What causes dreams? Well I have a few personal opinions, and
one of them is that you can somewhat control what you are going to dream about.
I say this because sometimes right before bed, I will think of something that I
want to happen, later on I will end up dreaming about it and it will be ten
times better than what I first thought of. I think our imagination really takes
off while we are dreaming and it’s a way to kind of exercise that part of our
brains.
I also think that dreams come out of
our fears, because some nights I will be thinking about something that bothers
me or something that I am afraid of and then I will sometimes dream about it.
Having dreams about fears can also be a good thing because you can conquer it
in your mind and maybe find a solution on how you can conquer that fear. These
types of dreams can also help you to solve your own problems.
One night I was thinking about how I was
angry at a person and I was trying to find out different ways to solve that
issue. None of my solutions were really that good and I remember having a dream
that I was screaming at that person and crying and it felt so real, I remember waking
up out of breath and really confused. But anyways I didn't end up screaming at
that person to solve the problem, I just chose silence which is what I usually
go for.
Silence can be a strong response...it's one I choose often as well. I agree that our minds sort out all kinds of things while we sleep. I like what you say about dreaming being like "exercise for our brains."
