Just the other day I had a dream about my wife and I hiking in the Pyrenees mountains. It had been her wish to one day visit them again as she grew up in a small town sorrounding them. She often went there with her family in her youth but never managed to do a full adventure hike along the southern ridge. Before she passed away I had made a promise to her that we would make an effort to see them one last time. Her illness progressed more rapidly than we could have anticipated and alas I was not able to keep my promise. That dream made me feel nostalgic for her presence again and in some way I believe it offered some solace for my regrets of dissapointing her.
Last night I had a dream that I found a big comfy sweater and I thought "this would look really good with tights!"
I didn't realize it was a dream until I woke up and put on tights, realizing it never actually existed. I don't even know what it looks like, I just know I loved it!
The ones that make me happy are when passed family members or pets stop by for a visit. I remember having one dream where my grandmother, (who passed in February), interrupted one of my dreams and I got to finally give her a hug goodbye. For a while my dog Skipper, a skipperkey, would show up and talk to me. She was blind and fearful in her last years so it was quite relaxing to know she was alright.
I dream a lot.
The only dreams I think I've ever been happy in are ones where a lifetime passes, or years pass, with me living a full life happily in the dream. But then you wake up, and there is a heartbreak.
thanks, OP. that was such a nice read.
mine is: having dinner with the woman i loved. we sat beside each other and talked the night away. it was punctuated by laughter and every word just seemed right.
reality is we dont talk anymore.
That's fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
Had a dream recently that I've defenestrated myself out of 10+ floor. It was calm actually and I've didn't die or was hurt. Just laying on the street till I've woken up.
Mine dreams just vanish a seconds I wake. I have tryed to treasure them for some time but they just gone. My life is not suitable for dreams, neither the ones that I make awake.
I've read that the best way to remember your dreams better is to start a dream diary. Write as much as you can remember as quickly as possible when you wake up, and you should gradually remember more and more.
Maybe, I feeling to forced to take a pen as soon I wake up, or even my phone. Actually I'm okay to forget it, you maybe lost some happiest one but aswell make it go the worst without feeling too bad.
