The Side Effects…Dreams
Man, I woke up this morning feeling extremely tired! Yesterday, I had dreams from ditching school and getting caught, having friends on the Oprah show, people telling me that they’re not getting paid any more to do their job, and talking to animals that were going into war. There were so many weird, disjointed pieces to my dreams. The Oprah portion was very emotional as someone I knew was sharing the many difficult events in their life. They had Oprah crying, the crowd crying and me crying in my dream. My alarm was set this morning to 5:30am but I didn’t hear anything until I woke up at 7:30am!
Anyhow, I’m never scared of my dreams. Sometimes, even the really bad ones are sobering to something that I’ve been neglecting in my life. For example, when people in my dream die, or I die, it puts in to perspective again death which may come at any moment for any one of us.
Here are some interesting quotes I read about “dreams” in a different sense:
“When we are dreaming alone it is only a dream. When we are dreaming with others, it is the beginning of reality.” –Dom Helder Camara
“The most pitiful among men is he who turns his dreams into silver and gold.” –Khalil Gibran
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” –Mark Twain
