I often wonder why we dream.
Last night I had this strange dream and was feeling quite disturbed because I couldn’t add up numbers.
The dream seemed to have me in a place where I was selling things. Someone wanted to buy a pack of baby food and sweets
Baby Food = $2.99 Sweets = 1.99 . I kept the customer waiting because I couldn’t give the total amount of the goods. I was trying to use a calculator on a mobile phone and no matter what I did I couldn’t get it to work. End of Dream.
When I woke up this morning the total amount flashed in my mind $4.98.
This would be my sort of dream and I would be so relieved to wake up and not have to worry about the calculator or the customer! And you knew the answer all along but hd to be awake to know that.

The weird thing is I haven’t worked in a shop for 51 years. I have been retired my career of nursing since 2012.

I think our dreams play on old memories or old worries and insecurities. At least mine seem to.

I think you are right there Anne. Maths was never my strong subject, I struggled but always managed to get by and get through what I had to do.

I don’t mind weird dreams as long as they are not frightening .

The human brain is a mysterious little ball of gray matter. After all these years, researchers are still baffled by many aspects of how and why it operates like it does. Scientists have been performing sleep and dream studies for decades now, and we still aren’t 100 percent sure about the function of sleep, or exactly how and why we dream. We do know that our dream cycle is typically most abundant and best remembered during the REM stage of sleep. It’s also pretty commonly accepted among the scientific community that we all dream, though the frequency in which dreams are remembered varies from person to person.
