Beit Midrash
- Torah Portion and Tanach

In biblical times, fateful decisions were made according to dreams, the dream is actually an expression of one's inner aspirations. The dream integrates the innermost parts of the personality with overt conduct. Nowadays, we do not take our dreams into consideration directly, but sometimes they can reflect to us where our emotional world is – what is your dream?
Here is some good advice: before going to bed, turn off the cell phone, study a religious text for five minutes (I learn "Mesilat Yesharim" [Path of the Upright by Rabbi Moshe Chaim Luzzatto]), do some soul-searching with yourself for another two minutes, and then, as a last thing before going to bed, say the Bedtime Shema – and you will find that your dreams will be clearer and better. Even if the day had been the most challenging and hurtful in your life, and even if a more challenging and hurtful day awaits you tomorrow – the dream will heal you.
