Humans spend one third of lives sleeping and six years dreaming. A person usually has three to five dreams a night, although one may not remember his or her dreams.Many dreams, at least the ones we remember, are strange and interesting. Thats why most people believe that dreams must have some deep meaning or important message. However, people in different cultures have different understandings of the same dream.For example, when dreaming of fire, Chinese people think of money. The Japanese would say it means “trouble”.
