Dreams - are they telling us something?

[rayna340]

Have a dream?nightmare? all the time and it goes like this. It's night. I'm running through back gardens and jumping hedges and I'm being followed by a very small person approx. 36" tall. I think its a man but to be honest I don't really know. He is completely white, almost etheral and featureless. I run and jump and so does he but he does not catch me. I don't want him to catch me but again I don't know why. Should I stop and turn around or keep on running?

I do this. I love it! I love to go back to the dreams...and control (to some extent) how they end. Although I have heard it is impossible to do this...I have. Or maybe that was all just a dream?

now that is interesting, Jives. You can keep your dreams going for days? When I find a good one...I'm going to have to write it down and try that!

i feel like people are looking at me with no clothes on? i keep covering myself only to become uncovered again? i also in the past have dreamed my husband being unfaithfull and waking up very mad at him, like it just happened, who he was with i don't remember, he has the same dreams of me. He will wake up and say, boy you were a bad girl last night, and then say i was with some gross guy?

Every night before my birthday I have this dream that there are creatures outside my window (they look like the creatures out of Jackson's Thriller video) and they are chanting "you will never live to see your next birthday!" ewww....freaks me out every time. I need to take control of that dream and blast them all with a big gun!

Thanks jives I'll try that tonight. Still not sure what to give myself though. You had gangsters after you so a weapon would have made sense. Perhaps a hedge cutter would be best! Let you know in the morning how I got on

No! not hedge cutters. If the guy that is chasing you is that small, just turn around and drop kick the little punk!

I would keep running...good exercise.

I always had the same dream....

I was driving in my red mustang that I had in high school.. There were 2 little girls in my car- in car seats..I went over a creek and suddenly was washed away..Under the water the girls were crying to me..I was trying to unbuckel their car seats and couldn't...Finally I went up for air and then back down again and kept trying - then I had to give up.....I had this dream for years....and when my first 2 children (both girls) were born - just 18 months apart - they were both of course in car seats.. I was driving a red Ford LX at the time..and when ever it would rain I wouldn't go ANYWHERE with the kids alone.. I never did ever figure out -and now I don't have it anymore...

Since you've tried running I would next try turning around. Of course you have to lucid dream to make that decision.

Is he a garden gnome? Sounds like it. They're not very scary. Mind you I've never been chased by one.
