| On average, we spend about one third of our
lives sleeping. During a portion of that time, we are also
dreaming. While asleep, we can gain rest and refreshment for
our hard day of work. Essentially, dreams are our method of
relaxing and letting our minds drift away into a distant
world. While dreaming, we can interact with various people,
places or things.
Technically speaking, a dream is mass hallucination. A
dream is a hallucination that is also a fantastical journey in
our sleep that either relieves us of stress or tries to
detract us from a certain habit or future happening (better
known as a nightmare).
Dreams help us to understand ourselves giving that we know
how to interpret them. Interpreting dreams is a very powerful
tool. We can find out deep secrets or reveal concealed
feelings towards something just by analyzing a dream
correctly.
When we think about dreams we must wonder why they occur.
There are several explanations for this question. It is a fact
that we all must sleep. We constantly go through cycles of
sleep and wakefulness. During each cycle, our minds must be
active. Obviously when we are awake, we are using our minds
for various actions. When we are asleep, it is not as obvious
how our minds are at work. To keep our minds active during
sleep we must dream.
