Dream

I was told about this dream a friend had yesterday, I would like to recount it for you, I wish I had dreams this vivid.

In the dream my friend felt very empty and knew he had to find something, he needed this thing to fill him, to fill the emptiness and longing, he was searching everywhere for it, but could not find it anywhere. Then he saw a light, like a light that reflects off of something, like off of glass or water, he could see it from afar, and knew he had to get to it, that was what he was looking for, so he rushed towards it, but on his way there, he passed a beggar, and the beggar pleaded with him for help, but he couldn't stop, he had to get to this light. When he got to the light, there was just a pane of glass, it had been a reflection, so he ran off to find the origin of the light, and once again passed the beggar, but he couldn't see the light, until he realised it was the beggar.

Cool dream eh. Is our focus in the right place? are we looking and missing the real need? Loads of questions that one throws up.
