release from reality or an object seen in a dreamlike state or vision.

All these explain the meaning of dreams because I truly believe there can not be only one meaning pertaining to the subject. And there are many, many more meanings. Again I am aware of them all. And I do fall asleep and dream like everyone else...however, whether you choose to believe or not I have had the type of dreams that come true or have true meaning. And I have had this happen to me for my entire life. Some say it's a gift. Others are freaked out. I was a little girl the first time I spooked my friend and told her something I wasn't suppose to know.

(Time for dream sharing) Here's the one dream about someone I will never forget: I was a little girl. I had to be about 8 or 9. I told my mother that I disliked a church woman that used to come around on Sundays sometimes after church. Because I dreamed of this woman being dark and ugly. That may not make sense to you at first but you have to remember I was a child so for me to dream of someone being dark and ugly was very scary and significant. After that dream...for some reason I just did not like that woman. She use to smile at me and be very nice but I did not like her. One day I remember trying really hard to like her because my mother had told her what my favorite food was and she actually made it for me. Still I hated when this woman came around. She made me feel creepy. My mom thought I was being a brat.

(Here's the Conclusion) It turned out that this woman had spread horrible lies amongst the church ladies about my mother. She had also betrayed my mother by sharing secrets and information that my mom had confided in her about. The entire time she was a HUGE trouble maker. So I guess...based on her appearance she wasn't a dark ugly monster like in my dream but her character was dark and ugly.

So you see there is a huge difference in going to bed as usual, having a normal dream and waking up. I have normal sleeping nights all the time and think nothing of it. But over the years I have learned how to determine which dreams are which. Even if I don't understand them.... Listen folks, I'm country so I'm just going to say it like this, "dere aint dat much coincidence in da world" LOL....

And this happens to me all the time. Feel free to think I'm a freak of nature or plain crazy. Feel free to explain to me what dreams are and think that I simply don't understand...LOL...I wish that's what most people would think...instead when I tell them something that spooks them...most of them are scared away. That is why I have kept many things to myself over the years and if I have felt the dream was shown to me for a reason I would just pray about it.

So there ya go guys...me in a nut shell with my nutty self. Ha! Life is grand. Before I go, check out some of these blogs. I'm reading them and they are pretty interesting...

Of course I love reading even when I'm resting. I've always been an avid reader. Reading is therapeutic for me. I have tons of mystery novels, etc... so feel free to point in the direction of an awesome blogger.

Well time to scoot out of here. Remember I'm not trying to convince you. Life is too short for that but time is forever so I'm living my life and connecting with precious souls all over the world.

Dreamphobia! Do I have to dream this stuff?!

What has she gotten herself into this time?!....

Oh, sorry guys. How are you today? I sincerly hope you are all doing well or at least trying to cope. Just know that if you're around to complain...then you're doing better than you think. I've learned that peception is everything...

Anywho...of course I'm going to tell you about one of my dreams. Not because its life changing but because I rarely have contact with this person so it was a bit interesting to dream her up. (You know...like dialing someone up on the phone...only I wasn't trying to dream about her but oh well)Yeah so, I dreamed about my sister 'n law and although we are friendly towards each other we just simply don't have a close relationship. Besides she lives in another city so that doesn't help...

Anyway, so here goes...

The Dream- She was on the phone trying to reach my husband. However, he was asleep and she wanted me to wake him. I told her that I would not do that but would give him a message. She tried to be a bit aggressive and push me to give him the phone. I was firm. I didn't raise my voice or anything like that but I told her that I would not wake him and she backed down and became friendly.

The Dream shifts- It appeared that we were hanging out and going shopping and doing a lot of things together that we normaly do not do. We went out to eat and just spent a lot of time together.

The Dream shifts- She called my husband and did not get an answer on his phone. She then called him and left a message.(It was strange because it was almost as if she had wrote a letter to him as well...I don't know. You know how dreams are. But the letter and the message she left basically said the same thing)She said in the message: "__________ don't let that b*tch come between us. Just remember we have a relationship that she can't touch. Please don't let her come between us."

She continued to almost plead with him to not let me come between the two of them. Even though she was talking to my husband in the dream she used a different name. One I had never heard before but it was a nick name.

Now people you need to know that I usually dream very literal dreams. Most of the time they come out exactly as I dreamt it...but there are some dreams that are similar in form- meaning they won't come out exactly as you dreamed it but it will be extremly similar. For example; When I was younger and my brother was in high school, I dreamed he got into a fight with a guy over a girl. The next day...and I do mean the VERY NEXT DAY he got into a fight but according to my brother it had nothing to do with a girl. He bumped into a guy in the hallway and the guy got his panties in a bunch and wanted to flex his muscles...So you see my brother may have not fought over a girl but the fact remained that he still got into a fight...

...And...So it was with the dream about my sister 'n law. At first I interpreted the dream to be all about me when it had nothing to do with me at all! I later found out that she is friends with a guy whom she considers to be somewhat like a brother to her and a woman came into the picture...and well you can follow the dream to figure out what the situation is like...

So yeah people...I'm still dreaming...are you?
Oh, before I go...Thanks for reading and thanks for your input...

Here's what some of you said:

Phil- "fascinating you are clairyvoant"
My response- Umm... I don't know about that but I do think I have a precious gift.

Jane Opal- "Just one question: Do you believe that this is a God-given talent?"
My response- Yes.

Chanyn- "I'm not sure if I am a dreamer or not. I have situations that I can swear I have dreamt before, but don't remember. I think I should start a dream journal to write in when I wake up."
My response- Good idea! Writing my dreams down helped me...especially when I needed to go back and clarify something.

Well that's all for now folks.

Later days...
