Last night I had an especially unusual dream. I thought it would be a good
opportunity to show how to analyze a dream. Let's recap the day's events. I had
a pretty uneventful day of school, had a riveting conversation about dogs with
my friend Joel, had a basketball game, and watched a documentary on a man who
had seizures at least once a day. Personally, I think seizures are probably the
scariest thing that can happen to a human being. Also, one thing you should
know is my basketball coach tends to be a bit on the cranky side. So I'm
dreaming, doing my sleeping thing and all of the sudden I'm in a basketball
game. In a timeout. The game is on the line. My coach, rather unhappy with what
I'm doing reaches over and touches my arm. The very second he touches my arm;
he drops to the floor and starts having a seizure. I wake up, almost too
terrified to open my eyes. The next day I was explaining my dream to my
friends. Because I am now an expert at analyzing dreams I believe that I know
what my dream meant. For one, my coach was simply there because he was a big
part of my day. The seizure part is what intrigues me. I don't believe that
just because I had watched a TV show about seizures that that's why I dreamed
he had been having a seizure. I remember that everyone in the gym seemed
unaffected by my coach seizing up. To me, this means that I was scared about disappointing
my coach, and I was afraid that I was going to let him down when it counted the
most. The seizure was probably a bit of an exaggeration, but it all makes sense
if you think about it. This just goes to show that what you dream about has a
direct correlation to your everyday wakening life.
