What would you do if you could control your dreams?

Wow….

I can remember being slapped across the head as a youngster many times.

Stop daydreaming.

Have you been told that before?  

I guess I was always daydreaming as a youngster, with a big imagination.

So what exactly is a day dream?

It’s actually a level of consciousness of being partially asleep and partially awake.  It happens while your awake and your imagination is running wild.  It’s a place where you loose reality and are in a state of imagination & fantasy.

Then there’s the Lucid Dreamer:

This is when you have a dream and you know your dreaming.  Have you ever said to yourself in your dream “Wake Up” Wake up”?  

I personally have had dreams where Iv practically yelled it out.  Wake up.  Whereas other dreams I want to stay there.

I am aware that people can become an active participant in their own dreams, where they make decisions which influence the outcome of the dream without awakening.

Nightmare Dreams:

This is the dream that is disturbing when you wake up frightened. Nightmares may be a response to real life trauma and situations. These type of nightmares fall under a special category called Post-traumatic Stress Nightmare (PSN).

Nightmares are an indication of a fear that needs to be acknowledged and confronted. It is a way for the subconscious to wake up and take notice. “Pay attention!” 

I suffered from these types of dreams for many years as a youngster and never ever felt safe but as an adult I’m FREE of them.

Recurring Dreams are interesting:

This is when you have a dream that plays over and over again. I used to dream as a child of a man at my grandfathers window trying to take me away.  I had that same dream right up till I was a teenager.

In my awakening hours I looked at it like the man was trying to kidnap me or hurt me.

As I got older I decided to tell my aunt.

Then one day my aunty told me about my pappa the man who looked after me as a new born baby till i was a few years older.  She was dying & she wanted me to know. 

I can remember that day of just snivelling all day, crying.

She told me, my parents had parted ways after I was born and I was left there with them to take care of me.  

In years to come I was taken back by my blood parents and that’s when the dreams started.

It used to play over and over in my dreams, year in year out and I never really knew what it all meant but it certainly locked in on my mind.

After my aunt had told me who pappa was I knew instinctively who the man was at the window of my grandfathers.  He was my pappa trying to take me home.  It makes me cry cause of the saddness in his eyes and in my heart.

He was the pappa that loved me and who I cried for as a youngster.

Recurring dreams repeat themselves Im told cause it depicts in the dream something that remanins unresolved and ignored.  They say once you find a resolution to the problem, your recurring dreams cease. 

They have ceased now cause I have my pappa now and I luv him sooo much. He’s now in his mid 80’s and I’m so happy to have put the missing pieces back into my life.

There are also Prophetic dreams:

Referred to as like being a bit psychic where they can tell the future.  After reading on this particular one it seem the mind is able to piece together bits and pices of information that we may easily overlook or not take seriously.  In other words, your unconscious mind knows what is coming before you consciously piece together the same information. 

I like that one cause I have a goal and a dream and I’m very passionate and excited about it  coming to fruitation.

How about you?

What are your goals for the year 2014?

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. 

 Hold Fast To Your Dreams & Let No-one steal them.

Peace & Luv…
