Dreams

I don't know if we can discuss dreams here but I have a recurring them come up.  These dreams are about a girl went to high school with for a couple years.  I wanted to be friends with her but she rejected me.  On top of the rejection, she and her friends were really mean to me.


In a couple of the dreams, we met as adults and become friends.  Last night the dream was about us as adults and we get in an argument about how she treated me.


Why would I be dreaming about her when I haven't had any contact with her since I was 16?

No one but ourselves has the power to do so, or the permission to do so, but ourselves.So live life with your faith and...
