Those heart-hammering nightmares that start to lose coherence even as you're waking up from them, but that still manage to leave their moldering fingerprints all across your day.

About This Quote

Nightmares are often considered to be the cause of some unsettling events in life. They can happen while you are asleep but can also happen while you are awake. The key to understanding nightmares is realizing that they are simply the result of your mind's inability to resolve an unspoken conflict. Nightmares are often caused by the subconscious mind's inability to accept an idea or situation. If this happens, then that idea or situation will remain in your subconscious and will eventually manifest itself into a nightmare.
