Do you believe in dreams??? I do

I have been a strong follower of dreams & why not? Every one of us love to dream. Don't we? What is so special about dreams to write a blog and that too as my first blog?

From my childhood, whenever I had problems I had troubled sleep. Dreams flow all across my mind & suddenly I find a solution to the problem in my dream. Do you call it as sub conscious mind activity, so be it. But that is dream, isn’t it?

To quote few examples…
I play chess with my grandfather in early childhood (until I was probably 12) & later a friend of mine (elangathir for those who know me). There would be a equal percentage of win and loss both sides. But sometimes, it will be me who lose all the games. I play again and again only to extend my losing streak. Finally after those troubled games, when I sleep I dream of play chess with the same opponent by which not only, I get to analyze my mistakes but also newer strategies with which I go on the winning streak the next day. I stop my streak, so that I neutralize & do not play any further as I did not wanted the opponent to feel bad as they are my close friends & relatives. I never wanted to kill them. After this I stop playing for a couple of days & on starting Chess again, we end in equal wins & losses.

It never stopped with Chess at least for me. It continued in my studies, if I do not understand something…I struggle hard to understand it & end up in a troubled sleep, next day I become good on that subject.

Recently, I tried the same strategy on learning to drive a car. Believe me or not, in 3 hours, I analyzed my misses & I can say now I know to drive. May be with another dream, I am sure I will be a good driver.

Will continue my experiences when I have time
