Dreams Unlimited

Its funny how mind works, huh. One would always wish what one’s mind thinks is what one wants it to think. If I start talking about the dreams one can have, that would really strike some strings. Well, I am not a “mind reader”, but I guess if Darwin was right about human evolution, adaptation and perseverance, I think I could find many people connecting their stories and thoughts to mine. Anyways, I’m not going to tell any story this time. Stories give moral and I really don’t want anyone to follow my story’s “teachings”.


Interestingly, when I start dreaming, it’s like, I am a director of some movie or play. I mean my dream proceeds in different scenarios and locations. What amazes me how I find only familiar faces doing the “roles”. Even funnier thing is that even my “actors” in utter disguise are effortlessly recognizable (I know, it would make a crappy movie, if that’s what you are thinking). But seldom do I get to see a new movie in my dreams. Those rare moments would be: when I meet new people or get to know something about a known person which changes his/her “image” considerably in my mind.
In my opinion, dreams don’t just come like that. They do have a purpose, may be they bring to foreground the things one sometimes might ignore. It works for me. May be, the unconscious mind catches some details which the “busy” conscious mind might miss at first go. I think they also help people to introspect and realize their mistakes which when conscious, they would never do. May be that’s why we don’t really tell others about our dreams. Hai na?
Sadly, dreams are extremely short-lived. One tends to forget the dreams one gets, though they are such an integral part of one’s-self. I usually get up in the morning and write down “important points” about the interesting new dream I had the last night. Yeah, I know that’s a freaky thing to do. But I think that’s the only way one can get to know one’s dreams as no-one can recall dreams if asked about. And I think dreams really do tell one’s self a great deal about the true nature one has. I have learnt a lot about my self through my dreams and I intend to continue that in future too.
