Is it normal to want to tell everyone this dream?

I'm not telling you, but every time I encounter someone who seems to have insight I want to tell them about this vivid dream I had a few years ago about the end of the world, which I believe was some sort of vision. I have painted it, wrote about it, told all of my friends, showed a few teachers, researched and I still make references and connections to the dream and try to figure it out. I really believe there is something to it, even though it may just be a product of a combination of bananas, cheddar cheese and B6 supplements right before bed. Most people don't know what to say about it and that makes me feel weird. C'est normal?

  • Dreams can be very powerful. About a week ago I had a romantic dream about someone I knew and it's been on my mind ever since. You're normal, huzzah!

    But don't get too caught up in this. Dreams can be crushingly tragic and beautiful but in the end they're just dreams.

    The most vivid dream I've ever had was when I was nine. I went out of my front door and saw nuclear missiles racing across a bright red sky.

    However, I was getting heavily into science and was reading a lot about how things work and what atoms were. Plus, multilateral disarmament was a hot news topic. I don't think my dream was an omen, just a reflection of my conscious thoughts.

    I think dreams tell us more about our innter being and state of mind than any external reality or eventuallity, however profits are often scorned for their beliefs only to be proven right in the end. Just be sure you are right with God and have accepted his gift of forgiveness and then talk to people. That dream may or may not be telling you what you think, but the only way to truely understand is to contenplate and discuss. Open your heart to God. Let him work on you but never forget to keep an anchor in the rational and knowable. Seek a councelor too. I see one every week and he keeps me grounded.

    I'm intrigued. Have you been going through any personal transformations? Did you paint much before this experience or did it encourage you to change subject matter. Sounds pretty cool.

    You are looking to have the unexplained explained. What isn't normal about that? The dream itself? Maybe just a dream or maybe it is indeed a vision, but no, you're perfectly normal. : )

    I ate some cheese, right before bed, last night and promptly had dreams about zombies all night. But on a serious note, I'm very interested in this dream you had, although dreams about the end of the world are very, very common they don't necessarily mean bad things though :-)
