Dreams

Sometimes you wake up and probably didn't dream anything, which is normal. Other times you wake up mesmerized by the dreams you've had in your head and you lay in your bed, scratch your head and think, why did that feel so real? This all goes hand in hand with the way your brain functions, most likely the things you overthink show up in dreams. Psychologists say everything that you sense comes from external input; the things that you see, smell, and hear. According to several articles it is said dreams don't serve a true purpose, but multiple theories have been made. The theory I find the most interesting and in my opinion, true, states "the dreamer is able to make connections between different thoughts and emotions in a safe environment." Reality makes us subdued to speak our minds or fight our fears. In our dreams we can and although some may be the kinds we don't exactly want, we all have the chance to wake up and realize the phrase your parents say after a nightmare 'it was all a dream".
