A Bad Dream

When someone hears the word dream, what words come to their mind? It might be a hope, a trance, or even a wonder. I think of the word ambition. A dream to me is something that I look forward to and it keeps me moving forward to achieve a major goal in my life. Dreams are different in each perspective, but some try to crush others’ dreams. Some think their dreams are more valuable than others. However, who’s to say someone’s dreams are worthless? No one should, but unfortunately that is not the…

making almost every known fact unprovable. This means for every theory about dreaming, it is up to the dreamer to draw their own conclusions. With that being said, it doesn’t mean that we know nothing about dreams, in fact, we study dreams just about every day even without knowing it. You and I dream every night, whisked away to another world where anything is possible. But what if I told you that you make up the rules in that world and can control everything that happens around you. This would…

handful of my teeth. I start to panic because I don’t know what is happening and I can’t even speak or smile without people realizing I don’t have teeth. As the anxiety builds I awaken and come to my senses. It was just a dream, a dream I’ve had before but never the less a dream. As I lie in bed remembering how awful it was to feel my own teeth crumble in my mouth I can’t help but wonder what it all meant. Especially…

interested me for as long as I can remember. What do they mean and where do they come from? I was always fascinated by these movies that played in our heads while we are sleeping and wondered how people with physical and mental disorders dream, and if they dream differently.

My specific topic focuses on the symbols present while dreaming and questions the patterns…

TO DREAM OR NOT TO DREAM, WHAT IS REALITY? Inception vs Descartes.

Dreams are an essential part of our sleep. They are a series of thoughts, images and sensations occurring in a person’s mind while they are asleep. Often when we have dreams whether good or bad and when we wake up it’s hard to remember what the dream was about. Scientists define dreams as hallucinatory images.
