Dreams

In ancient times, people were sad seeing that dreams sometimes gave true good news and sometimes turned out to be completely misleading. People sent envoys to gods complaining "Why do dreams mislead us and drag us into wrong fantasies?" Prometheus answered the people saying "Dreams are free products of your sleeping mind; do not consider them absolute truths." People understood that dreams and fantasies are not a guide, but merely temporary games of the mind.

Those who take vital decisions relying on dreams they see, unfounded fantasies, and delusions deviate into wrong paths. Real life should be managed with an awake mind, logic, and concrete evidence. Living in a world of fantasies detaches a person from concrete realities. It is essential to rely on mind and logic, not to be deceived by dreams.

One who acts according to dreams and fantasies deviates from realities. A dream does not become a guide. One acting with fantasy remains on the road. Concrete reality relies on mind.

Succumbing to delusion breaks the decision. Awake mind is the truest guide. One does not live in a fantasy realm.
