Candle Comfort

This entry may sound a bit weird but I think that it is important to me and might be important to you. Now you have to know I'm not a goth, I don't think that magic is real and I'm not as weird as you may think that this sounds. But I think that candles can be a very comforting part of our lives. 

Don't get me wrong I'm not saying that I practice strange rituals and do voodoo or anything, but I believe that people have souls, and I'm not sure if there is a God for sure but I do believe that there is something out there, I believe that sometimes candles can be a good idea.

My grandad died a few years ago and it was really hard for me but the thing that I have worked out that makes it easier is that he is always with me and I am honestly sure of that fact. And every week starting a month ago I have began lighting a candle for him, I know that this doesn't change anything, I'm not trying to bring him back, but I do pray for his soul with that candle alight. You may think I am crazy and that doesn't bother me but I can happily say that it makes me feel better than just saying some words in prayer, this way I am showing a physical act of my love for him and it may sound freaky to you but to me this means something deeper.

I understand that some of you may not share my views but, please leave comments tell me what you think, I'd love to know about what you're thinking. I am not singling out any religions or putting them down in anyway either I am only voicing my opinions so you can think about others opinions. If you are reading this and someone has left a comment(s)  why don't you read them see what other people think, philosophy may not be your cup of tea but you might find it interesting.

They say that friendship never ends .....

They say that friendship never ends, I personally couldn't disagree with this statement more, I don't believe that friendship, no matter how much we would like it to be, can override everything. Friendship is so fragile, even the tiniest cracks can cause it to fall apart. I honestly believe that we give friendship too much credit, think it's worth more than it is. I know this because I know what it means for someone to drop you as if you never meant anything to them at all. 
It's not all bad, so people say. "There are friends everywhere, you just need to make them" that phrase means everything to some people but nothing to me. It is definitely true that there are friends everywhere but they're never there when you are, or you're never there when they are; either way it doesn't matter because whatever friendship truly is it's not everlasting.
Saying that I have friends that I have never once argued with and remained good friends from infancy, but that kind of friendship isn't what I'm trying to talk about. I am not trying to be cynical and try to tell you that you will never make friends or have someone that you can just talk to, tell them anything and there won't be any repercussions, I am just trying to tell you that you should be careful with whom you place your trust.
I've learnt that you really need to know a person before you can trust them, sometimes you must look at them from outside your little world and think about how they are really treating you. Because throughout my life I have trusted the wrong people and I have had to pay the price, they have made me seem like the bad guy and I don't want that for everyone else. I believe that everyone deserves second chances but sometimes we must realise that one second chance is enough, you may think your giving them a second chance but really you're just letting them back into your life because you think that without them you might not be okay. Because even though they treat you like shit 99% of the time that 1% seems to shine through to you, you seem to think that through losing your friendship they will change and become a better person. But the likelihood is they are exactly the same and they are just waiting to use you again.
I don't mean to be rude or doubt that real friendship exists but I need to voice these views and get them out of my system, this way I can make clear decisions with clarity and make the best judgement for me. Not in a selfish way that is cruel to others but in a way that I can be the best that I can be.

Dreams

Well this is my first proper post, not letting you guys know that I'm making a new site or getting a new email account. I was thinking about dreams and what it can all mean. I know that out there someone is reading this thinking she's a crazy person but I know that I'm right and dreams do have links to our subconscious. 
I'll  agree that sometimes we have weird dreams that don't mean anything. But on the other hand we may have dreams that actually do mean something and maybe in a religious or spiritual way are trying to tell us something. Even if you disagree about religious or spiritual connections you must at the bare minimum believe that what you're dreaming about is bothering you in some way and maybe subconsciously you are worried about something or feeling really strongly no matter what the emotion: joy; happiness; worry; deceit; care, etc..
Here are some thoughts, and before you do say I'm crazy I did some research for you too!


Dreaming about your ex:
Although you may think this is your subconscious trying to tell you that you are still hung up on someone that it only one of the possibilities. Another, and the more likely, is that after a less than pretty break up, you have tried to block the person out of your mind and now maybe and unresolved issue from the break up is raising its head...


Dreaming about your teeth falling out:
This is quite a vain dream, it involves our dominant worries about losing our looks. If you have recently found something you do not like about the way you look for example a few grey hairs or if you found you are beginning to get wrinkles. This dream occurs most frequently in menopausal women as their fears of losing their looks are becoming much more dominant in their minds.


Dreaming about being naked in public:
This type of dream can be very disturbing, especially if you fear your own body. If you do then the most likely cause of the dream is that you are feeling a bit bad about the current state of your body or maybe you are a little more self conscious than usual. This kind of dream can also symbolise a state of vulnerability, stress or embarrassment about a secret or a lie that you are keeping from someone close to you. You maybe concerned about the secret or lie surfacing and the one you least want knowing it, finding it out. This type of dream can also show preparedness for example if you showed up to school naked then it probably means that you have not yet completed homework or revised for a test as well as your subconscious knows you could have. The setting is the key part of this dream, telling you what you have forgotten to do or at the least telling you what it is regarding.


Dreaming of being chased:
This dream can be very scary when it is happening and slightly traumatic when it ends. The cause of this dream could be as simple as you watching a film or reading a book before you went to bed that involved some kind of chase. On the other hand it could be that you are worried about confronting a certain task and want to 'run away' instead of taking a heads on approach. If you do have this type of dream maybe think about why.


Dreaming about falling:
This dream can be easily interpreted as being very stressed. It can also mean that you believe that you are disappointing someone close to you or someone you respect.


Dreaming of flying:
If you are flying well, and gracefully this exciting dream can show your confidence for an upcoming task. 


Dreaming of being lost:
This is a simple dream to interpret and means that in some aspect of your life. It could be that you are worried that you are in a dead end job or that there has been a difference, perhaps distance between you and your partner. It usually means now is a good time to start thinking things over.


Dreaming about animals:
Dreaming about animals can reveal traits of our personality that we didn't even know about, for example... cats, including lions etc can show aggression and power, on the other hand dogs can show intuition, generosity and loyalty. Horses show arrogance and physical strength, and mice show insecurities, monkeys show deceit and mischievousness, snakes show knowledge, wisdom and sexuality and wolves show beauty, mystery and secrecy.
