Dreams

It’s a tricky word with multiple meanings, different interpretations made out of different perceptions. The meaning of this word varies from person to person. For some it’s a routine uncontrollable rambling your mind goes through while you are asleep, for some it’s a deliberate thinking towards what they want to achieve in their life, for some its just a figment of imagination they love to get lost into once in a while, and for some it’s a forbidden fruit they know they will never achieve, still lust after. But mostly the dreams are the involuntary rambling of subconscious that goes on when you are sleeping. There are nightmares, there are happy dreams many even experience wet dreams, but they seldom make sense when you get up. The stories in these dreams are frequently surreal and impossible in perfect physical world, they sometimes involve people we know but never entirely make sense, we feel surges of real emotions while going through this subconscious experience but its not a bit realistic in its characteristics, yet we choose to call something well thought of, a life goal , as a dream?
Coming to the well thought dreams, most people have one of their own. As small as owning some small object to as big as owning the world! its all that your imagination can fetch! The desire that drives a person to achieve or at least try to achieve the life goal he has set. Many others may not have the life goal but they still dream whenever their heart desires. Remember the countless time we spend lolling around on a couch thinking about how I wish I was Richi-Rich or Barak Obama or a pop star! Dreaming is a great escape we seek from the mundane lives we live, a power to achieve everything inside our minds which vanishes the moment we hit the reality. But for a moment we live what we wish we would have lived , what we deeply believe we deserve. And yet we look at other people and say, ‘he is living my dream’ when you could easily just close your eyes and live his life inside your mind for a moment and just let it vanish with a snap of fingers! but we are seldom content with that..

Strange strange world..
