Yours gave you joy and was prophetic. Without it you might have had a very depressing pregnancy which would have not been good for the baby either. How you got that prophetic dream, that is a question I don't try to answer.<br /><br />Once in awhile, and not often, I dream something that I find out eventually was very prophetic but generally I'd prefer they not be. It's kind of scary. Every prophetic dream I have had though has had a purpose to encourage me to do something or accept something I might not have otherwise-- like dreaming of someone I had yet to meet and the dream couldn't possibly have caused that meeting but it did prime me for it.<br /><br />Most of my dreams are just enjoyable, some explain feelings I cannot define during the daytime hours, very much like counseling, and can encourage me to think I am on the right track-- or not.<br /><br />I always dream in color and often very vivid ones. most of mine are a combination of daytime events mixed in with thoughts I might be having. <br /><br />After Sarah Palin announced her resignation as governor of Alaska, I dreamed about her that night and she was wearing an old bathrobe. I don't give that dream any meaning at all. It came out of daily events and I was just glad it wasn't Michael Jackson :)Rain Trueaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07994628226501093880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-342692190188505824.post-38400023947701130972009-07-04T08:02:54.219-07:002009-07-04T08:02:54.219-07:00*Cop Car - It's kind of like, "which came...*Cop Car - It's kind of like, "which came first the egg or the chicken?"<br />isn't it?Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18373134676852496647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-342692190188505824.post-20430341545129192822009-07-04T07:46:30.643-07:002009-07-04T07:46:30.643-07:00It seems right that we should be the authors of ou...It seems right that we should be the authors of our dreams. At least, I have found that the ones I remember reflect what's going on in my life. Most dreams, I do not remember.<br /><br />Glad your dream had such a positive influence on your life -or was it the other way around? Perhaps your mind had already changed and your dream was the result.<br />Cop CarAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-342692190188505824.post-58924455363655614472009-07-03T15:37:14.586-07:002009-07-03T15:37:14.586-07:00*Nancy - Sounds logical to me.

But we are still the authors of our dreams so when you hear something with your conscious mind it translates into a dream. And some dreams are just wishful thinking. <br /><br />*Vagabonde - I agree with your comment on health care reform. Greed rules and it isn't a new thing. Money and power motivate the movers and shakers.Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18373134676852496647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-342692190188505824.post-89969602774403306822009-07-03T14:04:38.264-07:002009-07-03T14:04:38.264-07:00Darlene I have been away and am catching-up.

It’s hard to know, for me, when dreams are prophetic, or when they were due to bad digestion! <br />I read your post on health care and really I believe the problem in this country is greed. As long as lobbyists will be authorized to play with the pockets of our officials, we won’t get much done for the good of the country. Greed has been here for a long time. I was just reading about Dickens’ trip to America and his impression was that people were only interested in money – and that was a long time ago. Greed is what caused the Fonzie schemes. How about corporate compensation? In the 90s the ratio of CEO compensation versus an average worker was 250 to 1 which meant that a boss earned on his first day of work what his worker did in a year (and now it is supposed to be more like 500 to 1). In European countries it’s more like 100 to 1. Even when a US company is failing, the workers get laid off but the CEO keeps the money. Isn’t that greed? Greed is the biggest problem in this country right now, so it will be a hard battle to get good health care for all.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-342692190188505824.post-21141522284412029062009-07-03T11:50:23.054-07:002009-07-03T11:50:23.054-07:00Darlene,

Sometimes in the morning I have a dream and when I wake up the same thing I am dreaming is on the radio. So, I suppose I am hearing the radio and I put that story in my dream.<br /><br />What do you think?Nancynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-342692190188505824.post-28266136456240548242009-07-03T11:37:30.090-07:002009-07-03T11:37:30.090-07:00*Betty - I have those kinds of dreams, too.

Your subconscious always processes in dreams what you are thinking about in the day time.
