Why do people dream. Some says we dream because we see something and our brain react by dreaming. Its all just the power of imagination... There are also people who dreams and their dream become reality... Are your dream just an imagination or is it conveying something?? When i was young, i often have the same dream where i was brought by some energy and flying in the air.... very fast that i couldn't even open my eyes.... its really terrifying... Anyway i am glad that now i am not having that dream anymore :D

I would never see a dream as just imagination. i would believe that dreams do try to tell us something. Sometimes we aren't sure just how to listen. our subconscious opens the door from dream to relaity. we just have to learn how to follow.

There are many sources that defines what dreams really mean. However, i am not sure whether it is real or which source can be trusted.

i heard it was our subconscious thoughts that are responsible for our dreams. it was somehow a representation of how we really feel. me too, when i was young, i used to dream of flying, but i am enjoying it. i used it as a from of transportation, but it was good because i can control it. a friend of mine told me it was pride, coz it feels good. another told me it's about a feeling of achievement. but in your case, maybe it's saying that you were running away from something, a fear that you wished to escape from...

There are three types of dreams. 1) Dreams that come from the self. This is the most common type experienced by most of us. The dreams come for our sub-conscious, based on things like our wishes, hopes, problems, thoughts, and conscious imaginations. Once I solved a mathematical problem in a dream. Trained psychics can enter or control someone else's dreams 2) Nightmares Nightmares are said to come from evil spirits who can detect our fears. 3) Divine dreams They are dreams which later on prove to be true.

they say that dreams are warnings. others say that they are the opposite of what will be or is actually happening. it is also brought about by our innermost desires and fears, i believe.

From information that I have read, it is said that dreams are a way that our minds work out problems and stresses that we have in our lives. It is a way to help our bodies rid us of some of our problems in an attempt to relax us so that we can then feel refreshed and attempt to solve problems. I have read that there are people that do get premonitions. Thee is a huge study that has been going on for years about this. Although, not much information has been released in regards to it.

Well I really don't think dreams can portray an image of what's to happen. According to studies dreams are based on what you did that day or what you thought about. But who knows..this is a crazy world and anything can happen. The definition of dreams is no exception; maybe dreams have a higher purpose. i would always have dreams of my past now I just have nightmare's, but I think that's happening because of all the recent stress I have been experiencing

Well dreaming is one thing which has no limits and everyone of us living in this world is dreaming. Some have beautiful dreams, some terrifying and some horrible dreams. But they cant stop it in coming in their night world. It is beyond imagination of a mankind. It lives in our night world with us every time. Let it be and come lets all have a sweet dream.
