Most people dream. Some dream often. Some have a recurring dream. Others have scary dreams. Some dreams are very realistic. There are probably a couple more kinds of dreams too!
Last night I had a very realistic dream. I dreamed I was on a long bus trip from Saskatoon to Edmonton return. It was a school trip. I'm not sure if I was a teacher or a student or if the students were adults. That part was fuzzy in my dream.
The realistic part comes in when I dreamed that I left my nice red jacket in Edmonton. I was upset about leaving the jacket. Then I discovered that my nice red cap was missing. I was really upset. Had I left it at the last place we stopped? I stopped the bus to decide what to do. We decided to carry on as the cap was not worth driving the bus back to look for it.
As soon as we got going on the bus I noticed a cap peak in front of me. I touched my head and there was the cap. The cap had been on my head all the time. I was embarrassed for having stopped the bus and making such a big fuss.
I remember dreaming , "This would make a good blog post!" Then I woke up. It took me a minute to come to my senses and realize that I had been dreaming.
So is this an indication that I have been blogging too much that I dream about it? Do you have dreams that seem very realistic until you wake up?
I dream crazy realistic dream a lot. I got a chuckle out of yours.
ReplyDeleteI think some people dream much more than others.
Deleteoh, that's too funny! and cute, too!
ReplyDeleteIt was a surprising dream!
DeleteI am a vivid dreamer too! No you are not blogging too much. You make me smile! :)
ReplyDeleteI don't dream very often.
DeleteI don't dream often any more. i used to have teacher nightmares, but they are almost gone now. Funny that blog fodder was part of your dream.
ReplyDeleteTeacher dreams? I've had em. I've been retired 17 years and I don't think I have them anymore.
DeleteYou are lucky it was a dream. Similar things happen to me whilst I'm awake.
ReplyDeleteOh, I can lose things too. Sometimes I just don't remember where I put them.
DeleteIt has been a while and my dreams are too fuzzy to try to put a message to them. If the dream is realistic I usually find it haunting.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure about the issue of dreams having meaning. I think dreams are a result of activities which cause the dream.
DeleteBoy, I sure do! That was a doozy, though. Last night I had a very realistic dream and had to check to see if it was a dream or not. I don't think you blog too much, Red. Just right! :-)
ReplyDeleteMy dream was realistic. I was shocked when I woke up and it was a dream.
DeleteCreative imagination helps the blogging process. I think your doing just fine keep us all entertained....:) And for free at that.
ReplyDeleteThanks. When I blog , I hope people find it interesting. I do think about an audience when I write.
DeleteMy dreams have always been pretty realistic, and I dream in color too. I liked hearing about yours - a lot of mine sometimes are quite far-fetched, with crazy things happening.
ReplyDeleteYes dreams can become very confused and crazy things happen. Close your eyes and look up to the left. Spell Montana in your mind and see what happens.
Deletelol well anything that makes blog fodder surely works. I have such dreams as well
ReplyDeleteRed I would love to know if there is really meaning behind dreams or if it's just that... only a dream. I very seldom remember my dreams, I believe because by the time I finally find my way to bed I'm so exhausted I must hit REM sleep in about 3 minutes. I know I don't sleep enough, I'm too busy being intoxicated by lifes small wonders.
ReplyDeleteIs there such a thing as blogging too much? I didn't think so for about 5 years, but lately as I'm sure you've noticed I've cut way back, again I'm too busy savoring this journey and I like to dream while I'm wide awake. :-)
Have a wonderful week!
Always great comments. I don't think dreams have meanings. I realize that there are many who interpret dreams Keep on being energetic about life.
DeleteI dream a lot and most of my dreams are like yours...I am looking for something. Last night I dreamed I went to work in a pair of shorts (I am retired and I don't wear shorts). I wanted to go home and change clothes but someone had stolen my car. It was a relief to wake up. :)
ReplyDeleteI like your dream. It's funny how one bad situation is related to another.
DeleteI have an exceptionally realistic dream that repeats in my head. It's about a house I'm living in and it's incredibly detailed. Even as I write this I can close my eyes and envision this house. But I've never lived in this house or to my knowledge even visited it.
ReplyDeleteIt's quite common to have similar dreams repeatedly.
DeleteI dream a lot and can cope with 'just dreams'. I grade my dreams into dreams, night ponies, night mares and night stallions. It's the night stallions I really have difficulty with. I have tried to isolate every food, drink and behaviour but can find no causal link between various severity of dream and any likely cause.
ReplyDeleteScary dreams aren't fun.
DeleteI enjoy your blogging don't stop Red. I enjoyed your dream. Your an x teacher. Now write while your awake and make it a mini book continued that dream of your own version.Your grandkids I a m sure later would like it. I bet you could do it and it would be great.
ReplyDeleteMy son has things happen without a dream. He once told me he was in the mall and he knew so and so would be coming around the corner in five minutes. He looked up and sure enough the guy was there and they had not seen each other or made contact for many years or live near each other. He said he has that allot. I dream funny ones. My hubby so far every night the last two weeks talks out loud a sentence. Sometimes in dutch and most times English.
I read some of your comments where people had dream. Very interesting. Like Stephen's dream. Henny Penny. Montanagirl. Far Side Of Fifty, Vickit 42.
I have books in my head that i would like to write but I am too lazy. I would like to do a biography which would include the family history and how it shaped my life. I would also like to do a school history.
DeleteI have done projects with my father a few times and he has been gone 20 years.
ReplyDeleteI dream about my Dad once in a while.
DeleteSounds like something I would do in real life! I am forever searching for my reading glasses, only to find them on the top of my head. I think maybe you like telling stories, and you knew that what happened in your dream would make for a good story. :-)
ReplyDeleteI think many people spend a fair bit of their lives looking for something. I looked all over my yard yesterday for my garden trowel. I found it.
DeleteNo I have never dreamed about blogging, ha,ha, funny. But when walking around it is always on my mind when seeing something special. I can use it for my blog.
ReplyDeleteI think the creative part of your brain is thinking up interesting blog posts! I haven't dreamt about blogging, but I had a dream once that I met all my blogging friends in one location. It was actually kind of fun!
ReplyDeleteMost of my dreams scare me to death and I struggle to wake up from them.
ReplyDeleteA nice dream about a red cap, I must try and have one myself.
Yes indeed!! Last night I was dreaming that my friend and I were in jail and had been wrongfully convicted. And we looked awful in orange!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I've absolutely had those dreams. I love it that you were upset that you lost those things, but it all worked out in the end. This shows what a positive person you are!
