Dreams-One of my Favorite Past Times

Don't you love dreams? They are like a one way ticket to your planet-what you want to feel, hear, see, or touch, it's all up to you. As you lie on your bed at the end of the day, slowly slipping into darkness your subconscious kicks in, sending you to a better place. Some people say that your dreams are created from your feelings of that day, or sometimes you dream about something that's been bothering you lately. Did you know that if you are thinking about a problem you have right before you go to sleep, your subconscious will continue to work on that problem during your sleep? Sometimes it reveals the answer to you in your dream, or you just wake up knowing the answer the next morning. Try to think about the last dream you can remember, and now try to go back to the day before that dream and see if there's any connection between the two. I remember once immediately waking from a dream at one in the morning and rushing over to my desk to finish a complicated math problem I had given up on earlier that night.
Dreams can be such an awesome experience, showing you your imaginative potential as you enjoy the gentle ride through the night of wonder and awe. Dreams can be the inspiration for art, literature, and other creative activities. But not all dreams are warm and fuzzy. The imagination has its dark side also.
Dreams can turn to nightmares in a blink of an eye, especially if you've seen a horror movie lately. Nightmares can really turn nasty and leave you lying in bed, with your eyes wide open, scared to even move in fear that your nightmares were more than just that.
Hopefully you enjoy your dreams every night, or maybe you don't. I actually look forward to sleeping every night-wondering which super power I'll have or some secret mission I'm being sent on or maybe I'll just win the lottery. It's all up to you.
