Dreams

My life seems to be largely guided by dreams atm.

For example it was a dream that inspired me to send off for the British college of journalism nvq course prospectus even though I don't even have enough mental energy to read it!

It also gave me the idea for my brothers birthday present. It's a coffee mug you can make proper coffee in. In my dream I thought a mug a rather dull present but when I woke up I realised, given his passion for coffee it wasn't such a bad idea after all! You can view it here, bought as ever off amazon

It is now beleived that dreams are your body connecting with the unconscious level of the mind but in the past many cultures have considered dreams messages from the gods. Egyptians even went to dream sanctuaries where they would sleep on special 'dream beds' in hope of getting messages. Not that I'm religious but I do believe there is something spritual and 'beyond the normal' about dreams
