dreams

 

לז"נ הני תרי נשי דיתבן בגן עדן, רות בת ר' צבי יהודה ופעסיל בת ר' בונם ע"ה יום השנה ז' כסליו         ויחלם והנה       He dreamt and behold In the 40's while the Nazis were murdering  Yidden in Europe, Rav. Y.I.Herzog zt"l was in Bnei Brak and met with the Ponovezher Rov zt"l. The Ponovezher Rov showed Rav Herzog a large hill and told him he plans to build a Yeshiva for a few hundred בחורים on top of that hill. Rav Herzog responded with just one word "חלומות" (dreams). The Ponovezher Rov answered back " מען מעג חלומען אבער שלאפן טאר מען ניט "You are allowed to dream but sleep, you may not ." -----------------------------------------------------------------------   The (ספר חסידים (תמ"ז  writes, "if one dreamt a good dream (בשורה טובה) not to tell it to his wife. She might tell others and then the dream won't come true".
