May your dreams become lighter and happier. May you be the joyful presence in the dreams of another.

The darkness finds us all at times, some more than others.

I seem to have these kind of dreams when I'm feeling guilty about something. Perhaps I should try to be a better person. Hugs.

Don't fret, John. I'm pretty sure we all have this kind of dark night visit some time or another. Thanks for reading this one.

I think we've all experienced those creepy dreams over time, are we actually seeing our dark side? ,Tom

Not consciously, but we have no control over our subconscious thoughts while dreaming. Scary, huh? Thanks, Tom.
