Dreams and Sleep

D
reams and sleep, sleep and dreams. Do we really know which comes first? We welcome sleep and hope to dream or we welcome the dream and hope to sleep. Either way dreams and sleep seem to go hand in hand. Sleep and Dreams, dreams and sleep.

Dreams. Are we always dreaming? There are day dreams, you know those types of dreams don't you. Day dreams are the ones were we are wistfully thinking of another place, time, person or even perhaps reality. There is no sleep during day dreams. Maybe there is sleep during a day dream, maybe we are just sleeping with our eyes wide open. Dreams.

Dreams and sleep. Where would we be without either one? We must dream for without dreams there would be nothing to reach for would there. As children we dream of what we want to be when we grow up whether it is a doctor, lawyer, fireman, policeman, author or poet. But once we grow we tend to lose site of those dreams we had as a child and those of us who still dream are said to be lost in a different reality or possibly crazy. There are those of us who like to think that we who dream are normal and everyone else is crazy. We need dreams to remain sane. Sleep and dreams, dreams and sleep.
