Have you ever wondered why and how you would get those wonderful dreams while you are asleep? Quite often you won’t even realize that you had a dream few hours back while you were trying to give rest to your mind and body. But the poor brain has some work to do even in sleep and fight the emotions within you even at its rest time :)
Dreams are good. It’s a form of virtual entertainment while you are busy sleeping and important thing is what you see in the dream will not be out of your choice. Dreams are like imaginary motion picture of your frustrations or your feel good factor situations.
Dreams are tricky and confusing. It changes the direction and situations dynamically that you keep wondering whether you are playing a part in the dream or you are just watching some sort of non sense movie with characters being a combination of movie stars and your friends or family members :). The events just jump from one situation to another and it would never reach a logical conclusion.
Dreams are always in bits and pieces of your likes and dislikes. Rarely would you be able to recollect any dreams completely however good your memory is. Sometimes the dreams would be so scary or saddening that you wake up worried and sometimes you wake up with a nice feeling as a result of some beautiful incidents in the dream but at the same time you won’t be remembering exactly what was just dreamt.
From my early childhood days I always have this belief that if I saw a dream then that would never come true in my life. Many of you would also agree with me on this. According to me, dreams are just results of what you want or like and what you really don’t want or hate, no matter how significant it might be. It might be a small incident in your office which you wished would have happened the other way around and you see that happening exactly in your dream and then you may wonder why the hell did I dream this part as you may think that you have forgotten the incident long back but the real thing is somewhere in your mind it was still wandering around like some small unnoticed dust particles in the storm.
Most of the time I dream about is that I have an exam to be given the next day in school or college and I’ll be getting tensed very much during the whole period of my dream and I would be going through the same feelings which I was facing in my earlier days when I was studying in my school and college days. When I wake up, I give out a sigh of relief that it was just another dream and I actually don’t have to appear for my exam today :). May be I was under great amount of stress during my school and college days that even today I dream about those horrible moments again and again :)
As long as you have worries in your life, dreams are always going to haunt you and as long as you have happiness in your life, dreams are always going to delight you. I guess a combination of both good and bad incidents are essential so that when you are in deep sleep surprises of all sorts can visit you in the form of dream. So I keep wondering more on this God’s gift of dream and what you could do is just speculate what you would dream today. May be you would just dream that you are trying hard to understand whether you are now in a dream itself or not :)

My Incomplete Story
Welcoming myself to the world of Bloggers today......I will begin my blog with some memories of the days when I tried to write up a story of my own..which still remains incomplete and lost like my heart in some dairy at my home in Bangalore.
I do remember the days when I was very much eager to build few characters engrossed in some interesting activities to form a story. Thanks to some novels and story books brought by my brother during my engineering college days, I always wished I could write a story and my first attempt was in my final year of engineering (I think it was the end of my 8th semester in mid 2005) that I could start a story which revolved around my real friends enjoying a trip to Goa. I was just in the intro phase with the characters built and the story begun and unfortunately I lost interest in moving these characters in a logical sense. I gave up then as I thought I was not yet prepared for this. I bet no one would be able to find the book where I had scribbled my first failed attempt.
After 3 years i.e. 2008, the year which I would consider one of the most amazing and unforgettable year of my entire life till now, I began reading more books when I used to travel between office and my sweet home in office cab in Bangalore. Not surprisingly I was eager for the second time to come up with a story again.
This time I was cautious not to be in a hurry and I began thinking of the plot for the story and did several researches on the internet on how to complete the plot and eventually the story successfully. After a few days I had a visibility of the plot though still I was not clear on how to bring it to an end.
I once again began inventing the characters and pulled them into some sort of situation. I was in a good flow where in I had the confidence that I’ am better this time as I was able to move around the characters with some strong feelings in them. I used to write in my office spare time and after I reached home, I would collate and write them up in a dairy. The story was about a normal boy who tries to remember his old friend who was totally different from other boys that he knew. He tries to think hard why a genius (i.e. his old friend) chose a simple and not so brilliant kid like him to be his only friend.
Although the story did move along boringly at a very slow pace, I was happy that I was doing something different and I thought that I would ask my brother to read once I’ am done with this piece of work of mine. But I never imagined that this would be my second failed attempt to complete a story as one day I was told by my then manager that it was my turn for the lucrative onsite opportunity and I will have to fly to UK within a month. I was not prepared for this change as I was very comfortable in my own small world and with some hiccups I did accept the offer and the story lost its way and I lost my interest once again.
Now you would wonder why all of a sudden am writing all this stuff in the blog. Well, if you could observe here, both times I got the inspiration to write a story whenever I did some serious reading of books. So once again I was inspired to blog now after reading a few blogs in the past few days.
I wonder this blog is also incomplete similar to my two incomplete stories. Sometimes it’s good that stories are not complete since it gives you opportunity to mould the stories to a new beginning or to begin afresh and it creates space to think more and think differently.
And who knows I might be lucky in my third attempt and I would complete a story someday. Till then I will accept by incompleteness and post some more blogs. What you guys say huh!!...shall I continue to blog till then?
