Ever had a dream that came true?

That movie is "Mr. Mom," starring Michael Keaton, if you're interested. It's a good movie, and was land-breaking at the time due to the perceptions of stay-at-home Dads and working Mom's in those days.

The events that I did dream came true when I was young and don't happen much these days.

It seems to be the same for me. I had "Deja Vu's" often as a kid, but not so much anymore. I still get them once or twice a year. Like Ayos, they're usually mundane events, like a conversation or just riding in a car. They usually involve someone else.

My most vivid example: When I was four I had a dream of looking out a door into a strange hall and seeing a man dressed all in black, who I saw as someone who would hurt me. A few months later, my family took a trip to New Orleans, and as soon as we got off the elevator I knew that this was the hall in my dream, and I got very apprehensive. The next day, I was in the hotel room alone for some reason, I was scared and wanted to find my parents, I looked out the door and saw the same man trying to get into the next room.

Most of my Deja Vu's fade away, but I can remember that one clearly. The yellowish tan paint, the golden light fixtures, the carpeting in the hall, the man... It may have been my first Deja Vu, and its certainly my most memorable.

I don't know why they seem to happen more to children. Maybe the stresses and worries of adulthood crowd them out of your brain. Maybe the child's brain is more plastic, still forming new connections, and more susceptible to Deja Vu dreams. Or maybe we're more gullible as children and we're just fooling ourselves into thinking we've dreamed an event before. Many will say it's just a figment of your imagination, but it's happened to me so many times I'm inclinded to believe that they are real.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
