Dream A Little Dream

Don’t feel like listening? Listen instead.

I am a dreamer by all definitions. There's a lot of things I can figure out with time, experience, or research, but the one thing I can never be certain of is how to interpret my dreams. Everyone dreams, but there's been an interesting study that majority of people don’t remember their dreams the next morning. I almost always remember what I dreamt the night before, of course as days go on I slowly forget the details except when the dream is a little odd. I read that the dreams you remember most are the dreams that have a message. I don't know where the messages are coming from, but in my experience, I agree.

I also read somewhere when the mind is stressed or going though unexpected changes, your subconscious sends you messages in your dreams to help you identify elements in your waking life. With all that has been going on in my life, my dreams been leaving distinct residue on my mind. A few nights ago, I dreamt that someone handed me an egg. The egg cracked and I saw the yolk. There mixed meanings of seeing an egg in your dream, but you also have to consider other parts of the dream, like the color of the egg, what type of egg, and who else was in the dream. Generally, having an egg dream is a good omen representing new opportunities. But it can also represent privacy or a void of your emotions. That fact that in my dream the egg crack and opened up could signify that I need to open up or speak out about my feelings about something.

Several weeks ago I dreamt of a guy I know and in the dream it shown me that he got involved with someone he told me he never had anything going on with. — Isn't that how it always happens? The person someone tell you not to be worried about ends up being the same person they start fooling with some time later? Probably because of all the “friendly” times they shared together and one time they just took it further. Anyway, I’ve had dreams like this before were there is some type of message stemming from my intuition that tells me my suspicions aren’t all off based. I once had a dream about a man I was sleeping with and in the dream he is walking away from me and saying to me, “You need to go…” In my dream I was upset, confused, and hurt. About a month later it comes out that the man started seeing someone and didn't tell me until I began to question him about his behavior. Just like in my dream, I was upset, confused, and hurt. He tried to excuse the fact of not telling me by saying he feels at peace when he’s around me and he didn't want to ruin that. — Men like this will always have issues managing their feelings with different women. They don’t know how to separate lust and love and they damage people along the way. — ❗️ Goodness, if I ever decide to write a book, there’s one name that would keep coming up, and that man is entirely convinced I had several partners in the time that I’ve known him 😒. No sir, I’m one of the good ones.

When I was still with my ex and I was already on the verge of ending things due to him having a child outside our home (this isn't a secret, everyone knows, my family knows, his family knows, the town we lived in knows, all our friends know. It was an embarrassment for both of us, especially him considering how my life has improved tremendously after leaving). I had a dream that the other woman had 2 children. 2 boys to be exact and at that time she only had the one son…fast forward a few months later, she is pregnant again and has a boy! And yes by the same man. Yup, that did it for me…on top of many other things in our damaged relationship. I told you, when men fck up, they fck up pretty badly and when they do, don’t ever let him touch you again. Although, if you're the kind of woman who just gets better after pain, then you'll no longer have any interest on those past men anyways…What did I say before?The further ahead you get in life, the more your type becomes less your type.” — Men who you move on from knew a part of you that no longer exists, and that part is the soft spot you used to have for him. The feelings are never the same again.

I think I have dreams like this because I’m a very engaged person when I’m involved with someone, I may not always show it, but when I open my heart to people I’m blindly loyal and the universe seems to find a way to tell me I need to step back when the person isn't giving me the same energy. But after any type of heartache, I do have dreams that send symbolic elements referring to healing, growth, and perseverance. For instance, after being severely disappointed, I dreamt of water lilies. Dreams of water lilies signify an evolution from a negative starting point to a positive end. The flower represents rebirth and a willingness to try again while the leaf or pad of the plant represents a solid place from which to gain stability when the world feels as though it is constantly shifting and changing.

I’ve had dreams about people I’ve not reached out to in a while and when I do finally give them a call, I learned major life news about them. Or someone I care about will popup in my dream that wakes me up out of my sleep; when this happens it usually because something severe had just happened to them. I also have dreams about people who have passed and relatives of other people who I’ve never met, for instance, I never met my ex’s mother because she passed before I met him but she appeared in my dream when I was pregnant with our first child.

I heard that when people have near death incidences the wall between life and the spiritual world becomes thin. I’ve had several near death experiences in my life which is why I am convinced that I have Guardian Angels or at least someone on the other side looking out for me. The first one was when I was 3 years old, something severe happened to me that people started to lose hope that I would pull through. I do not know if it is because I am very intuitive or somehow I am closely connected to the spiritual world, but for the most part, my dreams seem to tell me what to be conscious of or what to be prepared for.
