Hmm.. I don't dream, or maybe I do and I forget. I bought this book called Understanding Dreams - how to influence, record and interpret dreams. I'll just tell you what it says about dreams..

The Science of sleep and dreams
Science has come a long way since the 'heavy supper' theories of the ancient Greeks to explain the physiological proccesses of the sleeping state. However, we are no nearer to the understanding the necessity for sleep or the nature and purpose of our dreams than we were more than 2000 years ago. Science has indentified, measure and anilysed the biological and neurological procesesses involved and noted the traumatic effects of sleep deprivation, but has so far failed to explain the mysteries of the human mind.

I don't really have a clue what any of that means, but nevermind maybe you will..

YAY! I was on that site in Computing at school, it's soo cool!

I stopped remembering dreams when I was like 11.. I had this really scary dream. Not a nightmare, it was worse - I was walking in the place where I used to live.. and the world was going to end, I got really upset in my dream and I tried to go and say bye to everyone, my family etc.. But then, it went all white and all I heard was this soothing music and I woke up in my bed sweating, and I couldn't get back to sleep.. then after that I stopped sleeping for a while but then I started sleeping again. It was so scary and since then I think I have had 1 dream which I remembered, and it was about habbo..

I've been thinking a lot about this lately:
What are dreams? Are they wishes we make in our sleep, or things our heart wants, without us knowing it?
Or are they just stories we make up?
Yeah, some dreams are very unrealistic, but take the realistic details out, could those bits be what we want?
Put your answers here.

As far as i know, dreams are simply your imagnition creating stories top help you interpret the days events, and store important stuff to long term memory and forget pointless stuff while you sleep, it is also what stops your brain from simply shutting off (u would be dead)

Athogh teh dreams themslves wil bair little resmbale to real life, they are most likly senrios genrted by subconises doubts worrys or hopes.

What's wrong ang?

[AngJum]

Why did I even go to all that bother to try and tell you what a dream was? I just got ignored, no one seems to care
