I still have them and in my dreams it feels so real that I skipped all my classes and couldn't take the final (the guilty makes the dreams even worse!), ahhh! The relationship one is pretty disturbing, and I've those myself. It's the tormenting that is annoying since we can't snap out of it in our dreams! I do very much envy your pleasant dreams, Imelda! I cannot remember any! Maybe calming ones don't wake me up so I cannot remember them? But now that the kids are older, I am definitely getting better and more solid sleep, so I should remember them less and less, right? Thank you for sharing your dreams with me, and I'm so happy you stopped by!Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16187306461239093068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1722828176120073793.post-2002794330039418962014-02-24T22:00:04.477-06:002014-02-24T22:00:04.477-06:00Janna, it certainly was a very good book!

What is with us and these super antagonizing dreams? I've been out of college for 20 years and I'm still dreaming about taking finals!! I think your helmet dream is quite adorable--perhaps you just want to see this sweet man's face and your dream just doesn't allow you to, just like my dreams don't allow me to eat yummy foods! Ha! Anytime I have a romantic dream, if it's not DH, then the man remains faceless. I guess I have no imagination whatsoever. :) Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16187306461239093068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1722828176120073793.post-575982309493518912014-02-24T21:53:56.900-06:002014-02-24T21:53:56.900-06:00Hi, Shannon, I just read an article on Facebook (o...Hi, Shannon, I just read an article on Facebook (of all places) telling us why/how we remember our dreams: we must be interrupted from our REM sleep in order to remember them! So what that means is you're getting better sleep now that before, which means, yay! I know I'm getting more continuous sleep these days, so maybe that's why I don't remember any more Falling and Chasing dreams! Yay for me, too! :)Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16187306461239093068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1722828176120073793.post-15997396409755100782014-02-24T21:51:52.007-06:002014-02-24T21:51:52.007-06:00It is a sad story, Lisa, but sometimes you just ha...It is a sad story, Lisa, but sometimes you just have to look beyond the connections and enjoy the book and writing for what it is. I guess I see it that way or else I'd never want to read any books! I didn't know it was not good to remember dreams! But I know that I forget plenty of them--DH reminds me how much I forget all the time. Interesting that you have both the Falling and Chasing dreams like me! What does that say about us? :) Thanks for reading!Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16187306461239093068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1722828176120073793.post-59850749930019859592014-02-24T16:32:41.580-06:002014-02-24T16:32:41.580-06:00Sandra, I also used to have those falling and chas...Sandra, I also used to have those falling and chasing dreams of yours. I figured, I often had the latter when I was under stress. I have pleasant dreams. In these dreams, I always have some clear water of some sort - a drizzle, a calm ocean with fish swimming. These days, my recurring dreams revolve around me being back in school and being completely unprepared for an exam (because I did not attend a whole sem of classes or did not study or turned in things late. The other theme is of me being engaged to somebody only to realize that I am already married and could not bear hurting or leaving the other one behind. Then I'd wonder if it is wrong to have two husbands. Weird. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1722828176120073793.post-62599856221966503392014-02-24T12:07:41.356-06:002014-02-24T12:07:41.356-06:00It's a good book that can provoke us to do som...It's a good book that can provoke us to do some thinking on our own outside of the story line.<br /><br />I'm all for remembering the "good" dreams- and eating duck, if that brightens the morning! Unfortunately, I most often remember the disturbing dreams!)<br /><br />I've had the falling and being chased ones. I remember one where I'd made it to my car but then kept fumbling and dropping the keys while whoever/whatever-it-was drew closer. Scary! I've also had watiressing dreams - the restaurant is under-staffed and I can't find anything on the order screen to put in orders, people are complaining and getting mad at me. I do not wake up refreshed. Only once did I have a good dream that I remember: I went on a romantic motorcycle ride with this guy (which I'd never do in real life- too dangerous) he set up a picnic and said all kinds of sweet things. Just when he was going to remove his helmet to kiss me, I woke up! (Who knows why he wore the helmet the whole time... that would actually be creepy...)JannaTWriteshttp://jannatwrites.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1722828176120073793.post-59342208981847374692014-02-21T13:49:43.524-06:002014-02-21T13:49:43.524-06:00I rarely remember a dream anymore.

I don't think I could read this book because it'd make me think of how my children would react if I suddenly passed away...too sad...My hubby says it's not good to remember your dreams. It's better to forget them. Maybe because of the negative aspects you write of. Nevertheless, I do have falling and running dreams (always running too slow). lisacnghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08404184287815243972noreply@blogger.com
