Dream of Mouse And Mice Meaning

Who's the mouse? Just like the mouse in your dream we must control our actions and take control of how we live our lives. I also feel that maybe you have been hiding away from the world. We all do that. I do that. It is a defensive tactic when things are not quite what you want them to be. I’m here to let you know that you have the power. You are not the mouse. What you do now from this very moment can shape your life. You will be grateful you got this dream as this is your time, your start to get out there and focus on this moment.
