Dreams

Introduction

I thought I would put my dreams down somewhere so I could look at them later. Then, I got the bright idea of torturing the rest of the net with them. Actually, I think dreams are extremely interesting. I do not think dreaming about certain people or actions are especially telling, dreams are our subconscious 'speaking messages', nor necessarily mean anything at all; however, I do believe that we can learn about ourselves from our dreams. I encourage everyone to post, or at least keep a personal record, of dreams. If you have a site of your dreams that you would like to share, please let me know. By the way, I put no credit into a Freudian interpretation of dream sequences - i.e. I do not believe that books represent female genitalia. Neither do I believe that suggestive or violent dreams are any indicators about real life. I think they are simply modes of expression of our inner selves, but, in my humble opinion, they do not necessarily accurately reflect reality or conscious thought or tendencies. In short, because I have messed-up dreams, do not e-mail me "you're messed up". Warning! Some dreams have content that you may not want to view. If you have any interpretation of what something means, I would love to hear it - contact me. Or you can go home.

New: I have started to learn and love XSLT and XML, and it is very well-suited to represent these dreams in such a format. I will begin to backport my dreams into .XML files, and any real browser (such as Firefox) should be able to read them just fine as HTML. I bet you will not even know the difference.
