Nightmares

Your mind drifts as you fall asleep, but sometimes it drifts too far. Sometimes we slip into our deep dark fears and insecurities, and we see a life lived within them. We call them nightmares and write them off as pure imagination, but what if this isn’t the case. What if these nightmares are lives we are damned to live if we continued down a certain path? What if these nightmares are obscure concepts derived from our recent wrong doings as punishment? What if we have been looking at this all wrong and missing out on details of lessons and paths to redemption for our wrongdoings because they are just “silly little dreams” that we forget about because they hold no chance of growth and light? But I’m sure this is not the case and they are all just dreams. Right?
