At midnight he awoke. He said to Enkidu, “What happened? Did you touch me? Did a god pass by? What makes my skin creep? Why am I cold? Enkidu, dear friend, I have had a dream, a dream more horrible than the first. I looked up and a huge mountain loomed, it threw me down, it pinned me by the feet, a terrifying brightness hurt my eyes, suddenly a young man appeared, he was shining and handsome, he took me by the arm, he pulled me out from under the mountain, he gave me water, my heart grew calm. Dear friend, tell me, what does this mean?” Enkidu said, “Don’t worry, my friend, the dream you had is a favorable one. Again, the mountain stands for Humbaba. He threw you down, but he could not kill you. As for the handsome young man who appeared, he

Ondaatje begins the book with the revelation that he has had a "bright bone of a dream" (21). The dream is of his father, surrounded by jungle and wild dogs. The "dream" that Ondaatje speaks of is more a nightmare, the chaos of it startling him into wakefulness. Siemerling states, "In this beginning of Ondaatje's exploration, the father appears to the narrator 'chaotic, surrounded by dogs' (Siemerling 144). This is in contrast to the account of the actual event that influenced the dream, given much later in the book.. In the retelling of the event, Ondaatje specifically states that he "cannot come to terms with" this story of his father (Siemerling 149). The retelling is much more grave than the description of the dream. As Siemerling states, "While the initial dream's association of his father with chaos and the jungle … 'The Bone' offers an account in which 'this scene had no humour or gentleness in it' (182)" (Siemerling 150).

Daniel Solove writes in his article that the “nothing to hide” argument is a terrible argument, because privacy is important to everyone and everyone has something to hide. Solove writes that if you break the argument down to its core the argument means nothing. Solove addresses the argument for the “nothing to hide” belief by stating why some agree with the argument because the argument can be protection against acts of terror, then describing how the government knowing everything on someone can cause plenty of problems as he describes. Solove takes the explanation of privacy to a place that most people ,if not all ,can relate to just to define privacy more than the general consensus. Solove gave a few
Back at home, he dreamed about severed limbs and fire and the intestines of Jody Booth, a friend who had died beside him in a field outside of Danang. He dreamed about pigs being strung from a rope and gutted alive and he dreamed about a young boy who looked up at him as if to ask, ‘Why?’ (Bergen 26).

“What are we going to name him? It will have to be a name befitting the child of a sun god and a daughter of the moon. When is he due? I’ll have to start working on a crib, and write to my mother.”

But he told me again, “You must return.” She woke up a short time later and didn’t know what to think about her experience.
After Shamhat performs her love-arts with Enkidu, it is evident that he is much weaker and no longer able to run wild with the animals, however, he has grown in mind. This exposes the true extent of the power of women, and how women can transform a man, stripping the wildness away, and introducing the humanity and civilization of humans. Furthermore, Enkidu returns to Shamhat as opposed to leaving to go elsewhere in the wild, revealing that he has indeed changed in fundamental thinking of his mind to accept that he can no longer live wild and must
The swarthy dark prince of darkness and night again got the same dream. which he was used to watch once a week. An unusual and unreal type of dream. He saw a girl standing in a deep forest like lost in between red roses, drowning in a violet sea, with huming bees and laughter of birds all around and kneeling into golden soil with bare toes digged into sandy soil. She was the only beauty he have ever seen. Her long silky black hairs with winkling sparkle on them was like stars twinkling in a dark night. Her bright white face covered by hairs was like moon hiding behind
On a dark and quiet night, Kamalu had a strange dream of him being the king of the sea and over taking Hi’iaka I Ka Poli O Pele, who was the goddess of the ocean. He dreamed of a battle between him and Hi’iaka, and he had won. He instantly woke up from his dream and thought that his dream was silly and that he could never defeat a goddess, but he also thought that if he told everyone about his dream, he would become royalty. So he sat in his bed all night thinking about the story that he would tell the villagers. He waited for the sun to rise so he could tell
Anaru woke up covered in sweat, the ground was cold and hard. He had just had a terrible nightmare. He had had the same nightmare three nights in a row. Every time the same thing happened, he was swimming in the river, the water was always jet black and every time a group of eels would bite into his leg. Using the rows of hooked teeth in their mouth to hold his legs tight. Then they would start to pull him under water, every time he would fight with all his energy, but every time the eels would pull him under, and just as he thought he was going to die he would wake up. He knew that these reoccurring nightmares had to mean something so he went to the village elder and explained what was going on, “every time I go to sleep I have the same nightmare, the eels they attack and kill me, what does it mean,”
