do dreams really become reality?

I seem to feel very, very uncomfortable around crowds of people. Why could this be? I tend to want to stay away. If I do end up being in an area that is full of people, after while I don't feel as uncomfortable. It doesn't even have to be a huge crowd of people. It can be as simple as a few people at my house. I don't know why this is and I often find that ends up keeping me away from friends and family. Any sort of help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I've been playing poker for a while now, but only recently, playing with a couple of my friends( all from different part of the world) I have had a different opinion of the game. I could tell who was a bluffer, who was a spender, who was conservative, and who was born to be poor, who would take bribes in exchange of favors, and who would colaborate with the leader on the table. I've started analyzing who made alliance with who, based on the countries they were from, and in most case, it all made sense. Although I was the second player with the most chips, I still lost by intimidation. The way the table was set (round , looking like the world), it seems like the leader owned the world (with his chips taking 3/8 of the whole table. I also have to say that the leader of the table come from a rich country and is used to money

How it possible that someone shows no compassion for someonelse unless its for their own benefit? How can people not show how they feel for what others have done for them and then treat them like crap? Why are people so F%#!ed up!!!

Dont you think it's part of our creativity and mental ability to judge things and decide wheather it is right or wrong for us? Now if you think we should judge then dont you think we can never judge right because we dont know the other person's situation? Then what should we do?

Are most people going to be inclined to work harder and better if they fear their boss and others around them, or if they respect them.

Fear of losing ones' job is a strong motivator, while respect is transient....

Thoughts?

Why is it that in our world today there are thousands of people dieing thousands suffering and thousands being oppressed. Yet people talk about big brother are they not living in the real word. Why not ask when is oppression in Zimbabwe going to end or why are children dieing of starvation when there is so much food.

When a rich person stands on their roof-top naked playing the bagpipes it's called "eccentric", but when *I* do it they call me "CRAZY!?"

I'm thinking, possibly, the body has a gender and the spirit is an inner being. I could be wrong. What do you think?

Why do people lose their appetite whenever says something gross when they are eating? I'm not sickened whenever people do that. I will actually listen and it doesn't bother me at all.

My friends are skeptical that the subconcious mind can tell the future while i on the other hand have been able to prepare for set backs and fights, confusing and odd situations. Do you think that dreams actually do mean something?

Possible theories/explanations, anyone...?
Am I like, chosing wrong, or for the wrong reasons, or do I have a fear of relationships--- what is going on?!
I have a history if this exact pattern but I can't control it because I dont understand it....!
