Gosh, strong dreams Vel.

There are some really interesting dreams here.

My husband dreams of our daughter and he says it's like it's real, like he's been with her and he's really comforted by it.  I've never had a single, solitary dream of her... I'm still waiting.  I get phone calls from my family members all the time to say they've had dreams of her.

I think she sends me a song though, My Girl.  I used sing it to her and she'd sing "I've got the mumph of May", it was never month.  Anyway, on her anniversary last September I was making her a silly floral arrangement which consisted lots of long pink gerberas and purple feathers.  It would have made her nose wrinkle for sure, I said to her "I hope that's funny enough for you" and the song came on that instant.  The next day on her anniversary, I told my sister this and we drove the florist to pick up our posies for her, we walked into the shop and My Girl was on the radio.  Coincidence maybe, this happens ALL the time.

I think there's a reason I don't dream about her, I haven't figured it out yet, but she's on my mind all day long - how can I NOT dream of her?

Maybe she thinks you will try to rationalise a dream.  as just that.  So her way of letting you know she is around is  through the song something that isnt so easy to shrug off .  SS79 x

I sure hope so .  Maybe it will come when you need it most

I dream about people that are gone often.  Sometimes I wake up feeling it was just a dream, sometimes I feel like it may have been something more, especially in the case of one of my Grandfathers.  I have lucid dreams and have often asked my Grandfather why he's in my dream.  He just gives me his charming smile and doesn't say a word.  He never talks in my dreams since he passed.

Yes they DO!! I have had the experience after I lost my Mom and it IS reassuring that that are alright!
I believe this happens because your brain, though still active, is more "open" so to speak and this is how loved ones can communicate without scaring the crap out of you in other ways.
Thank you for posting this! Hope this will answer ALOT of people's questions about connecting!!

I sometimes have dreams with my late mom and dad in them.One time,momma and I were driving on Annaman Road near Boerne,Tx in my dream.
Well there is a low water crossing and it was full of water,so clear it was like glass. Well momma just drove right  through it.No the road actually dips down over this little stram and then up the hill.In my dream the water was even with the two high spots in the road,and we drove right from one side to the other,floating atop the water. Or Like my parents and brother and sister(both alive) and me all go for a family drive to some little town like we used to years ago. We just do things in my dreams like we did in life when they were here with us.

I had a dream a few months ago:  My mom (she passed away in 1992), and I where in a room with a lot of other people that I didn't know, it was like a party or something, her and I where talking but when I woke up I couldn't remember what we where talking about. She looked like she did in the 1970's, really pretty because that's when she really took pride in how she looked. I miss her very much and I miss my Grandma (she passed in 1993), but she hasn't been in any of my dreams. I really wish she would though!!!!

My father's been dead for a few years now.. and I've had ONE dream about him. He called me on the phone. I remember clearly his voice in my ear. I was so excited he called me.. He asked how we all were, and told me to take care of myself.. He called me by my nickname.. I remember when I hung up the phone in my dream.. I could still hear his voice clearly in my right ear long after I awoke..
I had almost forgotten what he sounded like... and I remember thinking how great and soothing it was to hear him again.

There have been a large number of accounts of people seeing recently deceased relatives in their dreams or visiting them from their bedsides at precisely the time of death, and during these encounters they often describe sensations of not being able to move like in sleep paralysis.

this is soooo true    recently i dreamed of my grandmother who passed away a year and three months ago. I suddenly woke up because i felt a presence in my room but when i closed my eyes again i can't move and felt a hug behind me. It was my grandmother asking me how are things with me... everything felt so real.. i can't even recognize if i was just dreaming or those things are really happening in front of me. But her voice seemed real.. i can't remember everything we talked about but i am sure that she's happy. she was wearing a pink blouse but i can't see her face that clearly. One thing was weird tho, i asked her why he didn't bring grandpa with him so i could see him too, she said, "Oh your grandpa can't be with us. He was reborn" what does she mean by it?

That would add value to the theory of reincarnation

I definitely agree with that. From my experience real communication actually feels different than merely dreaming about the person. I think most of the time people are merely dreaming. You'll damn well know if it's actual communication, but that's just my opinion.

Well I found out someting interesting though. His wife would hear him call her name...and she swore that when she would sit on the sofa that he was there sitting with her. She would smell his cologne that he used too wear. My ex and I thought that she was doing that because she was used too him being there. That her mind was playing tricks on her. Well after the last dream I had of him....me signing...and of him floating toward the light, she said that she had no experiances. I really think I helped him move on....that he reached me through my dreams, because he needed my help. The song I was singing I can still remember......Eyes with no more tears to cry....turning heavenward toward the light......cry in the name of Jesus.....help me see the light of one more day. He just could not pass on, not without his wife of 52 years. He didn't want to leave her alone. I think that is why in the first dream he would not get in the car....he just kept walking and crying. It was a sign that he was not ready. (((Regency)))) I beleive she will come into your dreams some day. I think that spirits come into your dreams when you are so relaxed before you go to bed...and you don't have so much on your mind. So your mind is open to all kinds of things and possibilites, like pyshcics do. They even do exercises to help them open up. Thats how I think spirits come into your dreams. It's not that your daughter won't visit, she hasn't had the chance too.This might sound weird too you but I think I can help you with a little advice. When you get the chance one night before you go to bed....right down everything that is on your mind, crumble it up and throw it away. After you through it away laydown and relax. If you can get yourself in a Hypnotic state....which is almost asleep, but still awake.....that is how Lucid Dreams can form, where you can control your DREAMS!! Pratice that and see if she comes through in your dream. I can get that way with meditation, but you should try REM (Rapid Eye Movement), it is more effective. Do this when you are laying down relaxed, with your eyes closed move your eyes around a little side by side. You will actually feel yourself going into the Hypnotic State....dont freak out though....go with the flow or you will wake yourself up...lol. you will start seeing flashes of people, or places. Then you go into your dream, with an open mind. If you are luckey it would be a Lucid Dream! When I had those dreams I was not having a Lucid Dream, but I was totally relaxed and open minded. Here is an experiance from another thread when I had a warning come through! (Sightings, reports, and experiances.)

I remember one night, when I was alone, I had a strange dream. I was kinda nervous to be alone anyways because I never go to sleep in an empty house. So I just basically stayed in my bedroom. Finally I drifted off to sleep and had a dream that my phone rang. When I answered it, it was a man on the other end that said secure your home. I was like huh? Then the man on the other end hung up. Then I woke up. I was thinking to myself what a weird dream. Then I remembered HOLY CRAP I did not lock the windows or doors. So I locked everything up...read my novel and feel asleep. 2 hours later a policeman knocked on my door and said that my neighbor was robbed and taken to the hospital. He was 72 years old!! Man that freaked me out. The cop asked me if I had heard anything. I just looked at him like uuuhhhhhhhhhh...lol. He saw the shocked look on my face then said," make sure you keep your home secured."

Yikes V thats freaky but cool at the same time . I often wonder if its  some inherant sense that we all have . Like a deep intuition as there are lots who have the same as this . i've had it myself where i'll just be dozing off and suddenly i'll start to dream that one of my kids falls from a window and jump up shocked . but it makes me go around checking windows . and i have often found that one of the kids has left one unlocked which is totally forbidden in my house due to inquisitve toddlers  . wierd  .

Glad you were safe  and hope your neighbour was okay after the robbery it can be a  very traumatic experience .

Thanks for sharing .


EDIT : numerous typos . its early and i'm tired LOL
