Dreams are successions of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations that occur involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep.

The scientific study of dreams is called oneirology.
These are the dreams that occur “physiologically”. There is another kind of “dream”.

When we have a dream, we have the capacity to make it a reality. We have the tools and the instructions to make it real. No more dream but a factual reality, an achievement, a goal reached.
The power is within us. Dig deep, put forth the best effort.
It Is What It Is
