When you dream, do you remember what it is about?

I have heard that people dream every time they go to sleep but I do not always remember mine so I tend to think that I do not dream very often. When I do dream it is usually about something that is relevant to my life. I often dream about things that are about to happen as well. The last dream I had was about a friend of my grandparents that had cancer and had dreamed that he had passes. The next day I spoke with my grandparents and found out that he had in fact, passed away that night. Do you think your dreams are trying to tell you something or do you think they are just regular dreams?

nope, usually i don't but when the dream is on it's so vivid. sometimes i can still remember JUST after waking. then i will tell my hubby, hey i had a weird dream. and share the plot with him. but if it's after, say i brush my teeth, then chances are i would have forgotten it completely.
there's a strange space between sleep and wakefulness where dreams and reality blur. sometimes i get stressful dreams. then i wake up feeling totally unrested. i think dreams are a by -product of your life. not so much a predictor of life.

I do this myself sometimes. I don't remember my dreams. I do think that dreams do mean something though. i mean last week I had a dream about my grandmother who has just passed away last month. it was a good dream like a family get together. I think this might of been her way of showing me that she is alright.

I think I dream most if not all nights. However, often I cannot remember what it is that I have dreamt about, the times I usually remember is if something wakes me up and I have long enough to think about my dream and saving it into my conscious memory. I have experienced that deja vu kind of feeling in certain situations and it's like - didn't I dream about this? I don't know enough about dreams to work out whether they are just dreams or if it is our subsconscious telling us something.

well,when we learned anatomy..my prof told us that it was just some mixed up memories that your brain is showing you when you sleep..
but most of the times, my dreams come true and when they do..i close my eyes and do'nt wanna hear anything because it just freaks me out..
