between humans and apes? I read people saying that humans and apes share a common ancestor and apes are not our ancestors. So I want to know what is the name of this common ancestor and what did we eveolve from.

I had a dream that i took a pregnancy test in my bathroom, left it on the sink, came back and saw two pink lines. I then woke up from my dream for a second. Then, I went back to sleep. I don't remember the exact details, all I remember is having another positive pregnancy test in my next dream.
What could this mean?

I've had this very graphic dream a few days ago and i was wondering if it had any meaning at all.

So, me and my friends are at this new years eve party and so is my crush. A few hours into the party the lighting got messed up and started sparking, so everyone started to leave and it was chaos. My crush was driving away from the party but then someone crashed into him and he was really messed up. His bones were broken, he was bloody and he was unconsious. Somehow I got him into my car and drove him to a hospital. This was odd becuase in the dream my crush has a girlfriend, but i was the one taking care of him. But the weird thing was that I took him to my old elemtary school's nurses' office. Then i woke up.

I have no idea what this dream means but it was so graphic and i have been thinking about it so much, which is so unusual i usually dont have dreams that i actually remember, so that's why i think this dream may have meaning to it.

Thank you!

My 3 year old daughter spent all day with my father the day before he died. My father passed away 2 days ago. His body was taken to the chapel of rest the same day. Today, I had to go to the chapel, to pay the deposit for his funeral, On the way there, I picked up my daughter and told her we had to go and pay a few bills. As we pulled into the village where the chapel is, my daughter pointed at the building and said "Do you know who is in there, My Garndad". There is no way she could have known this, it has never been mentioned in front of her and she would not have known what the building was. The hairs stood up on the back of my neck, and it has really got me thinking. I have asked her how she knows and she has just said cause she did. Does anybody have an explanation for this?

These could be things which you hope are invented in the near or far future.

I've asked these questions before, but helps to get advice from new people. My girlfriend has BPD. We seperate because of it, almost once amonth. She is a sweet beautiful person, then she turns the opposite, she's bad with me, eats away at everything I do. We are apart right now I have a hard time with it. She knows she has the problem and wants to stay away from me, instead of working on it. She trys to blame it on me but now she's coming to realizm that its her. What do I do at these apart times. Should I contact her in anyway. I know the desire and love are there for me, but she hides them. Then she calls and her whole outlook changes. Are there any secrets I'm missing?

pretending to be something your not ?

plus you feel that there going around misportraying you to people trying to make people socially reject you or influence them to reject you.....rubbishing your character.


unfortunatly, ive met many people in my life like this- and regretably, they always make me very angry, where i actually have the urge to physicaly assault them....punch them right out.

but obviously, you cannot react this way...nooo...of course not....and with it being xmas to...wouldnt be festive of me would it ?

so what is the best way to handle people who consistently do this ?

thankyou

They say time is an illusion, yet our life is based on time. Life is a perfect circle, like clockwork, yet a clock is based on time. They say everything is a distraction from knowing you're actually just wasting time.

I was thinking the absence of the plague for social, but quite lost on factors of cultural and economic. I need reasons that led to and sustained the pop. growth.


Thanks

I'm asking this question because all my life I have been one of those people who cant stay still in bed and constantly talks while asleep. The weird part is that often when I blurt something out it ends up being an insult. Sometimes I would even swear and be mean which is something I rarely do while awake. In some cases I have had conversations with people standing next to me and was rude to him/her. I don't have any memory of most of this happening and the only things I can remember saying are "Come here you little...!!" or "Stupid!" or even "Plastic bag!". My subconscious must be a jerk lol. Also I kinda have accidentally hit and gotten uncomfortably close to the ones I was having to share a bed with at the time.
What do you think might be the cause of this happening?

Last day i dream about snakes, Snakes are chasing me, i see snakes everywere and im trying to kill them. When i woke up i search in the internet (dreammoods.com) the meaning of my dream. Weeks ago i saw my mother texing all the time until now, she doesnt even want me to hold her phone anymore..but this night when she's sleeping i opened her phone (i know its her privacy) but theres something pushing me i cant explain. but then im shocked that she's calling someone MY LOVE..and when i read her sent messages it says "I THINK YOU CAN WAIT WHY UR N A HURRY?" " I NEED TO SLEEP IM BOTHERD LOVE JUST GIVE ME TIME TO THINK"" IM NOT READY LOVE" and as i read the other messages i found out that the one she's calling LOVE is a POLICE MAN. my mother and father are seperated but these things make me worried especially when read about the meaning of my dreams.. btw here's the meaning

Snake
To see a snake or be bitten by one in your dream, signifies hidden fears and worries that are threatening you.? Your dream may be alerting you to something in your waking life that you are not aware of or that has not yet surfaced. The snake may also be seen as phallic and thus symbolize dangerous and forbidden sexuality. The snake may also refer to a person around you who is callous, ruthless, and can't be trusted. As a positive symbol, snakes represent transformation, knowledge and wisdom. It is indicative of self-renewal and positive changes.

I had a dream that I am watching from a calm end of the shore, and huge waves, getting larger by minute are fast approaching and then crash into a brick wall. This wall is not very high but very long, covering the entire length of the sea till horizon. As the waves crash to this brick wall, I could feel tremors like everything around me is shaken very hard. I am just standing and observing this happen repeatedly from the side.

Last night, I dreamed that I drove myself to a city in the mountains. I wanted to eat at a Sonic that I ate at as a kid in my dreams, so I mean I had been to that city and that Sonic in my dreams before. I drove around trying to find it, then finally found it. When I got there, I got mad because the building was surrounded by police tape and it appeared closed. Then, I noticed people were still ordering from the counter. So then I went and ordered some food, but it wasn't like a normal Sonic; it had a cafeteria style line where they scoop your food for you. I ordered a Sonic Burger, and got some mashed potatoes with chili on them. Then, this is where it gets crazy. Somehow, I started reaching in my pants and discovered I had a vagina instead of a penis! I am a guy, and was me, a guy, in the dream, just with a vagina. And only at that part. I was worried about the salt on my food gettting in my underwear or something.

My mum thinks that a girl should know how to cook. I am 16 and my brother is 18. She tells me to get his dinner ready when he is perfectly capable. I say that I just don't enjoy cooking and she says 'well you can't do the gardening, but your brother can do both'. She has never made my brother stand in the kitchen ever because she can't 'make a boy do such girly work'. She is really sexist and says both genders 'have their separate duties' and 'you're a woman so you should know how to do a woman's duty'. I mean WTF?

I think in the future we will see many more people of mixed ancestry, and I'm curious to know what people will look like. In my life I have had personal aquaintence with several multi-racial people, but I think they all had one parent who was full-blood something. I wonder if two multi-racial people have children, will all the children look the same, or will the children show the diverse genetic heritage differently?
