Dream is a sweet little word. It is generally said that a person cannot excel ever in his life if he does not have a dream. Still dream in a different variety may hell your life and it may hell your life for a very small period. You or your little child may have a taste of it. But you do not desire it.

You may see one shout in a sleep. You may also see him cry or quarrel or attempt to punch. No one has been able to find out the exact causes behind such behavior of some persons. A few hypothetical points may be cited. These are simply assumptions. These have not yet been verified in any laboratory.

You are sure to trace two features in such behavior of some child or adult. One has its origin in the physique and the second rests in the society to which the concerned person belongs.

If you go to any third world country or to any country where millions of people live below the poverty line, you will experience what malnutrition is. If you chance to find people in their sleep, you may notice that someone in his sleep is lamenting or uttering some words which nobody can comprehend. In course of time you will learn that they are sick and that they are weak and that they are under great stress. They get frightened seeing something during a sleep.
