Who are you?

What are you doing in my dreams?

What do you mean?

Actually, do you have any meaning?

If you do mean something, how will I know?

And then — what am I supposed to do about you?

Many questions.

Many thoughts.

Many answers.

Many interpretations.

And too many people who will tell you that they know exactly what your dream means!

ARGH!!

Think about this…

Q — When you tell someone what you've dreamt and then ask them what your dream means — what is their external source of information?
