Do you Dream?

Dreams are unlimited. You agree, me too. Here, I don't mean about what dreams we've for future? What dreams imagines to meet. No. I just mean to say - the dreams you dreamt ever, even long ago.
I've often found scores of imaginative structures blend with landscape on an small iland. Some old and new structures shaking hands in the same premises. I, mostly find, difficulty in running. Does it all happens to you too?
Pl let me know about your experiences, by then I'm talking to others about their experiences.
