Family & Love (Trenice)

My family and friends don’t have the rite to tell me whom to marry because I have to find true love by my self I know who I like and want to marry. It’s my choice and plus they not the ones who got to be with the duded you don’t want to marry for the rest of your life, if they like him so much they can marry him. The society is different know because our parents and friends ant got to tell use who to marry we get to find our own love and we bring them to our parents so they can know who our love is and so they can meet them and see do they like him. The man that going to marry the father daughter got to have approval from the father so he can ask can he marry his daughter. My family does kind of have a role of who I marry because if my family and friends don’t like who I marry its going to be hard because they is going to argue every time we get around each other and gone want to fight, and going to want to leave all early and I cant have that cause I like to be around my family. 

Illusions (Jesus)

I think the extent to which you can believe your own eyes is up to you. Because sometimes the eye will see what the mind wants it to see. It kind of ties into the whole dream thing, because illusions are kind of a form of daydreaming, which is also technically considered a type of dreaming. Illusion is seeing people or things that aren’t there or even imagining a situation that doesn’t really happen or to put it into simpler terms, seeing the unseen. I think in it’s own way it is important because sometimes people might just need to get away from the real life, even though the things they see might not be real. In my personal opinion without imagination we wouldn’t be half as far as we are when it comes to technology, houses and everything we have as humans.

Illusions (Juan)

The moment you see an illusion the first thing you would probably do is either rub your eyes oh stretch your arm out and reach to touch it. The reason these are good and sometimes bad, are because this can test your mind and see if you react good. The good reason for seeing a illusion is because the eyes sense them like for example if your stuck in a dessert and for some reason your dying of thirst and hunger, your eyes would react by seeing water and food when its not really their. And the bad reason for the illusions are because illusions can make a person go crazy and possible hurt someone or even itself because of the illusion. The worst type of illusion that could happened to someone is if they were to get stuck on an island, because the person would go crazy and imagine that there is food such as fruit water and more food for him/her to eat…

Dreams (Maria)

Dreams represent a look in the future. Helps people decide what they want for their future. It also a flashback to the past, makes people remember what has happened earlier in their life. It either has been something that made them suffer or make them remember that they used to have a happy life before something miserable happened. Dreams are good in a way, but bad in another way.

            The power of dreams, make people happy or sad. People dream good things, while others are having nightmares. Dreams make people think and doubt about the things in life. People suffer because of dreams they dream something bad and they think it’s going to happen and they are all scared. Thinking what do, so that dreams don’t come true.

            Dreams do have an effect on reality, because dreams do come true. Either its bad or nice some of them do come true. If it’s a nice dream like going to college, it’s pretty common to be a reality. Attending college is a good opportunity for somebodies future. It gives the opportunity to live better.

            A dream has affect my life because when I dream something bad about somebody, I don’t trust them no more. Which that dreams its not true but it make me think about that person. Dreams Are not such a good thing.

Love (Jamilex)

 Lysander said of love,  The course of true love never did run smooth.

Just because you really love someone, it doesn’t mean that everything is going to be easy and smooth. There are going to be hand times and misunderstandings. Sometimes things are harder when you care too much.

Dreams (AJ)

I think that dreams are true. I think I dream is something you are thinking about in your head when you are sleep, it could be certain ideas, images, flashbacks, or even an emotion. Sometimes dreams may come true but its all a scientific discovery and I believe that if we dream then animals dream to. When I dream about something then it happens in real life it could be something bad or it could be something good I mean, but you will never know because scientist haven’t figured it out yet. I really think that they can have a effected on reality because if you dream about something it’s a 75% chance that it will come true sooner or later, ten that’s when you have Déjà vu and that is jus something that you already seen before.

Love & Family (Brandon)

I think peoples family shouldn’t have a say in who u love because it is only one persons decision because it is there life they should love who ever they want to love. I think our society has changed because I never heard families choosing who they want son or daughter I only heard of it back in the old days so I think society has changed sine then. My family doesn’t play a role in who I love because they want me to make my own decisions if my family had to choose who I fall in love with I would stay single forever because I will probably not like who they choose, they will probably be someone I don’t like.

Helena says, “Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind.”

I think that is true because I think a lot of people love the way someone looks but they don’t know if they like the person they are. I think that’s how a lot of relationships are that’s why people fight a lot and that’s why people break up all the time.

love decision (Kevin)

I believe that family and friends should not interfere with anyone but their own love lives, unless they see the person that you are with as a threat to your physical and or emotional health, but as far as family and friends choosing who you be with I think they have the right to only suggest who you do and don’t date, but they cant control your feelings, and the overall decision of who you love is yours. You should still take into consideration what your family and friends tell you before making your decision, unless it’s for the wrong reasons because they are only trying to protect you from harm. In today’s society family and friends play a small role in a persons love lives but only when they don’t think the person is right for you, but if they see that you don’t care they wont try to affect your decision because you wont listen to them if you really love the person your with. I wouldn’t let my family choose who I be with because if I don’t choose the person I wouldn’t love the person and would be better off alone because it would be a waste of time to force attraction between two people who don’t have a connection.

Love (Enrique)

Helena said love looks not with eyes but with the mind she means by it that to not base everything with what you see but also with what you feel and with your head cause not everything should be about looks but what’s deep down inside and how the person is cause he could be the best looking but have the worst persona

So not just to let your eyes be the thing that’s make you decide

Who you love but your mind decide 

Love & Family (Quincy)

    I don’t think that my parents or friends would judge my future love because it just not natural to me. I would like to pick my own mate so I can be a happy person in my life. If someone force me a mate then I don’t know I doubt it be a good relationship.  If my parents would have done that I would let my mate meet someone else and lie to my parents that I still with the person but me I would have another if I had bad relationship with the mate. So I say they should not have the right to me they can help me on information but not judge.

    I would let my parents if I was a kid but now I’m older and I’m mature enough to choose what will be best for me. Sometimes when I dream of a soul mate they are real people and seen them before but I never talk to any of them.  Some people find things and it give them hints but it depends of what it is. I’m just saying there random and its not always like talk, have fun, and go out there other things besides that.

       

Love (Deangelo)

I think true love is always going to have its ups and downs. People get mad and take their anger out on everyone else without looking at the consequences of what can happen to their relationship. Love has no price and love also have no value it can’t be brought or paid for. Most relationships are basted on money one may think they’re in love but they are really being played. This problem is more common with girls than boys most of all females want the same thing money and diamonds. And most men fill like they can trust their girl when she can be using you or cheating on you the who time. I fill that every man should keep a eye on his girl no women is worth trusting before knowing who she is or how she is. Every girl has a secret one that they cant admit to no matter how bad you love her she will not tell you what type of bad person she is. I don’t believe in love at first sight because most people don’t fill the need to stay with a person that they just met for the rest of their lives.

Dreams (Brianna)

A dream can’t represent anything. Things we want, our imagination, things that have occurred in our lives, or even things that could happen. Scientist say that dreams come from this chemical called DMT. The chemical gets released when you fall in a deep sleep. The chemical is a hallucinogen that is why we image things that do not occur in reality. Dreams affect our lives because they can influence the way we act in reality, or if you dream of something that might happen in life it will help you know the right chooses to make, or help guide you.

Dreams can be bad and have bad effects on people. If you have a bad dream it can cause you not to want to sleep, be scared the dream may happen, it can also bring up things from the past. Being up someone’s past they don’t want to be brought up can mess up that persons day or life depending on what happened in the past and what was brought up in the dream. In a dream you can have your own life and our own decisions.

Reality (Rebecca)

3) You can believe someone with your own eyes when you see it and it can be to a positive or negative result it depends what you saw but first you should talk to the person. The nature of reality is the nature of the reality the reality of thing’s that may be a bad reality or a good reality. Illusion is sometimes important because you cant be making illusions on everything you see because illusions may be streaky and if its just an illusion then you may be causing problems or hurting other peoples feelings so its better if you find out what’s going on then you can judge with your beliefs and your illusions may help because you can imagine what’s going on so you can take precautions. Romance can have a lot of imagination because you can imagine what do you want to do next o you can imagine what you think you did or there are doing but sometimes we can use our imagination in the wrong way and that way we can cause problems.  And we need illusion in our life’s because illusions can help in a good way we can illusion ate on what we want to do next.

4) I picked the quote “love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind.” The reason I picked it is because I believe in this quote I believe that love can blind you some times and when you are in love you don’t always do things because of what your seeing but you first think about things you think if there good or bad for you and that person the person you love and that’s why the saying “love makes you blind” is true for me but sometimes we are just dreaming too high and once we wake up when we are not blind no more then that’s when reality hurts that’s when you think you felt down the cloud. Reality of things can make you not want to fall asleep no more because you’re scared of what you are going to wake up to. 

Parents picking who you marry (Ricardo)

I believe that it shouldn’t be up to your parent to pick who you should marry and the reason why is because if you don’t love that person than you are not going to care for them and I believe the reason why you someone is because you love them and you would want to take care of them for the rest of your life.  And another reason why you shouldn’t your parents pick your marriage partner is because they are not the one who are going to marry them, they are not going to have to deal with the problems he or she has like if he or she is a drug addict and he or she spends all of the money crack and weed and also another reason is because its your life and you should able to make your own decisions and you should be able to pick who you want to spend the rest of your life with. Plus More than likely you are going to end up separating up in the long run since you did not pick who you wanted to marry  and you are the only person that knows how you feel about a person .So those are the reasons why I believe that your parents should not pick your husband or wife 

True love is never easy (Bridget)

I believe that this quote Lysander said of love,  “The course of true love never did run smooth” (I, is, 134) is true. Because it is saying that true love has lots of obstacles and if it really is true love then you and your love can overcome them no matter what.  Most people would just give up every time something gets difficult in the relationship because they wont even see the point in trying. True love is never easy and if “love” is easy then it is not really true love then. When someone finds his or her true love then they would do anything to keep him or her in their lives.  If I find my true love one day I would do absolutely anything to keep him by my side. I would be with him through thick and thin. I’m sure most people these days don’t really believe in true love but when they do have it they will.  Love is never easy for anyone it has its up and downs a lot but in the end it is all worth it. Therefore that is the meaning of the course of true love never did run smooth. 

"Seeing is Believing?" - (Yesenia)

Midsummer’s Night Dream (Blog Topics Week 2)

“Seeing is Believing?” (Nature, Illusions, Reality, & Imagination)

  The quote “Seeing is Believing”, in my mind is considered to be true. If I can experience it, see it, or hear it for myself. I believe it to be true. I can also believe in almost anything as long as I keep on believing that anything is possible and most of the time containing some sort of logical explanation for that ‘anything’. That anything meaning it could be real or surreal. The nature in reality is anything organic and not man-made is said to exist. Unlike illusions, which aren’t usually real or always false.

  Illusions are important to us, knowing that a trick or an idea isn’t true. It could ‘cause serious damage to the mind and physically become a health issue. Damage to the mind by hearing false theories can change your beliefs on things. You can even make wrong decisions based on the false theories you’ve heard. It could also hurt your health, in example, you have heard a theory or a saying that you can lose weight if you stop eating sugary foods. That is a false idea, if you don’t have some sugars every other day, you will crave it ten times more when you don’t have any so really you’d be gaining that weight rather than losing it. Even though illusions are usually a bad thing, it still is needed in our lives. Illusions are what make us help create sometimes major decisions. Illusions are what also make us find out information to correct an idea that’s untrue. Not having illusions would make everything seem like it’s too good, or too good to be true that is.

  Sometimes in relationships, things do seem like it’s too good to be true. It could be just your imagination that a love relationship is good. In your mind you could receive an idea that your relationship with someone is flawless just because you two as a couple have never argued. You could get an idea that your partner has huge money ‘cause they’re always spending it on you. Your romance is probably about 50% of your imagination and everything in your relationship that makes it seem like it’s this and that (Good/perfect/bad). You can get any idea from your imagination and romance, but in the end you will never really know what’s true and what’s not.

Helena Says (Angelica)

            Helena says, “ Love looks not with the eyes but, with the mind “ what is means is that what she is trying to say is that she does not judge the man she loves for his physical but for who he is inside and the way he thinks with his mind. I strongly agree with Helena’s quote because I think it is more important to have a man that thinks like you and likes the things you like and is more similar to you from the inside than to choose him only for his physical or for his facial affects love is not all about there outside, but it is also a great part too.  I think the outside can fool people they can make a whole different part of themselves a whole new them.  And you have to take the time to get to know the person down deep, make them feel comfortable with you to let them know you are okay for who they really are.  Time makes everything in the future much more easier you will be able to see them deep. From your mind, to his mind.

            

“Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind.” (Blanca)

Helena uses a quote that love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind meaning that not because a person is very good looking or just because it looks like a good person its going to be that way sometimes people can be very cute and treat you very well at first and end up been your worst nightmare sometimes they can pretend to be something their not to get what they want. People that are not use to things happening to them can be a easy catch but that’s why you have to be very careful To see how a person really is you have to know what they think see how they are see what kind of things the do.  Its not easy to find a true love or simply just a good friend but when your patient you can find really good people in this cause a very nice pare nor perfect but have a nice and long relationship and also can get married and have a family but both of you have to be sure about what you feel and want. Understand one each other. You will be surprised with your self if a day you get in love with someone that’s not very cute but treats you as anyone have done before.

"Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind" (Name?)

“love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind”

this statement is very true. What this is saying is, love is mental, its not based off of how someone looks to determine whether one loves that person or not. It depends on the personality. Looks are definitely a factor, depending on the person; SOMETIMES, but looks are more lust, rather than love. There is a quote that says, “ a blind man once taught me how to love “ I feel these quotes mean the same thing. You can be blind all you want but that doesn’t effect how you love someone, that doesn’t affect the way they talk to you, that doesn’t affect, the way they treat you, and that doesn’t affect the way you feel about them. It is all based on how you feel about the things they do and the things they say, which is mental. So all you need to love, is a heart, and a brain. Hermia is in love with Lysander, he doesn’t have they best clothes. He doesn’t have the best looks, but she is in love with him for the way he acts towards her, and the thing he does. If it was based off of looks then shed ‘love’ Demetrius because his family is wealthy.

Family & Love (De'Aric)

Family or friends shouldn’t choose who you love. It’s the lovers choice to choose they’re own love. Why would I ask my mom or dad who should I love and I plain on being with them all my life. If I had my dad choose he would probably choose someone he would like. My love my choice that’s what I say. Now family and friends can play a role in my love life. Examples I would ask friends future things about my love like what should I get her if I do get her anything the reason is say that is because I really don’t buy girls anything well to think about it I only but female family member things but if I were to give my wife I gift I would ask family and friends what’s the best choice. I would also ask my friends who they think look the best , but that really wouldn’t matter if the girl they think look better if she don’t treat me the way I want her to. Its not all about the way they look because the girl can be really pretty but attitude really ugly. So my thoughts are its not okay for family and friends pick your love.

Helena says, “Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind.” (Travon)

            Helena says, “Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind.” Love is within the mind and not the heart, because you can't just look at somebody and say you love them.  You got to feel the love you got for your spouse. Love is within the mind because as you got know you feel that person you with cause if you don’t she/he just another girl you looking at you got to know that person before you can say you love them, love is a beautiful thing that is in your mind in your heart by looking at somebody and being with them for awhile in think that’s love no you got to know the girl/boy you with. Love is something deep love is a one time thing true love don’t come around everyday if you look at somebody in you say you love them its not the truth love is not something you say to everybody and every girl/boy you meet you got to mean you love them in wanted be with them you got to set your mind to they heart and set is in your heart to cause if you truly love somebody you going show her.

Reality (Abraham)

To what extent should we believe our own eyes? I guess it comes down to your point of view of this question. For it can mean many things. As the obvious one; Should we believe everything we see? I shall say 'No'. Since everything we see can be real or not.

The nature of Reality. Well, the nature of reality is cruel, for it usually never favors anyone with good intentions. Our reality is a dark and dismal one, since the people that live in society are usually heard to late to change anything. Technology may continue to advance but people continue to regress, acting worse then animals. But what is worse is that animals have never caused a war, since it is in another invention that men have created.

Illusions. Illusions are important for what they can hide or reveal. Everyone hides themselves in illusions, for example; Wanting to fit in with the crowd. We all have illusions that blind and drive us. Sadly, it can be for worse if we have no one to turn to for help.

Imagination in Romance. Imagination is important like everything else about us. And when you use it in romance it could either be for good or for bad. Good when you and your lover have things planned out for the future. Bad when you use it to hurt your partner. But for either cases we still need imagination to help fill our fantasies and our lovers as well.

Illusions in our Lives. As for what I am concerned with, we use illusions just about everywhere we go. While illusions can also be classified as masks. We use illusions/masks everyday wherever we go, At schools, at home, with our friends, at work, with family, and even with ourselves. As illusions go, we can even classify life as an illusion.

To end this, I shouldn't ask this but I would like to ask people: Think real hard on this question; What do you do that is wrong? Do you change it for the better or make it worse? All in All, I ask for you all to learn from your mistakes and show your real self to people.

Helena “Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind.” (Oscar)

      Helena says, “Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind.” I truly agree with this quote.  I agree with this quote because love is not based on looks all the time.  It’s about your partner true feelings towards you. If he really loves you, if he or she would really want to be with you for there rest of there.  That’s what she means that love looks in the mind not with the eyes. You could fall in love with the most gorgeous person in the world, but then you realize that you fell in love with the wrong person cause they could only be interested on.  Probably I'll fall in love with beautiful girl. And the girl is better looking for me she could do better. Looks don’t matter. She would fall in love with my personality not base on my looks.   The mind can see the real beauty that is inside. But most of us are carried away from the looks in a physical appearance, for example tight and shiny dress of a woman. True love comes from the mind (or the heart) and should not be based on ones looks.

Love Quotes (Rosa)

Helena says, “Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind.” (I, I, 234- 235)

I choose this quote because I so agree with Helena how you don’t fall in love with what you see but with how you feel and how you think about that person. For Helena it seems like she doesn’t care about the looks or if he is really cute or “ Hot “ because I mean why do you want a guy with the looks if you don’t even see him with love, I think person should always go for what they feel inside of them because I think if you don’t have love its hard to be happy, you need love from somebody. In order to be happy in life. Take for example: lets say you marry a hot looking guy and once you guys start getting old don’t you think that body is going to change? It is were all going to change. So why be with that hot LOOKING person when you can be with a guy you really love and you wont even care how he is going to look 80 years from now. So my point is LOOKS don’t Matter What Matters IS What You Feel Inside

What Dreams Mean To Me (Nancy V.)

       Well the dreams mean to me. Is that their so special. Dreams for me are like fantasy… but sometimes I feel like their so real that there are actually happening but then you wake up and you realize that is not really happening…sometimes I think that dreams are real and that their actually going to happened then I realize that it wound happened because dreams are made up dreams are not real everything is made up everything is just a fantasy…why sometimes people think that dreams are real when their not their just a fantasy of kids. For example KIDS sometimes dream that their astronauts and that they saw a lot of magical things up there …and then they tell their parents and I know that none of the dreams are real because are made up their only fantasy and they will never exist never cause their only dreams at least that’s what I think about the dreams…well my little nephew told me one day that he dreamed that he flew like superman and I resist to laugh because I know if I laugh he would of get sad and probably mad at me so I ask him and what else happened…and he said that he flew all around the world and I was like that’s amazing…. And like I said dreams for me are just a fantasy

Lysander's Quote on Love (Jose G)

Lysander said of love,  “The course of true love never did run smooth” (I, i, 134)  I agree with the quote. True love should never run smooth because then the relationship will be boring. I don’t think there will ever be a relationship that runs smooth. People need problems in their relationship because with out them the relationship wont work out so well. Some relationships say they never fight or they never have any problems, but either the guy or girl gets mad at the other at some point, but keeps his/her feelings inside, and never say anything. That’s not good, they might not get into fights or anything like that, but at one point they will get tired, and take all of their feelings out. That’s when the relationship starts to brake off, and sometimes the guy even ends up beating the girl. When people fight in their relationship it helps them to get stuff fixed so the next time they know the other person don’t like this, or that or just simply being able to decide wit an agreement. Fighting also helps to get to know that other person better, you find out what they like, and what they don’t like. Fighting is a good thing in a relationship it helps you know weather that persons for you or not.

Dream (Jamilex)

      Dreams represent reality to me probably for some people too!! I think that what you seen and experience in the real world influences what you see in your dreams. Also I think that is you really want something and dream about it, it is more likely to become true. I dreamed about getting a car, and I got a car. I dreamed about my aunt having a baby, and she had a baby, so I think that dreams can represent the reality. Me and my aunt and my mom and my cousin have this problem that when we dream something it comes to reality probably the next day it will happen it will take a while but it does happen   it’s so weird because we tell each other what we dreamed about and then were like I did dreamed that to but it was a little bit different then that dream you had it sounds the same dream and its funny how we have the same dreams but then we tell my other cousin or my uncle what did you dream I don’t know or nothing.

Dreams (Juan)

Dreams at night during the day oh when you relax you may start to dream. The dreams that are created in your sleep oh whenever you dream can cause impacts on life or even to you physically. Dreams are made to unify your body, mind, and spirit. Its also for self-exploration of your self. Dreams have the power to cause something good and or bad to your body. I have dreams that make me feel like I’m fallen but never get to the end of that great long fall. I don’t think I have been affected because of my dreams before I have dreamed something and comes to life like I foreshadowed into my dream and the later on that week it happens. I personally think that dreams represent life ahead of time and when you dream your body is asleep but your spirit isn’t. when your spirit is awake it is when your asleep and it goes on with time time never waits for nothing it means that your spirit lives everything before you and your body can live it so that is why sometimes DEJAVU happens, and you tell someone “oh I dreamed this before “ that’s what it is in my opinion.

Dreams & Relationships (Rebecca)

Dreams represent things that may happened or thing that you want it to happened, the power of dreams may be day JA bu when you see or dream something that then it happens in real life, dreams may do effect the reality because if once you dream of something bad then it does happened in real life and you’re life may be affected, sometimes you don’t listen to your dreams and you think it might never happen but once it happens then your life may be affected in a good way or bad way, in my personal life a dream have probably never affected me that much, but it has affected me because sometimes I dream of something and I wanted to happen but it don’t happen and if I don’t want it to happen then it happens so yea sometimes it affects me but not as much.

                                     

Friends and family do not have a right to tell you who to love or how to love the person, they have the right to say there opinion but they cant tell you who to love, because if you let other people choose the people they want you to talk too then you wont be happy except if they can see the future or something like that. Our society has changed regards to this because everybody do there own little thing they pick the people they want to love or the people they want to hang around with, they do there own thing freely. My friends and family don’t play the roll of who I love because there are not going to be the ones who have to deal with that person so that’s why I pick who to love by myself, but I do take there opinion really seriously because they just want the best for me and I would think about it but ill do as my heart desires.

Dreams (Ana)

              Dreams, everyone has had one at least one time in his or her life. Dreams of course can represent a lot of things. They can represent goals that we have, but are too afraid to try. They can also represent doubts we have in life. Things we are afraid to fail at and things that might disappoint people we know. Some people, myself included, think that sometimes dreams can show warnings or visions of the future that our actions create.

            Although dreams do not harm us physically they can have a mental effect on us. When we try to decide what to do in our everyday life. Even little things like deciding what to eat or wear can all come from some type of dream that we had either that day or any other day for that matter.  Dreams can have a huge impact on how we see the world or for that matter “reality”.

            I’ve had dreams that were stuck on my mind for the whole day. Sometimes analyzing the dreams was a better thing for me. On doing that I found out that I over thought decisions that normally would have been easy. If something happens in “reality” that I once had a dream on I would think if maybe the dream was coming true or if it was just a coincidence. Everyone thinks differently about what dreams mean and how they affect our everyday life.

Family & Your Love Life (Tony)

Family got no reason to be in others love life its not who the parents love it is who the person loves because we are not all the same even if you are family mom, dad, sister, or even brothers there not the same they got different personality not all the same there not going to be happy with the same thing so let them choose who they like in there relationship it never the parents but the parents can give you a helping hand but never there choice its really up to you to chose who you really love and makes you happy.  Our society changed from then is that you get to choose who you want to be with an you don’t got to have your parents choosing for you now but only have there opinion in it they can only do some things but not choose your lover and you don’t have to pay for the one you love no more just the wedding if you want a nice wedding.  No they do not play a roll in my because they really don’t care at long as I am happy and really they got trust in me in choosing the one I love or the one I want in my life but they don’t want me to get marry just yet I am to young for marriage.

Family & Your Love Life (Brianna)

I feel that family has the right to say who you are with un-tell you are of age.  They allows watch out for the best of you if they don’t think the people you love is fit for you they should have the right to tell you, you are not making wise choices. Friends also have the right to say who you love if they treat you wrong. If your family or friends just don’t like him or her because of stupid little things then they don’t have a right to an opinion on who you’re with or love. The one I love society wont let us be together because age issues and my parents don’t agree wit us being together. My friends have a role in this because they are the only one I can talk to about him. They understand what is going on and they think we make a good couple and should be together. My family has a role in this to because most of my friends doesn’t like him or want us talking but some also understand that he is a good person and will do things that better me and my life. In a way I feel like Hermia I have people trying to make my own decisions for me.

Dreams (Brandon)

Dreams to me represent what your thinking of when you fall asleep and sometimes dreams represent what you want to be when you grow up like what your goals in life is. Sometime dreams do come true. People say if you dream about something it would usually come true. Dreams do have an effect on reality because people say if you have a dream that is realistic it would come true in the future. I had a dream one time about school and like I had a dream. It was about me doing something bad in class I figured since it was a dream it wasn’t going to come true so I did not listen to my dream so when I went to school later that week I did something stupid in class and I got in trouble later I was thinking and I remember about the dream I had and I was like wow the dream came true.

Dreams (Deangelo)

I think dreams can be effective in reality because they say if it is not importing dream you wont remember what the dream was about. Some people think if you find love in a dream then something led you to believe that the person in your dreams love you.  Dreams play a crucial part in each individual lives for many reason. Dreams are apart of reality. Some individual at times have had dreams of what will come in reality; sort of like Déjà vu. A dream can alter one’s goals and life style in “reality”. For myself, dreams have not effected what I do in real life.  I tend to look at dreams as my imagination when I am sleep. Dreams do not have any effect on my mental or physical state. Some individual might view dreams as a “wake of call”; however, I also view dreams a entertainment while I am sleep. There are dreams that we are aware of and there are also dreams that we do not remember. Dream represent how we think, act, and view life, in “our” opinion. Dreams allows us to act out of fantasy without any problems. Dreams are our imagination just playing while we are sleep. 

Dreams (Jesus)

I think it kind of depends on what kind of dreams your talking about, if you mean the kind of dreams like what you would like to be when you grow up or something that you would like to happen someday. Those represent something you would probably give anything to have happen. They can affect reality in a great way, because some people will spend their entire life and put in a lot of time and sometimes money trying to reach their dreams, and not every case is successful. That kind of dream has not really affected me before, except that when I tell people I want to be a therapist none of them believe me and some even laugh. The other dream is something else. They represent a sort of movie kind of thing you see when you sleep. I have heard that dreams are the things that you most want to happen,  (obviously they have never had a nightmare before). It can also affect reality too because some people obsess over certain dreams they have and sometimes people have reoccurring dreams and they have to see specialists to help them with the meaning. They haven.t had much affect on me except for the occasional scary dream every once in a while.

“Love” (Monica)

If Someone Loves Someone Nobody Can’t Get Into It, And Well My Family And Friends Don’t Have The Right To Tell Me Who I Need To Love Because I’m Going To Be The One Who’s Going To Leave With It All My Life And Plus They Don’t Know If I’m Always Going To Be With That Person, Neither Can’t Suggest Who I Can Be With Or Who Can I Not Be With Because Its My Choice Who I Pick For My Husband For The Whole Future.

Our Society Has Changed Because Now In Days Parents Don’t Like We Love Or They Say He Is Not The Right One For You, Parents Just Want To See Us Happy With The Person We Love Or We Want To Share A Whole Life Time With. Yes My Parents Play A Role On Who I Love Because I Would Want My Parents And Him To Get Along With Each other So When There’s Family Parties Or Some Thing He Can Be With All Of The Family And My Friends Yes Because They Want To See Me Happy With Some One Who Can And Will Make Me Happy.

Love Is All We See Know In Days And Broken Hearts Every Day Too.

Family & Your Love Life (Rosa)

Do friends and family have the right to tell you who to love --- or even to suggest who to be with? I don think they do because its who you want to spend the rest of your life with, its not going to be them living with them, they have to let you make your own choice How has our society changed in regards to this? Yes big time because before parents decided who you had to marry and now your marry who you want to not who your parents chose, in the past years parents only made they children marry good people that came from rich families, that for me is like there trading or exchanging there son/ daughter for money and that’s not right, so I really do think it has changed. Do your friends/ family play a role in who you love? Why/ why not? I think that both family and friends play a special role in your life but in your love life you make your own decision of who you marry and even if your friends or family dislike who you want to get married with if they really love you they well understand you and just stick to your side, even if at last turns out to be a mistake that he/ she wasn’t the love of your life, so about the why or why not I think its in between.

Dreams (Quincy)

I think dreams are the best surrealism to have in your life because people imagine that they want to fly, being invincible, or never die that’s what people to do but dreams happen like that in your sleep. Dreams get random and you cant pick your dreams but sometimes it can use references like if you talk to a person or looking at sometimes more than a few times you might see it in your dreams. I think dreams have something to do with reality and to tell you something but depends on the events of what is happening on it. Things what happening on your dream can depend on what is going on with like stress or being real happy it could affect it. That’s why there are dream book you can read to find out what is your dream about you could learn from it.
       Sometimes when you in your dream you can things from reality like somebody talking or music you can really here it or you can feel something from reality but dream make it like they doing it to you but its not its reality. So that’s what I think about dream I like dream by the way there fun and sometimes but imagination like flying or being invincible could be in a dream that probably the reason for it.

Dreams (Oscar)

Dream the definition of dream ‘’ a series of thoughts, images, and sensations occurring in a person’s mind during sleep. They say the rules of reality don’t apply in the fantasy world of dreams but in some way what you dream is connected to your reality life.  We spend about 8 hour a day 56 hours a week, 240 hours a month, and 2,920 hours a year sleeping that’s about one third of our lives we spent sleeping.  Every human being has dreams.  The power of dreams is that it could hunt you for what you have done in the past or things that might happen to you in a good way or in a bad way in the future.  I’ve had dreams that had affected me in the real world. It was the second round of regionals for soccer in high school the biggest game in my life and honestly we lost cause of my fault and at that night that was all in my mind that it was my fault the following day I had for got about it but at the same night I had a dream about the game. After wards I couldn’t sleep. It haunted me making me feel like a loser.

Family & Your Love Life (Bridget)

I don’t think that my family and friends have the right to tell me whom to love because it’s my life and that’s what I get to decide. But they do have a say in telling me what they think about him because after all they are in my life and I care about them. But no matter what they say its not going to stop me from loving them. They may suggest whom I should be with but if I don’t want to be with that person I wont and they cant make me. Our society has changed so much over this because before the parents just told their kids they had to marry the one they had picked for them without having a say in their own lives. And now that tradition is gone now we get to pick whom we marry or date.  My parents and friends don’t currently play a role in who I love because I don’t really love anyone right now. But when I do I’m sure they will be a part of it. If I do date someone and fall in with then and my parents didn’t like him at all I would be torn because I love both my family and my lover. 

Dreams (Brenda)

Dreams represent a lot of things, but in reality its nothing but a fantasy. People dream all the time and some of the time it affects what you do in the real life. Why? Because you get to thinking and you think that your dreams are true or will become reality so because of that some people take things to far and do certain things that you wouldn’t do if you knew it was nothing but a dream not reality.  Dreams do have a lot of power because like i said they can give you the power to do things in the real life that you wouldn’t do if you knew it was a fantasy/dream. Dreams represent something that you know you wouldn’t do or would want in reality so they happen in the dream fantasy world. Most people can control the fantasy and they know its just a dream but some jus get so paranoid and go out and do stupid things.  But That’s something that hasn’t happened to me. I’ve had dreams before but they weren’t as strong for them to affect me in reality and make me do things I know wouldn’t do if I didn’t know it was a dream.

Dreams (Ricardo)

I do believe that dreams can effect you in "reality" because theres all kinds of different types of dream like there is scary types of dreams. Theres also sad dreams, weird dreams and good dreams. Usually when you  have a very interesting dream you think about them threw out the day. Some people think that dream are a interpretation of something thats going to happen in the future or something that is going on in your life. Also another reason why dreams effect your reality is because reality also effect your dream because if something is going on Good or Bad and you are thinking about it alot you might have a dream about the situation. Another thing is if you have a very scary dream about a talking chicken attacking you might start having a fear of chickens. And if its a good dream like you winning a competition or you getting a good job your going to be motivated you get that job your to win that competition and your going to push yourself just because of seeing that dream. So thats why i believe dreams can effect you in reality, they can motivate you or they can give you a new fear and they could also show you, your future.

"Dreams" - Yesenia Villarreal

Midsummer’s Night Dream (Blog Topics Week 1)

In my POV, I believe dreams represent a lot of things, even people, déjà vu, places, and experiences. Dreams can represent contemplation, major issues, decisions, nightmares, and the past. I don’t dream often; most of my dreams are about everything listed up above. My dreams usually foreshadow in reality. The power of having ‘dreams’ is that no matter what you dream of, you can’t control it. Whether you dream of something surreal as to being a superhero compared to a reality dream with yourself to a recurring event in every day life, you have no power of your dreams. Your dreams however can have control or power over you. I have had several dreams where the outcome in reality was true and did happen. I have also had several surrealistic dreams that could’ve been horror films. I have had a dream about 2 or 3 years ago where I was in a room with no windows, or doors, absolutely nothing. It was an empty room. Everything was completely boxed in and I was standing in the center of the room. It was pretty dark and everything in the entire room had a hint of a brownish color. I was holding a globe, in front of the globe was facing North America. Sound was missing. Everything stood still, even myself. As I was holding the globe, I placed my left hand on the top of it and start to turn it downwards. As I did this the room started to shake like an earthquake and parts of the ceiling had started to crack and fall onto the floor and then, I realized that the world was falling. Not, just North America but every continent and even its islands. I started to fall forwards and onto the floor while holding the globe and I was screaming for help. No one could hear me but me. I woke up screaming. I was having an unforgettable nightmare that represented the End of The World, 2012. Now 3 years later, we are in the year 2012. Being aware of everyone who thinks the world will end this year, is terrifying. I don’t believe in it. The dream related to ‘2012’ was surrealistic, it hasn’t happened. A lot of questions come to mind about this dream even today, so many things don’t add up to a logical explanation. But yes, many of my dreams relate to actual life. Most of them foreshadow, but not all.

Dreams (Jose)

Dreams represent anything that is going on in your mind at the moment. Maybe even what you are thinking about when you go to sleep. Also since when you sleep your body is just rest your not listening to anything or anyone so you have time to yourself to just with out even trying to just think of stuff and there becomes your dreams. The power of dreams is that it’s all in your fantasy life so its anything that you want it to be. Dreams wont have an effect in reality because it’s just all in your mind and lot in real life just all simply a fantasy life in your head. Dreams never really affected me in real life just that sometimes when I have dreams a random person and I see them in school I remember and I’m like oh wow I had a dream about them last night. Sometimes I also want my dreams to be real because in my dream it was just want I wanted to happen in real life but sadly that cant happen in real life. Dreams can also be nightmares and also feel real and just scare you now those dreams are not so fun.

Your Love Life & Family (Luis)

 There are a lot of reasons why your family wouldn’t want you to love or be with a certain person but it doesn’t mean that they can tell you who to or not to be with, its not right at all for your family or friends to tell you who to love because they are not going to be the with someone they don’t want to be with  or have to be spending there time with them its better if your with some one you want to be with and actually love, not because some one made you love him or some one made you be with him but because you actually do love him and want to be with him . Its has changed in the way that there’s not laws of what you can and cant not do or the color skin of a person you can be or not be with. Society has changed a lot in many ways, like for example during slavery a black man/women couldn’t be with a white man/women because they where know as the people who did the dirty jobs the white people wouldn’t want to do and if a black man was seen with a white women they would bit him or punish him in someway. My family doesn’t tell me who to love or not to love because I’m a boy and it’s really different from a boy and a girl with parents. I can go out with who ever I want they would let me do anything, come at the time, and for a girl they would have to come home at a certain time and know who they was going out with but now in day girls do want they want to do and are able to do out more when they get older. 

Dreams (Keith)

1.     Dreams represent a lot of things. In my opinion dreams represent your thoughts and you’re imagination. Since I think dreams represent your thoughts I think dreams can tell you a little bit about who you are. People within big imaginations will have more creative dreams and people who don’t have a lot of creativity will have boring dreams Dreams can have an effect on reality because when you see something happen in a dream that can effect how you see things in reality. Like if you dream a dog bites your leg off it’s a possibility that you are going to have a fear of dogs. And a little thing called deja vue  has an effect too because when you have a dream about a certain situation and you end up in that kind of situation you can chose to be in that situation or not and change the outcome. When I dream I make sure I remember every one because I think there could be something to the dream no matter how crazy it is. A dream effected me in reality because when I was little I had a dream my mama bought me a new bike and the next day she did and I thought I was a psychic for about a week.

Your Love Life & Family (Gabbi)

My family does not have the right to tell me who to love & who not to. They can give me their opinion on which person I should date but never who to love. I should already be old enough to know what I’m doing and who is a good guy and not. In the past I’ve dealt with this problem because my parents would try to hold me back from being with someone who I used to love and they made it very difficult for me and that person to be together happily with no problems. At the end we had to break up because it was just too much drama for us. Society has changed from simply 30 years ago. Back then children would take to the heart what their parents would think about their relationship with their boyfriend and girlfriend. Also if a boy wanted to date someone they would have to go ask for there parents permission and ask if it was okay. Like in my cultural a lady is not allowed to date until after she had had her 15, because in the Hispanic cultural that is when a lady becomes into a woman in there eyes. 

should family interfere with their family's love? (Aj)

 I think that family really shouldn’t interfere with others love because it can cause a lot of problems and arguments. Plus they really don’t know how you feel about that person or how much you love them, or do you just love them.

Your Love life and Family (Daniel)

Nobody in my family or friends has ever told me whom to love, but I actually care if they are happy and like the girl I love, but they have suggested whom to date. I think they’ve suggested it because they like the girl and they probably think that she would make a good girlfriend, but I don’t really consider it because they know they cant make me like that girl. Our society has changed a lot since when parents chose other peoples mate, one way our society has changed is that many documents have gone through our society that tells us that we have a right to think whatever we want and we also have the right to love whoever we want. Yes my family and friends actually play a role in who I love, they play a role in that I try very hard to make all my love ones really care and love my girlfriend. I especially care if my mother cares and likes my girlfriend because no one knows best than your own mother because their older and they have much more experience with life and love and that’s why I really prefer dating a girl that my love ones really care about.

Dreams ( De’Aric )

                                                                               

            Dreams are a very fantastic sensation that mostly occur when a person is sleep. There has been some occasion’s were people day dream but , that’s like blanking out for a while just looking out into space and usually stops when you hear noise. A dream on the other hand stops when someone or something physically wakes you up out of your sleep. Dreams are so fascinating because they don’t occur every night so you really cant predict when your going to have a dream.

            Dreams can also be real. Example I had a dream that my friend had gave me money. I told my friend that and he gave me money in real life. I think he gave it to me because I told him about the dream ,but he still gave it to me. Another occasion that a dream has walked into reality is when I had a dream that I was swinging on some swing and my mom had smack my back in real life to wake me up for school but I was still sleep and my back was hurting in my dream. I remember the time I had a dream inside a dream. Because in my dream I was sleep dreaming. In the dreams dream I fell out my bed and in real life I woke up on the floor so I must have fell out my bed in real life like I did in my dream.

Dreams

What is the power of dreams? The power of dreams is you can control your dream and you can do what you want in your dream. The power is like you can think about something at nighttime then start dreaming about that thought you had all night. Can dreams have an effect on "reality"? I do but then again I don’t cause you can dream about you winning something about it don’t never come to reality cause it just a dream that you have when you sleep and that again nothing to reality you can’t be like superman in reality but you can a dream cause it’s a thought that you is thinking about. Has a dream ever effected what you did in your real life? No a dream ever effected what I did in real life cause can’t no dream effect what I do in real life cause its my life and I’m not going to let a dream control my life for a dream the only way a dream can effect my what I do in real life if it’s a sin from god or I know it’s a sin or something but a dream can change and effect some people real life.

Dreams (Enrique)

    Dreams sometimes represent things that you lived or things

You have gone thru sometimes dreams can even predict things in the future. Like if you’re stressed or have a lot of things on your mind

Your dreams might have something to do with obstacles or something

You have to do to with getting through something. Dreams can

Also warn you about things like danger or a death some people

May dream about a loved one dyeing and maybe some time in the

Future some one they know will end up dyeing. If you are avoiding

Problems they might catch up to you in your dreams so you can handle

Them. my dreams I don’t really dream I have had dreams but I cant remember them I do know sometimes when im having a good dream like

About money or something and it feels so real I hate waking up and not being able to fall back asleep and go back to the dream so I guess dreams can also be a way to relax and do things that you cant do in reality.

And if you have a dream about something bad happening to you at work or school that will keep you on your feet

Dreams (Juwan)

Dreams can represent many of things for many different people, like for some it can be a safe place to escape from reality and live an alternative life where they’re doing something or being someone they feel to be important. Others may see dreams as signs into the future, like if they had a dream of them having lots of money, cars, clothes, and girls they would probably think that’s what they can and will have and work to get there. On the contrary if they had a dream of them in poverty with no job and a family to provide for they would see that as a sign and try to fix or change it. The power of a dream is magnificent and I say this because no matter if the dream is good or bad its going to have an effect on that person weather their thinking about it constantly while their conscious or trying to live it out or avoid it from coming a reality. Personally I’ve been effected by some, but not in physical way to where it was effecting my reality, it was more of a mental effect and it caused me to think hard about what I’m doing and what I should be doing to make this dream a reality or even in some cases to avoid what I see coming.

          

'LOVE thou' (Alecia)

Do your friends and family play a role in YOUR ‘love’?

Although Parents’ play an important role in there child’s life. I feel they don’t have a right to tell their son/daughter whom to love. I honestly don’t think its possible. People fall in love depending on how ‘they’ feel about that someone, NOT how their parents feel about them. If the parents like that someone then they should marry them. Everyone has their own needs, wants, and is attracted to different things. Just because parents like someone that doesn’t mean there son/daughter is going to like them as well. BUT, I do feel its right for parents to give their opinion. Sometimes people can’t see how that ‘ someone ‘ is not right for them, and they need to hear it from someone else. For example, if there was an abusive relationship going on, and the one getting abused kept using the excuse “ but I’m in love, I cant leave him/her “ I feel as a parent its there right to tell there child, “you need to leave him/her“ but then after they state that and give there reasons why, I feel that that is all they can do. The society has definitely changed. Back then; the child had no right to choose whom they loved. Honestly, I feel like choosing whom you love isn’t really a choice. It just comes naturally, which is one of the reasons no one can actually ‘tell’ someone whom to love. I’m glad the societies changed, because with todays generation I feel as if no one would even go by that rule anyways. 

Your Love Life & Family (Jose)

Friends and family should never get to choose the person you love. People shouldn’t tell you that’s the person you love because they don’t know what you feel about that person. They have the right to tell you if they like that person for you or not, but that’s all they can do because just cause they don’t like that person doesn’t mean your going to leave the person you love. Back in the days they didn’t have a choice no matter what they married the person they were told to marry, and that’s why a lot of tragic happened in the plays and real live. Things changed now days if the parents don’t like someone, but the child loves them the parents always loose. They need to learn that they don’t choose our happiness they were there for part of our live now its our turn to be dependent, and make our own decisions, and choose who to be with. I live my life trying to be with the person I love, and it’s so hard to see her or even communicate with, but like I said parents always loose, and they might be winning now but once we’re adults they loose. People would do anything for the person they love whether other people like it or not.

Dreams (Abraham)

Dreams. To be frank with this, I say they represent things we want and don't want.

Dreams can be bliss or disastrous. The power a dream has depends on the person who is dreaming it. If a person who takes dreams seriously will be more likely to relate things to dreams. While others who don't care for dreams are more likely to push them aside. In the end dreams still hold some sort of power.

Do dreams affect reality? I say "Yes.", because many people will contribute things they have done on a certain day to the dream they had that night. But either way, many dreams have affected reality. Adolf Hitler as a primary example. He dreamed of a world without Jews and ruled by Germans. So in retrospect any dream can compel anyone to do anything.

Has a dream affected my way of life? Yes. As far as family and friends go, I have had many saddening dreams about them. Which has made me appreciate them more and become closer to them. I would rather have my friends and family alive and well then dead and gone in my dreams. So you can say that dreams affect everyone in certain ways at a certain time.

So, all in all dreams do have many different effects and consequences but it probably won't be the same kind of feelings or consequences as the person next to you, but that is one thing that makes us unique as a person. To each have our own way to dream and to understand it.
