I had the strangest dream last night.
It got me wondering, why do we dream? How many dreams do we forget and what's the difference between a dream and a nightmare?
I dreamt that I had a pet dog. Now I do have a dog, but it wasn't this dog that featured in my dream. The dream dog was a mid sized brown mut. We had to burn him alive. For what reason, I can't remember. Were we going to ear him and he had to be cooked from live, like a lobster?
We sat him in the fireplace and built a fire round him. He didn't move, he just sat there. We lit the fire and he still just sat there with the flames leaping up round him. I couldn't understand why he didn't try to escape. All of a sudden, when he was well alight, he started to yowl. I didn't like that at all.
Now seeing as I'm an animal lover and would never cause any hurt to a dog, this kind of disturbed me. I don't know who the other person is in the 'we' either.
I asked Beth what she thought it signified and she said 'serious mental issues'.
