I wished the dream were real, and this reality a dream. But that wasn't the case. And that was why, whenever I woke up, I'd be crying. It wasn't because I was sad. When you return from a happy dream to sad reality, there's a chasm you have to step across, and you can't cross it without shedding tears. It doesn't matter how many times you do it.Anonymous
About This Quote
The meaning of this quote is that dreams can sometimes be more real than real life. A happy dream can feel like it is the only reality in the world. The mind will try to convince us that our dreams are more real than the reality we live in. It tells us that if we close our eyes and listen hard, we can hear the songs of our dreams.
We can feel the wind of our dreams blowing through our hair. When we wake up, however, we'll see that these are simply stories put together by our imagination, and they are nothing but dreams.
