How can one describe visions in their eyes? No matter what you do, no single person in this world will ever be able to see through your eyes. There is a big reason why I bring this up. I spent the better half of the past two weeks being blind pretty much. I have horrible vision and use contacts. Got an eye infection and can't find any pairs of glasses that I own.

I had a lot of time to spend to myself and thus the reason why I am starting this thread. I had a great deal of time on my hands, so I started to remember the past. After remembering, my dreams have been a little funky.

1. Progression number 1 - this morning my dream went along the lines of this -> I was coming down the stairs of my house and I open the door. There in the front are two buddies from High School I have not seen in ages. Behind them is my first love. I was so excited to see the friends, but then they disappeared into thin air. Next scene my first love and I are in my bedroom, she is lying down and all of a sudden whispers "I still am thinking about you" and *poof* I wake up.

2. Regression number 2 - A week ago, not quite sure when it was -> Sitting in a car of unknown capabilities, I was hauling down a road course in Connecticut. But because I was not very confident behind the wheel, but still pushing the vehicle hard. Eventually I pushed it too hard and I go flying into a crowd where people's faces from my past came flying all around me. At this point though I was no longer in the car, I was sitting in a black room watching them fly by.

Now, this is where these eys differ. Everyone will take this differently and think differently. (One reason for loving this place) Are the dreams we have a sign of things going on around us? Are they to hint to us some message? Or are they merely a concept that we manifest in our minds that we wish was true?

My conception of life and the paths paved ->
There is eletricity everywhere, not just manufacture by humans, but in organic and inorganic matters. The electricity has magnetism. Every magnet has a North and South pole. A Sphere is defined as infinite points. The Earth is a sphere, It has a North and South pole, and it has electricity. (Now don't be an arse now by saying something like - "So you mean we all make a journey from the South to North pole!") - Electricity flows from negative or South to Positive North. In life there are only two points you and I are the same. That is at birth and at death. Birth is the south pole, likewise North is our death. The difference between me and you is this. . . We have infinite paths to choose along the line we pave through the sphere of life. no other time are we going to be the same and no other time are our paths going to run directly the same line at the same point. We will intersect a lot of lines on our own path, but each radian will be different leading us elsewhere. We may cross again or not, I am not one to foretell anything.

Tell me what you think about anything I said, or even start you own analysis on life, dreeams or memories. Feel free to project your mind or scrutinize me, but please no spam I will seek out those that despair and get this thread closed.
 
I believe there is a message in every dream we have. Like for example my mum had a dream about my brothers having there car accidents and guess what happened, they had an accident not long after, my mum even knew when my mate was going to die but we thought it was going to be my brother since they share the same name.

The best thing to do is buy a dream book to see if your dream/s had any meaning at all.
 
Man, I'm into philosophical thinking, but I don't have any kind of clue what you just said. That speaks to your initial statement of having different eyes, I suppose.

I don't give much thought to death, or the meaning of life, or anything that really matters, because I usually end up scaring myself to death. I just wonder about the universe and vague stuff like that - sometimes it helps to look at it mathematically, but taking a Physics class this year completely removed all sanity from that approach. You wouldn't believe some of the proposterous crap Physicists come up with.

I have dreams all the time, but I almost never remember them. The ones I do remember are usually stupid. Like once, I was getting married to this girl I saw on TV. I could draw a perfect picture of the room we were in, and where everybody was, and exactly what everything looked like. But I don't think that has any meaning behind it. Now I'm rambling, just so you know.

I dreamt I drove some really, really fast car sideways a couple nights ago (kind like a power-slide) and I smashed into this hill I was driving along (but facing almost directly) really hard. I don't know if I died or not, because I don't exactly remember. Then I downloaded this video of some guys drifting in Japan, at night, so it was a totally freelance thing.

They were driving in the exact place I saw myself. That was kind of odd, but again, no real meaning, I don't think.
 
Well, I have personally experienced dreams that come to pass eventually (one that I wasn't sure of it happening but it happened). Can dreams be a sign of things that are actally happening? I don't know. I'm assuming that they can be, because of what I've experienced in my religion. Now, the first dream I can say might be a representation of the way things actually are, why don't you talk to that girl and those guys from your high school, go to a high-school reunion or something like that and meet up with them. The second dream I got nothing. It sounds to me like a near-death experience resulting from a car crash. Maybe you should take the advice to use what you've got and be confident in it (not cocky, now, confident). That's all I got.

(BTW, your human polarity theory is interesting. Tests have shown that the topical application of magnets can help to stimulate your nerves to function better)
 
My mom says that she had a dream where she saw her deceased parents looking at something, with some look of recognition, and that she woke up and it was X:XX on her clock. Then the next day she finds out that my great aunt died at that time on that clock.

I don't know, it would pretty darn cool if that actually worked. Especially if we could figure out how.

You hit the Different eye thing perfectly.

I am not one to say, but Life truly is a scary thought. . . The meaning of life, you also got me there. I don't have the answers, but I do have thoughts, stipulations you may say. Your dream does catch my attention though, that is one of those freak or crazy occurences in life that bend and mold our lifes.

You pose an incredible question that we will never know Jpec, if I had the answer, I would tell all!

Unfortunately Jpec, I will probably never run into my first love again, although she is causing some complications in my mental state as of lately. (Moving out of place, finding old memories that made me smile). As for High School that reunion is coing up in 2007 so maybe it is prediction.

The Second dream, I am unsure of, but the similar thing is this between the two dreams, all the faces in them are people of my past, but specifically those three people that once were an intricate part of me.

Jpec, thank you for the compliment on my human polarity theory, I never had a name for it, but I think you just gave birth to it :D You actually struck the angle I was attacking that theory from due to the fact as humans we are electronically stimulated and operated. In fact, it only takes about .002 amps or 2 milliamps to kill someone. Now, with something that small in value could end everything for a soul, it makes you wonder how vunerable humans truly are. We are not gods, we do not own this world, we are not the top performers. . . etc. We are human, we make mistakes, we disregard danger, we hate, we love, we embrace. We have feelings, and philosphies. . . but each is a different property.

My regards to you and your mother for losing someone so dear Joey. Death is something that everyone faces at one point, and no word I can say will ever make it "better". The subject of death is a subject no one truly wants to talk about or think about. I lost my grandmother a little over a year ago and it was devastating. . .

As for working out the fundementals of dreams, I have had a few of them that did come true and others that didn't. but then again, I am only 24 and have a lifetime to live. To some organism, you might say I have generations to live. It is a basis of perception.
 
Your second dream happens to me alot. Im doing something then when im about to crash 1 of 2 things happens... either i wake up or i just start seeing what just happend from different peoples eyes.

Like i once had a dream i was skiing(im not telling the joke) but anyways i fell at the top of the hill and my friend was right behind me. Then all sudden i can see from my friends veiw of what happend. Then i jumped as i woke up.

Supposedly if your looking at a clock in your dreams something is supposed to happen at that time. If you die in your dreams your supposed to live a long life. If you dont die in your dreams you supposed to have a short life.

That is interesting, you just brought up a new subject which I was not even thinking of bringing up. Third person observation. I have had this happen to me a few times in life. Most of the time it was in the middle of hurting myself. The best example I can use was at Central Skatepark in Clermont, Florida. I go down a 12 foot roll in to a kicker that leads to a huge foam pit. I was working on my back flips at the time. My buddy Rodney was on the side of the pit at the time. I got upside down but without enough momentum to finish it off. I landed directly on my head. . . that split second I got a glimpse of watching my body come down as I felt it. The first thought out of my mind was I can't feel my feet. But in the end I was perfectly fine.
 
But i also drive perfectly if i stare at the ceiling of my car. I will make the corner where the intersections are. Stay on the right side of the road. stop for stop signs. but as soon as i close my eyes its just i cant do anything

I remember skiing at a church thing. One of my friends stuck his poles in to the ground and that night i just remember going down that hill sticking those poles down and *faceplant*

It almost makes you wonder if when you die you jst get reborn as someone else and you remember certain things that you have done or is it some sort of power that everyone has.


When you go to the nursing home. You see all them people on Oxygen takes with the tubes up their noses. Think about it and you kind of know what it is like.

reincarnation. . . Some believe, I will only know when I die.

Deja vu - Possible premise that reincarnation truly does exist. The illusion of having already experienced something actually being experienced for the first time. It is possible there is a part of our subconscious is dedicate to a former life. This is just a brief skeptic idea that entered my mind as I read this.
 
I'm really in to "Walk On" right now, probably because I just saw a concert tape of it. It'll fade - that song wasn't really any good.

I believe this is a sign that something might happen to your mates and your first love, it may be good or it may be bad(hopefully not) or u might even regane contact with them, if your still not incontact with them

I was actually talking to my life long friend last night about t5his, thus the thread's creation. That is a possibglity because I do not have any contact with any of them. I can't read into anything that far, but hopefully something good will come out of it.:D
 
I believe dreams are in many cases, for me, metaphorical representations of unconscious psychological (existential) changes. As time passes I change. Some changes are deliberate and consciously chosen. Others are inexorably unconscious, remaining to be discovered at some other time, often through dreams, sometimes through memories; these changes, too, are tacitly chosen. Consciousness of them is not required, but instead only assigns them permanent memory locations.

Your description involving poles and the two points at which were are the same has a lot of meat on it. I've grappled with that one before, but with a different angle.

The individual being is always seperate from all other beings. There is no state of being that can change this in a literal sense, but there are many ways humans ascend to some kind of dissolution in the world, or into another, in a metaphorical sense. Falling in love is one. The act of intercourse is the attempt to become one with another human, another being from which one is always relentlessly seperate, and I have wondered if the feeling, "love", is not really an expressed suffering over the one's seperateness from the beloved.

The natural imperative of the act of intercourse is to create another being. In this act a physical peice of each seperate lover is given over to a third being created from the two. They combine and become one in a literal sense; their love is expressed completely through a new life. The moment of conception is the only moment when two people literally become one.

Other ways have developed over the ages to achieve the state of dissolution into groups, the feeling of not being seperate form all other beings, but of being one with all other beings. The state is sometimes called "the transcendens". Contemporary religion is a pale caricature of this primal striving to overcome the loneliness of individuality. Drugs, music, trances and rythym, chanting... all of these things are employed individually or in various combinations to achieve states of oneness with Being, to see through other eyes. When the experience is over you always get you own eyes back, but you remember what you saw with those eyes of the seperate-from-you other. Something is permanently transferred, and we change in this way... or we used to. It's really not encouraged anymore.

Lastly, the transcendent state can occur unexpectedly for those who are open to it, which is also to say those who have eyes for it, or ears for it. It can be brought about in nature, or over some event like September the Eleventh. Yes, even violence can bring it about; transcendence does not have to be pleasant, and my pleasure is the least of it's concerns.

Some will never know it. And that's fine. They're easy to pick out and stay away from. I wonder if humanity may not actually be, or be headed toward being, a number of subspecies, less related than one might think.

Did you know that NBC played "Walk On" at the end of the Winston Cup?

Meh. Even within its album, there's better songs - "Wild Honey," "Peace on Earth," "When I Look at the World," "Kite," "Beautiful Day," "Stuck in a Moment," and "In a Little While" are all better. The only thing that made "Walk On" at all good was the "all that you..." statements at the end. Other than that, pure suck - even Edge wasn't as good on that as he was on "Beautiful Day," though, to be fair, I think "Beautiful Day" is one of the best songs, muscially, they've ever done.
 
So much Inputs miata, so much alcohol, Tomorrow so much sleep will passed this interesting issue to a priorited level. I speak Blahblah

Good one Miata. I'll deal with it tomorrow.
 
i know this isn't really contributing to the thread, but for some odd reason I can never seem to remember my dreams. I've never been able to.

good, I was looking foward to this being a bigger thread. I am interested about you views too :D
 
I believe dreams have something to tell us, at least reoccuring dreams and dreams that moves you deeply. Some dreams are just noise. I've been monitoring and interpreting my dreams for many years and I see them like the dashboard of your car. You can get a lot of information on the vehicles (your) status but not everything.

Interpreting someone elses dream is not that easy though. I discuss dreams with my friends from time to time and I believe some elements are somewhat universal. Knowing the person is also very important to get the right context. I.e. if you dream something about your mother, is it the relation to your mother or something inside yourself that "mother" in the dream represents?

Another important angle is how you emotionally relate to objects and to the plot in the dream.

My interpretation:
The house represents you as you in your life right now. The reminisce you do shows as you step outside and meet high school friends.

Feelings of excitement - you enjoy the reminisce.

They dissappear and you are with your first love in your bedroom - you exctract what is important and worth to keep from your past memories.

She says "I'm still thinking about you" - is a confirmation of what i just typed, that the memories that are important to you gets integrated in your conciousness (bedroom, she's inside your house). You want those memories and those memories want you.

I have questions. What did you feel for your first love in the first meeting and later in your bedroom? (in the dream of course)

At this point though I was no longer in the car, I was sitting in a black room watching them fly by.

My interpretation:
The car of unknown capabilities - You are not aware of your own (the car) capabilities.

Not confident behind the wheel - In your actions right now (the reminisce?)you lack trust in yourself.

Pushing the vehicle hard - You push yourself hard.

You push the vehicle too hard and you fly into the crowd with peoples faces from your past - sort of a warning, you push this reminisce too hard that makes you offtrack in some way. Mabye you should concentrate more on your present life? Life's all about balance (imo).

You are no longer in the car, sitting in a black room watching them - In some way you distance yourself from this overwhelming excperience. The black room symbols that you feel sadness or loss. Either over that the reminisce is over or that your memories are just memories and will never come back.

Questions: Did you have any feelings for the car except the unconfidence in it's capabilities. What did you feel when you pushed the car hard? What did you feel when you flew into the crowd? What did you feel in the black room?

Thoughts about this Miata?

Now i'll do some "Sly Racoon" for the PS2, just got it today.

I set my alarm for 4:00 AM this morning so I could study before work. I fell back to sleep and got no studying done. While I slept I dreamed I was sweeping the floor at a Jack-In-The-Box.

Cleaning means that you are tidying areas within you. Remove the dirt (unimportant things).

That is comforting. I distinctly remember trying to dislodge little pieces of debris caught in the grout between the reddish-brown tiles. Must be some stubborn little superfuosities.

Is that a word? Superfuosities? I like it.

*Edit*

I also remember that I was near the back of the kitchen, and instead of there being a wall or a back door there was an empty space under construction. There was plastic sheeting draped over windows, unused equipment pushed off to the side, a layer of gritty dust on everything. I was sweeping in the imaginary space between the fast-food kitchen and the new, unused, still-under-construction space.

Thanks GTG. You've given me a new angle. I was looking at it literally, i.e. if I fail at school I'll end up working in a fast food place. Which seemed odd because I'd have to go backward many in life years to achieve that.

First meeting - in the dream I felt uncertainity and being uncomfortable. Kinda like that little heart beat skip when you meet someone that is special. In the bedroom I felt total composure and confidence. She was laid down and I was standing over her brushing her hair.

As for the car, I think it symbolized my life at that point more then my car. . . I felt like a runaway train in it to tell the truth. It went a lot hand in hand with what was going on in my life at that point. As for the crowd I felt failure for the fact I crashed and burned, almost like a burdon on my shoulder. As for the black room, I felt nothing, no emotion, not even a thought, just visions.

Oh milefile.. Your posts (if I want to properly understand them) makes me use the dictionary more than once;)

That's just confirmation, you clean and you clean very careful (when you clean the grouts) in your own belief (which we all have)(the floor you walk and work on - tiles)

btw wtf is superfuostities/superfuosity, some homemade word? I didn't find it in my dictionary.

[edit] mile and miata, I'll continue this tomorrow now I gotta go to sleep..
