Dreams are Real

For someone who constantly dreams, most times remembers and other times does not remember the exact thing but has a feeling that she had a dream. I can attest to the fact that dreams are one of the hectic things humans have to face in their sleep world.

A few months after my dad's death, I constantly had dreams about graveside, coffins, and the rest, since I was quite young, I didn't understand what it meant and didn't tell anyone because I was young and ignorant about everything. Not until after his death that I started grasping more about what was happening to me and understanding in-depth about dreams and how they work for me. Even today, I still do remember a bit about the dreams I had surrounding my dad's death.

I remember when I was in Senior Secondary School Class Two, it was the period of our mock examination, this examination determined if one was to move to Class Three which was the final class in Secondary School, or repeat Class Two. A day before the day we were supposed to have our mathematics examination, I had a dream, about the examination questions and answers to each question. The dream felt real and I could still remember all that happened in my dream.

I was extremely scared since it was mathematics, not a good student at that it even became worse when I got admitted into this new school when I got to school that morning, I and a few of my close friends decided to go through most of the past questions we had with us and one of those past questions we went through had exactly the questions I saw in my dream, so I convinced them to let us try answering those questions even though most of them didn't want to because they felt it was too simple and I would not be in the examination question set for us as it was an external exam.

I was able to answer a few I could remember and understand their workings because of the dream I had, for the ones I couldn't, I called the attention of a Corper who was a mathematics teacher and he was glad to put us through those difficult questions and showed us how to understand them and remember them. When the Invigilator came and it was time for the examination, we got our question and answer booklet, and when the timer was set for us to start, everyone who was present when I convinced them to solve and answer the questions that morning was all surprised and started whispering about how it was the same questions I asked them to try to solve and get an answer.

Every question in that exam that morning was exactly what I dreamed about, every mathematical topic I dreamed and we treated that morning was exactly what we saw in our mathematics examination questions. When we were done writing and they asked me how I knew, I told them I guessed it, they all thanked me for saving them but only told one close friend about the dream I had that morning and she was shocked about it.

Dreams are real, dreams do come to pass, I have had several dreams and taken them lightly only to see them manifest, and then, I have a recap of the dream I had, I have had dreams, remembered them, and see them play out, I have also had dreams, woke up and couldn't remember them no matter how hard I try but immediately the incident happens, my subconscious or should I say my conscious begin to give me a clear picture of what I dreamed my dreams was or were about.

Among all, the only dreams I have to heart are dreams I constantly remember even after days or weeks of having them. I have learned to not only be conscious but scared about such dreams because they always one way or another manifest and their outcome always freaks me out. When I wake up without an idea about the dream I had, I don't always take it seriously but whenever I wake up from my sleep and constantly remember a particular dream I had, I am always serious and conscious about it.

I am not a religious person, I don't play religion, and I also understand that most dreams come as a result of our thoughts, regardless some dreams come to me and I am sure that they aren't just any dream, especially because of our consistent and our I constantly have them.
