Dreams: facts, fears or fantasies?......or future hopes and goals

Post date: Oct 12, 2018 1:57:53 PM

Dreams come to us at night in our sleep, sometimes we remember them sometimes we can't, sometimes when we wake we think they're a premonition about the future or a message from the past....

We also construct dreams while we're awake, they help us imagine a future we think will make us happy....

Discuss

- Do you think dreams come true? Is that always a good thing?

Dreams while sleeping:

- What do you dream about?
- In your dreams do you:
  - Wear glasses?
  - Look the same as you do when awake?
  - See colours or black and white?
  - Go to places you've never been in real life?
- Do you have bad dreams, nightmares?
  - What are they about?
  - What makes them bad?
  - How do they end?

Dreams of the future

- What are your dreams?
- Who do you talk to about your dreams?
- How do you feel when a dream comes true?
- How do you feel when you realise your dream will not come true?

After thought:

- In the song “Dreams” by the Cranberries the singer Delores O'Riordan describes the sensation of meeting and falling in love, its a song that helped me a lot...
- Her dreams of becoming a famous musician and falling in love came true. Yet sadly she passed away due to overuse of alcohol, the legal drug many use to escape from reality and dreams.
