THE DREAM I often get dreams of my children dying.

THE REALITY These death dreams often had an impact on the dreamer and usually made him spend some quality time with his children. The dreamer was a roofer and during the roofing season he is often gone to work before the kids get up in the morning and home after they are already sleeping. Sometimes he goes weeks without seeing them for more than a few minutes a day. At the same time he was often having thoughts such as "I wish I had more time to see my kids" or " I don't know what's going on in their lives right now" or "They're growing up so fast and I'm missing it". He was seeing them so little that his relationship with them had almost died. THE INTERPRETATION dreams are sometimes like stage plays. They inspire emotions in you which you are feeling already. The death of his children was a symbol for the death of their relationship. He was seeing his children so little it was almost as if they had died.
