Dream Whispers

Every once in a while I have a dream that leaves me unsettled. Not necessarily a bad unsettled, but more a "WTF was that" unsettled. 90 percent of my dreams involve action packed scenes of adventure like being a secret agent or a super hero or protecting or killing someone (morbid I know but im a guy so sue me). These dreams leave me wishing they could come true, that maybe someday ill fight a crazy guy in a Dragonball Z fashion, or will be jumping from rooftop to rooftop chasing down an attempted assassin, or will learn how to control my chakra.....anyway, those dreams are awesome and completely welcome.

Then ill have one of the dreams I had last night. As the content of the dream is of a somewhat personal matter ill leave the details out, but needless to say upon waking up a quiet WTF left my lips. Why do our dreams have a habit of reminding us of things that need to stay buried. Why do they put little ideas in our heads of what was or could be. I know I know, subconscious and all that nonsense but there are sometimes when I just want to say "hey subconscious, go jump off a cliff or something." That little whisper of possibility is all it takes to make you think about things you never would have thought about otherwise. To consider possibilities that shouldn't be considered. I listened to them once and it opened a can of worms for me so why, when I have a dream like I did, do I still consider them? Everyone has those dreams, its just a part of life but given the opportunity to choose the type of dream I'd have before going to sleep I definitely wouldn't choose this one.

To lighten the mood in my own head on the matter I picture a team of people plugging me into a little briefcase and diving 3 levels deep into my psyche manipulating my subconscious. I can only hope, were that the case, that the insanity that is my mind put up a decent defense. Based on the thoughts in my head right now, I dont think they did. Damn you Leonardo Dicaprio.
