Do you ever have a dream that seems so real, that when you wake up you feel like it just happened yesterday?

I had a dream like that last night. It freaked me out a little because it was so real! It was about someone from my past. The last time I saw this person, things were awkward and uncomfortable and full of bad feelings. Not at all a reflection on the friendship that we had built. But in my dream, I was hanging out with this person like we did in the old days...talking, and laughing a lot! The sun was shining, and we were at a park, although I didn't recognize the exact place. I can remember almost the entire conversation. We talked about building a bridge to repair our bond, shared stories about what we'd been up to, talked about our families, and sarted to bond all over again. Then, when we went to leave, we hugged, and I woke up. I could feel the hug, and even smell my friend. It was real, it creeped me out. But, in my dream we talked through the issues we had been having, and it made me feel like there is still hope to fix things of the past in real life.

After I woke up, I went for a good, long run and then to the Y for a workout. The entire time, I couldn't get that dream out of my head. Something so simple, yet it meant so much to me. It was about a conversation, a moment, that I have wanted so badly to have in real life. It made me start to wonder...can dreams show you how you things could have been? Or should have been? Or what about maybe giving you a glimpse into the future?! All I know is that if dreams mean anything, or can come true, this simple dream becoming reality could bring a peace of mind to me that I haven't had for months. So maybe, just maybe, dreams really can come true. :)
