Dream signals

Dreams are strange signals from our brains, sometimes so realistic that we feel like Alice in Wonderland. I have had such dreams which were so enjoyable I didn't want to wake up. If I did wake up, I wanted to go back to sleep and see how my dream would end. I used to think my dreams were just left over worries from the day, but they were much better and way more exciting than anything that happened during the day. I have dreamed of people from the past I have known or loved, and even some that were into the future. Some dreams are like a preview of a story I should write about, some have come true later in time, much like a prediction or message from my sleep mode. One such dream has stayed with me for many years, as the message was sad and did come true a few days later.

When my mother was in the hospital with cancer and dying, these images came to me in a dream.
My dream put me as the person in the hospital, and my mother and grandmother came to see me at the hospital. They both stood by my bed and told me
everything would be alright. They were wearing a beautiful pink flowing gown, and there was light all around them. I woke up crying, for it was so sad for me to
see them together, dressed in pink. I later realized why I had that dream. I remembered my grandmother had been buried in a pink dress.
When my mother was buried, she was wearing a silk flowing pink dress. I believe that my dream was letting me know that my mother would be with her
mother and they were both with God.

I've had dreams warning me of things that have happened later, and I feel that I have a sixth sense about the people around me. My oldest daughter also has
some of these same experiences, as did my mother. I think they are more than just a woman's intuition and it is God's way of sending us messages, maybe from
the ones we love and have lost.
