My Dreams

[JamesBoag]

Im 13 and today i looked up on google bout these dreams ive been having for the past 3-4 years, none of my frieneds or family believe me when i talk about it and i found this forum. Anyways, i have dreams about things but i can't remember them till they actually happen like De Ja Vu, I don't know anything about it so i was wondering if someone could tell me about it, thanks

There is a slight contradiction in what you say. For example, if you cannot recall or remember dreams how then can you know anymore about them?

Jennings...

What I believe James is saying (though I may be wrong) is that as soon as something specific happens in his day, he flashes back to a dream that he did not remember until then, and at that point, he starts to remember his dream because the situation he is in or what he is seeing triggers the details of the dream because it is exactly how it was in his dream. Is that what you are saying James? If so....I have this experience often as well. Not sure what it is, but when it happens, it is like a flood of details comes at you all at once. Hope you find out why this happens. I certainly would also like to know. Sorry for the run on sentence in the beginning

I understood what James was implying but to fill-in the vacant spaces can be fraught with difficulties. I was attempting to get him to be a bit more specific not withstanding his youthfulness. If he could have provided an example it would have been helpful. I too have had similar experiences but the dream is not forgotten; it is simply not recalled until the event occurs then it floods into memory. James did say that he forgot his dreams so a paradox.

I recall having a dream in monocolour of the winner in horse racing and I dismissed it thinking that it was only my imagination but, silly me, the horse won. Its name was St Paddy and at the time I had thought, what a stupid name to call a horse but who was stupid; me or the horse?

Thank you for the explaination. I now understand what you were asking of James. Ummm...if you ever see the numbers for New York State MegaMillions...please let me know. I will buy the ticket and we will share Be well.

thanks guys and yeh thats what happens, I don't recall the dream until it happens and then i see the dream thats basically what happens :s I've been finding out more about it and i posted some other things in other forums, sorry i replied so late and thanks for replying :P, I appreciate it and also if you guys find anything bout this could u tell me please thanks again and an example, i think this was when i was in year for so about 4 years ago. I remember walking down tot he grass area at lunch to find my brother for some money for the canteen and saw some of his friends playing soccer and then saw a boy called Alvin kick and score a goal, then i looked to my right and saw my brother kneeling on the lying on the ground with the sharp end of a nail in his leg from running into a shoddy bench, i know its a weird kinda dream or what ever you would like to call it but i distinctly remember seeing that before and remembering the dream, i also have short and long ones in general for example walking around a shopping centre and then looking from the floor to my mum. its a weird feeling when i remember them and i think i can recall all the times this has happened to me as well and ill try to find more information :P.

Hello!
I'm Alice, and I'm 14. I would love to help, James, but I suppose I'm simply joining you in asking for it. I have been having prophetic dreams for about three years and the thing that bugs me is that if I have a prophetic dream, when I wake up, I usually remember it. But! Every time I tell someone about a dream...it doesn't come true, or a small part I missed out does. Murphy's Law I guess. Should I start a dream diary? I don't know. If I do, it seems like I'm trying to prove to someone that my dreams are prophetic. I don't mind if nobody believes me. It's like a private joke between me and myself when I get that overwhelming deja vu. Maybe there's a reason that people aren't supposed to believe us when we provide the "convenient" story that we flash back to the dream as/slightly before the event happens. Should I try to prove it?

[Jennings]

Alice (in Wonderland)? A nice name and an interesting point. People are very conservative and even if you were to prove that your dreams are prophetic they would still try to find justification that this could not happen and you would probably end by getting an unfortunate reputation. Keeping a dream journal can be a worthy exercise and to note those dreams when the event transpires. It is a valuable discipline not to confess too much to others, even your friends, as it is like killing the magic. Through keeping a journal you could measure the degree of your own accuracy and if it transpires that you have a reasonable degree of success then you may feel a little more confidant to share your gift but with only your closest of friends.

Thankyou Jennings
You are absolutely right. Killing the magic...thats the perfect way to look at it.
Haha yes, I have been called Alice in Wonderland before...but for different reasons
Thankyou so much for your wise words
Alice
