Do dreams impel you to action?

I’m talking about the dreams we have at night. You know, about our crushes and stuff, haha.

Last night I got a call out of the blue from an ex whom I haven’t heard from in half a year. She said that she had dreamt about me two nights in a row, and knew that she had to call me. It was a very nice occasion to catch up with her.

And I just woke from a dream about a certain French rascal who still makes me weak. I know I’m going to be restless until I write him, trying to sound intelligent and charming in a tongue other than my native one rather than further embarrassing myself.

Have dreams ever encouraged you to take a course of action? Does it have to be something that you’ve already decided on, and the dream just confirms it, or have dreams pushed you toward decisions you wouldn’t have made otherwise?

This is in Social. Have fun.
