Dream


Dreaming is a natural behavior in human beings. Like breathing and receiving energy from our surroundings, every conscious mind develops hand in hand with a subconscious mind that tends to communicate with the individual through dreams. Undoubtedly it’s a remarkable tool. We as spiritual beings might as well be able to understand this method of deciphering one’s own mind. Our dreams may serve as an indicator informing us our specific instantaneous mental state, or a certain idea we can’t seem to get rid off. Our imagination develops a series of coordinated events in which a sequential order of outcomes brings about projections of an alternate reality, our mind has achieved a vivid portrayal.

Sometimes I remember having one dream in a particular night, other times I remember having a few dreams per night. I may recognize one or two events or details, but they swiftly vanish away. I’ve always found interesting the human capacity to actually fully remember a dream, and some may even achieve to lucid dream (to purposefully control a dream). And thus I’ve been interested for a while in getting to have a say in the sequential projection of these vivid images. I don’t recall ever having the same dream twice, but never the less I’ve sensed some similarities throughout a different number of dreams. I can’t help but to wonder that this must all mean something. How would my life change if I found out what it meant?

The morning I wrote the journal dream task, I stumbled in fascination. Keeping a written record of a dream is an excellent way to decipher the meaning of our dreams, to use it to our advantage. We need to enhance proper, productive and optimal communication with our own self; this will bring about the opportunity to manifest the same behavior towards others. I’ll definitely make this activity a well-structured habit; this will basically lead my way to understanding my own self, and subsequently understanding my relationships with others.

In writing seemingly insignificant details I could remember right after waking up, I managed to weave a coherent simulation of the dream I had that night. But it wasn’t long before the rushes of thoughts cascaded upon me and made me shift my attention. My conscious mind started focusing on the things I had to do before undertaking the various tasks I was bound to accomplish throughout the day.

Why do we dream? What should we dream about? Our dreams work as a compass, if it points towards fear we need to grow in that area, if it points towards faith and happiness it means we should pursue thus path to righteousness. Dreams indicate our intra-relationship current status; they reveal the predominant thoughts in our heads while inextricably affecting the outcome of our inter-relationships.

  2. Great post, do you think dreaming is a behavior? I think it's more unconscious rather than planned and controlled... It's really interesting how dream sometimes keep repeating themselves until we finally uncover the message in them.
