Dreams outside the cookie jar

I often dream and, even better, I often remember what I dream. Usually my dreams are so insane that I give a good laugh when I wake up. It seems that I pick the smallest details of my day, mix them well and make great plots of insanity. Today however, I had a very deep and beautiful dream. I don't know if dreams mean something or not. My scientific-oriented brain tells me they are not more than a mix of images captured or created in the brain, but who knows. 

There’s a bear fighting with my friend Telma. The bear is aggressive but it’s not hurting Telma. It is standing on the back paws, roaring and fighting with its arms and claws. As my dream progresses the bear takes the shape of a human being. First still big and aggressive but later on smaller. I observe the scene, at first unable to react, but then as its size decreases I get closer. Now, a lot of people bumps into the bear/human and he ends up in the floor being stepped on. I start shouting at people, telling them how rude they are for not even noticing they are stepping on a being. I help the bear/human up, all dirty, scared and insecure. He thanks me for defending him. Now, it has become a little boy. I stick with him, as I understand that he is fighting some inner fights within himself and he needs help. We go together on a train ride. Now and then, someone goes by and shouts at him. I defend him all the time, until slowly it stops happening. Slowly, he becomes bigger, more like a man, but not a giant. Definitely not aggressive either. When I’m sure he can take care of himself I say goodbye and we part ways. You are ready now, the world is yours, I tell him.

Dreams in the cookie jar #10

Samba!

When I'm worried/annoyed/irritated with something and I just don't want to think about it anymore I listen to (and if possible dance to) samba music. Samba is a very happy type of music and it never fails to make me feel better. Let's say I like "to samba" my problems away... 

Here is one of my favourite samba songs (it's about the discovery of Brasil in 1500).
Now, make some space in the living room, turn up the volume and samba away with me!

Dreams in the cookie jar #9

I dream of a world who belongs more to the people who do it better, and less to the people who brag about it better.

Laurie from La La Lane was the inspiration for this one! For her it is just a matter of time until this dream comes true.

Dreams in the cookie jar #3

Água de coco. Coconut water. Especially after a run in the heat. Or any run. It's the best feeling ever!

Ice cream maker (a good one, to make incredibly creamy ice cream at home).

Dreams in the cookie jar

I feel my 2015 had a lot of negativity and although I want to forget that, I also want to keep a small memory of those feelings in the back of my head as a reminder to myself that being positive is actually in my hands. I think a very good way to make ourselves happy is to dream! It might sound cliché but it does work. Whether I dream about that tropical beach, or of having a hot shower when I get home, or of eating the perfect cookie, all those thoughts make me feel better and happier. So I will start a new section on the blog to share some of my dreams with you. The big ones and the small. The reachable and the nearly impossible. It doesn't matter as long as we will all keep dreaming.

What do you dream about?
