Point of Reflection

Somehow I have been having some crazy dreams..

I dont know why but I dreamt of a hamster yesterday.. and while I was wondering what that hamster was doing in my pet’s cage, that bugger was busy chewing whatever.. and then the hamster turned into a moth.. and flew..

the only thing that was real was me. !!!

Crazy I tell you.

Some dream facts :

• Did you know that you cannot dream if you are snoring.. ?
• Dreams are indispensable.  A lack of dream activity can mean protein deficiency or a personality disorder. ( then I must be having excess protein)
• Five minutes after the end of the dream, half the content is forgotten. After ten minutes, 90% is lost. ( How can I remember my dreams to the T even after days.. hmmm)
• Men tend to dream more about other men, while women dream equally about men and women. (now that is debatable)
• People who are giving up smoking have longer and more intense dreams. (Weird)

Dreams of Falling

As a teenager, I often had dreams of falling from a high ledge and would jump in my bed as if I fell and touched the ground..

Now interpretation from a website says this:

Falling dreams are another theme that is quite common in the world of dreams. Contrary to a popular myth, you will not actually die if you do not wake up before your hit the ground during a fall.

As with most common dream themes, falling is an indication of insecurities, instabilities, and anxieties. You are feeling overwhelmed and out of control in some situation in your waking life. This may reflect the way you feel in your relationship or in your work environment. You have lost your foothold and can not hang on or keep up with the hustle and bustle of daily life. When you fall, there is nothing that you can hold on to. You more or less are forced toward this downward motion without any control. This lost of control may parallel a waking situation in your life.

Falling dreams also often reflect a sense of failure or inferiority in some circumstance or situation. It may be the fear of failing in your job/school, loss of status, or failure in love. You feel shameful and lack a sense of pride. You are unable to keep up with the status quo or that you don’t measure up.

According to Freudian theory, dreams of falling indicate that you are contemplating giving into a sexual urge or impulse. You maybe lacking indiscretion.

Falling dreams typically occur during the first stage of sleep. Dreams in this stage are often accompanied by muscle spasms of the arms, legs, and the whole body. These sudden contractions, also known as myclonic jerks. Sometimes when we have these falling dreams, we feel our whole body jerk or twitch and we awaken from this jerk. It is thought that this jerking action is part of an arousal mechanism that allows the sleeper to awaken and become quickly alert and responsive to possible threats in the environment.

According to biblical interpretations, dreams about falling have a negative overtone and suggest that man is acting and walking according to his own way of thinking and not those of the Lord.
