I know what I believe a dream is and will share that with anyone who can offer me a different perspective. I also would like to explore the source of dreams since I have a very definite opinion of that as well..
Example: Isaac Asimov said that dreams are nothing more than sweeping out the trash from the day's activities. I heartily disagree with such a simple answer to this complex part of a human's mind, but I do agree with his saying dreams come from the subconscious mind. However I must disagree with the term "subconscious mind" as I limit my source to the subconscious. Mind is conscious and subconscious is not mind. This is my opinion and it may be shared by some, but I would like to hear other perspectives.
