A Poets View

In keeping with the dream interpretation theme I want to talk a little bit about sleep travel.  It’s been mentioned that while dreaming people have visited other realms or planes.  Some have even felt pain and traveled through years while in a dream state.  That just makes me wonder.  Is it possible for our souls or spirits to leave our physical bodies and travel through time?  When I personally experience a feeling of my spirit leaving my body while dreaming, I usually am startled and awaken.  I’m wondering if I did not wake up, would I continue to travel through time and space?

I think it arrogant of us to think that we are the only planet, plane and realm within this infinite universe.  I’ve always believed that there is much more out there and maybe within our dreams we are able to travel this universe without consciously knowing we are doing so.  I know my theories are a bit “way out there” for some however from what I’ve experienced I tend to think we are capable of much more than just your average dream.   Traveling while sleeping can be tiring so maybe that is why some of us are so tired when we wake up in the morning.  Seriously though,  I really do wonder if traveling through time is possible and if so, does it mean we can change our future?  Can we prevent tragic events?  Or, are our dreams merely dreams?  I really don’t know but I truly believe it is something to be researched and studied.  What are your thoughts on this subject?
