But sometimes we do not pay attention to our dreams, just like we do not really hear the meaning of words that pass through our ears. For example, it is possible to have several people in the same room with a television on. Even though they have ears to hear, there is no guarantee that everyone will hear what is said. If they pay attention and understand the meaning of the words and the images on the screen, then they are hearing. So it is with dreams.
Dreams can be rehearsals or telegrams . . .
There is always a reason for dreaming, but not all dreams are to be researched or acted upon. Dreams can deal with your concerns . . . My dad often dreams the solution to mechanical problems that his awake mind could not solve. Possibly the answer came in dreams because his awake mind was distracted by pressures and frustrations. Possibly his awake mind s library of known facts had incomplete or wrong conclusions.
