A Dreamy Tale

If your dreams don't scare you, they aren't big enough........

So true does that sound. Have you ever wondered what dreams actually are ? Are they what we see with your eyes closed ? I disagree, these are what we see from our eyes open. These can keep us awake. A dream is not something you sleep upon. It is the fire that keeps you going through the thick and thin. It's a vision, it's a drug.

This was a great thought to start with. For all those dreamers out there, here are some amazing facts about dreams that you see with your eyes closed .....

1. The colder the room you sleep in, higher are the chances of having a bad dream.

2. Every human being dreams. However, some believe that they don't. They just forget theirs.

3. Further, it believed that if you are unable to sleep at night then it is possible that you are awake in someone else's dream.

4. The faces of the people we see in our dreams are people we have actually seen before even if just for a split of a second. Our brain cannot create faces. 

5. Dreams reveal feelings that you have hidden or repressed because dreams are the reflection of unconscious mind. (So, don't consider them as being irrelevant.)

6. In average lifetime, we spend 6 years dreaming.

7. We cannot snore and dream at the same time.So, everytime you see someone snoring, you can be sure they aren't dreaming.

8. Anxiety and fear are two common emotions experienced in dreams.

9. Blind people dream as well. Their dreams include experiences of their other senses. 

10. You won't believe but dreams have brought about many breakthroughs. On the contrary, I am sure you would be able to recall that Einstein dreamt about electrocuting cows and went on to give the Special Theory of Relativity.

11. Dream catcher is a small hoop containing a horsehair mesh decorated with feathers and beads. It is said to catch bad dreams and is believed by American Indians to give its owners good dreams. 

Happy Dreaming...........
