Dreams and what they mean......

Found on Internet

Most of you reading this will probably be thinking to yourselves, "YES! She's going to go in depth and tell me what it means when I dream about being chased by a 10 foot tall dinosaur!"

Errr, sorry folks. If you're dreaming about that, you're on your own, as is anyone else who thinks I'm going to tell them anything about what their dreams mean. And I don't type that to be mean, honest. I can't do it for a couple of reasons. First and most important, I don't know! Second, I don't completely believe all that stuff about different images or actions in dreams meaning certain things. I know that there are A LOT of people that do believe and that's fine with me. To each their own I say.

Now, to contradict myself just a tad bit, I DO believe that dreams can warn us about stuff. My mom has had dreams of relatives being sick or injured. When she'd call to talk my grandmother or to talk to them to tell them to be careful if they were doing something, she'd find out that they had just found out they were sick or had been injured while doing the thing mom had dreamed about. We learned the hard way not to ignore that type of dream, and we'll leave it at that.
 
Me on the other hand, I've had plenty of dreams about getting married, having kids, my wedding, adopting kids, my wedding dress, kids; get the idea? To the point of actually knowing what the kids I'm adopting look like, what my wedding dress would look like, my grandfather was there for one of the wedding dreams (passed away a few years ago). But to no avail! I'm not married, no kids, nothing on the horizon that looks like either situation will change. Not complaining at all, just the facts ma'am (or sir!).


Which brings me to the whole reason for this lengthy bit of rambling.......I also believe that images and experiences from the day before can influence your dreams, and that was the case yesterday. I recently found out that a good friend has the possibility to adopt a baby within the next few months and a couple of friends and I were discussing it. One of the last images I saw last night was of another friends 7 month old baby boy and then I was reading a status about what some kittens were doing that a facebook friend had posted. All of this combined to make for one heck of a wild dream scape last night.

Remember friends, NO KIDS!!!!! In my dream, I was trying to wake up to get ready for work, but I had overslept and I still needed to feed the baby, (he was mine, where I got him from is anybodies guess) and he was still young enough to be breast fed. I was stressing out because I couldn't get ready for work plus feed him, because I was going to be extremely late. The next thing I know, my cute little human baby boy morphs into a cute kitten that I'm trying to breast feed..........this lovely scene replayed on a loop ALL NIGHT LONG!!! Go ahead, laugh, everybody else has.

On that note, good night! I didn't sleep well obviously with all that drama in my dreams last night! :D

Our Value

Hello Lasses.

Recently at work, I had an interesting conversation with a customer. And it made me think, how many of us as women (and even men) do not value ourselves enough to realize that we deserve better than what we are being offered by a person that claims they are interested in us? I can only go by my personal experiences, and they are few, but this latest one was a real humdinger of one. A male customer informed me that his girlfriend had left him. I say I'm sorry to hear that, expecting it to go no farther. He proceeds to ask me if I'm single and his final bit of absurdity was to ask me for my phone number, to which I replied, "I'm sorry, but no."

I'm sure there are many relationships which started out as a "rebound" relationship that have lasted and the couples are quite happy. Knowing about it ahead of time kind of changes things for me though, because his actions and demeanor put me on edge, as if he were hoping for some sympathy sex.....If I would have done it, it would have taken a piece of my soul afterwards, and that is too high of a price for me.

The sad part is, there is a woman or women out there that would give it to him. Even knowing it was a rebound thing. Why do they think so little of themselves that they think this is all they are worth? We as humans are worth so much more. We deserve love and laughter, trust and respect, relationships that build us up, not tear us down.

I'm not judging, that is not my place or purpose. Maybe it's my old fashioned values that make me think like this, and I'm okay with that, but I would simply like for you to put more value on yourselves so that you can be happy in your life!

And remember, you as a person are more valuable than gold, jewels or money!
