Dreams...Why?

So, has anyone reading this blog ever dreamt before? I know I have. Do you ever wonder why you dream or why everyone dreams in general? No one has figured out an actal reason yet, until now. My teacher had found this very interesting story about dreams. It told of someone who thinks he knows why we dream. He thinks we dream because it is a way of survival. "Dreams, he contends, are a training ground in which animals and people alike go over the behaviors that are key to their survival." So, when we dream, we dream about how to survive in the real world. So, if you have never dreamed, you wouldn't know what to do to survive. Like if you were in a fight. If you have never dreamed that you were in a fight before, you probably wouldn't know what to do if you were in a fight. Well I don't really know. That's just what I think the guy in this article is trying to say. If you would like to read this article/story, here's the site.

You can go there and look up the object you dreamt about. Too bad I have bad memory and can't remember my dreams. Bleh. I just gave my teacher the idea of making dreams journals! LOL I like the idea so I can actually write my dreams down and remember them. But I'm not gonna write down my secret dreams. Don't want those stalkers to find out about my secret dreams. Hehe.
