What is a Dream
Though there are many different theories as to why we dream, so far, no one has discovered a proven theory on the subject. ... I agree with Freud in his assumption that dreams are made up of our suppressed emotions and desires as well as Jung in his assumption that dream symbols are the same among everyone. ... Freud believed that the motivating force of a dream is wish fulfillment. ... Sigmund Freud once stated, “The goal of therapy and dream interpretation is simple to make the unconscious conscious! ... Jung discovered that there were common dream symbols that ran across different cultures throughout centuries of time and these dreams symbols, which he called archetypes, remained the same for everyone regardless of their personal background. ... According to what I have read and considered, I have developed the opinion that our reactions to previously experienced stimuli are processed and released by our subconscious in the form of a dream.
