I sometimes find dreams annoying, but sometimes I am so thankful of them. As an example of annoyance, I’ve had a few times where I have desired something greatly (like an item of something or someone, or even a super power lol, you get it) and in that dream, I had the thing. Then when I wake up, it is completely gone. Kinda funny yet annoying. Or if it’s a super power, I try to use it but nothing happens. In one dream there was a special island with a whole bunch of psychic people and I could control everything with telekinesis (DS I didn’t catch), but much to my suprise in reality I couldn’t.
Dreams have also done the opposite as well. In some dreams, I will lose something I care about (like my family, belongings, something of my health) or be in a situation that was uncomfortable (like being the only person in the world, going to jail) and then wake up to realize that it was only a dream and everything was the way it was yesterday. That feeling is nice because of the amount of comfort. One time, I dreamed about all my teeth falling out (yet again DS I should have but didn’t catch) and the second I woke up I felt around in my mouth with my tongue and it felt teeth.
I’m not like that. I never get disappointed when I find out it was a dream. I figure that I should be happy about all positive experiences. Even material things are only as good as the experience you have with them.
But the other hand, I’m pleased to find out that I was dreaming if I had an unpleasant one. At least relieved. Like when I laid petrified while a tiger walked around me, sniffing and such, preparing to eat me. I woke up and realized it was not real, ofcourse then, I found the experience to have been an interesting one.
I would have to disagree Dreams can be very dissapointing
I once had a dream where i could make anything appear with a click of my fingers, like a genie. I woke up, and i tried to make something appear, and i was very dissapointed.
Once I was really pissed off at my father in a dream. I woke up still pissed, and it took me a few minutes to realize it was a dream. The funny part is that we argued and at some point I even hit him with a bar stool o_o;
These happen a lot to me… Let’s see… There’s a really old story from when I was a kid. It wasn’t particularly disappointing or good, but it was fun. I dreamed there was a huge pit in the middle of my room. I woke up, and thought that was an old memory. My brother told me then that I must have dreamed it. Still, I wasn’t too sure
Last night, I had a dream that I was at school, and there was a girl there who had no friends, so I became friends with her. It was loads of fun, and in the dream I once thought that it could be a dream, then I decided that it wasn’t a dream (I didn’t even think of doing a reality check or anything). Then I woke up, and I thought, “darn, it was only a dream.” I was kind of disappointed then.
However, I used to have dreams where my family members or pets would die, then I’d wake up and be really relieved that they were still alive.
This morning I had a dream I found a $50 dollar bill and some $5’s, but then it disappeared. I was trying to look for it when my mom woke me up. So, I was disappointed because the money wasn’t real, but relieved that I didn’t actually lose money like that.
