Sweet Dreams

When we go to sleep at night, we disconnect from the world, but we often connect to the person of our dreams. Dreams can be passed on, as in "I dream of a better life for you." Or  dreams can be part of our strongest desires, as in, "I dreamed that someday I will marry you."
Dreams can be inspirational, prophetic and for freedom, as in the pivotal "I Have A Dream" speech, by Dr. Martin Luther King.
   Sweet Dreams are different. Sweet Dreams are soothing, colorful ( they say blue is the most  relaxing color to paint your bedroom for a good night's sleep)) and full of possibilities. Dreams can be hypnotizing and magical. Your eyes are closed, but you can see visons of yourself with the one you love.  In a dream, the heart and the mind come together. No wonder some people prefer to live inside a dream.

The Land of Nod

  by Robert Louis Stevenson

From Breakfast on through all the day
At home among my friends I stay,
But every night I go abroad
Afar into the land of Nod.

All by myself I have to go,
With none to tell me what to do--
All alone beside the streams
And up the mountain-sides of dreams.

The strangest things are there for me,
Both things to eat and things to see,
And many frightening sights abroad
Till morning in the land of Nod.

Try as I like to find the way,
I never can get back by day,
Nor can remember plain and clear
The curious music that I hear.
