Night Pictures Behind My Eyes — Richard Belair

I am moved by dreams. Maybe you are too. Our dreams are an interplay of pictures and stories that blend within the confines of each of us. Those nighttime visions hold our feelings hostage, and then emotions enter when we cannot wish them away.

Each of us has our own dream experience, and your story is almost as unique as mine. When my friend awoke his three-year-old son one morning, the boy sat up in bed and said, Daddy, I had night pictures behind my eyes. Wow! How perfectly he described his sleeping journey.

I couldnt help myself enough, although I did, by borrowing that wonderful quote as the title of my own book. Herein lies both a fictional base and some actual events from the one persons dreams I know best, and you have yours too.
