Hey readers,
Welcome back to Tuesday's Takeaways!
This week our Top Quotes are about dreams! Based on this blog post's title, can you tell what we thought about asking? Here it is:
  • ​Takeaway trivia this week: What can one do to wake up from a bad dream where they feel stuck? 
​Meanwhile...
"I dreamt of castles in the sky
Of having all the things that mattered"
-Chaya Nachum, I took the shards

"Gasping, I awaken, pulling myself out of the inky black,
out of the landscape of my dreams.
The fear, the emotion lingers,
Even as the memory slips and fades away…"
-Naveera Arif, Nightmare

"Mangled limbs and mutilated dreams:
Who is she that convinced you that you were free?
Comatose but you woke me in my sleep.
Winding through those long dark curtains,
Haunted you and haunted me."

-Nicole Solis-Ramirez, Julio 

"I dream
Of an escape from the grainy air
Clutching my aura, as the voices inside my head
Constantly cry for help 
Grasping for a way out"
-Saelly Alvarez, BEYOND THE CLOUDS 

"Silence.
How long must we scream?
"The diadem of a dream that’s long since gone under
Is all we have left to cry about
But you still don’t see."

-Bethany Friedmann, SILENCE 

"She created
Her own universe
In her head.
She lived in fantasies,
​She drafted herself."

-Ana Khutsianidze, LOST IN HER OWN UNIVERSE

"My dreams are too big to fit onto the main road.
I’m paving my own zone, unfold my destiny slow and steady"

-Anya Supernova, Taking the scenic route
And now...
If you are feeling stuck, recognizing that you are in a dream (aka lucid dreaming) can help get out of nightmarish situations because this type of dreaming is more controlled. However, achieving a state of lucid dreaming is not always easy and takes a lot of practice. Some other tips to escape a nightmare include testing actions that are physically impossible (sticking your hand through a wall, time traveling, flying, etc.) or triggering an adrenaline rush by doing an exciting action (jumping off a cliff, etc.) 

Make sure to stay tuned for next week's blog! <3
