The Value of Dreams
Dreams are a fascinating subject. Many psychologists today say that dreams are the bridge between our
conscious and unconscious mind. They suggest that you try to write down the dreams that you remember as soon as
you wake up. Then, you can try to interpret them by comparing the dream with situations in your life. (Most
dreams relate to things that happened in the past 24 to 48 hours.) Sometimes dreams may explain things you are
trying to suppress; other times they might relate to things that are troubling or depressing you. In general, dreams
relate to familiar events and have reasonable explanations. If you are receptive to this kind of analysis, answers will
tend to emerge. Most researchers also agree that the dreamer himself will usually come up with the best
interpretation of his dream since no one else has had his exact experiences.
71

Coca-Cola
People who lived in towns and cities could easily refresh themselves in the hot summers just before the turn of
the century. Coca-Cola had been invented in Atlanta in the 1890s, and it was for sale at thousands of drugstores and
candy store soda fountains all over America. But people who lived in the country couldn’t easily go into town
every time they wanted a Coca-Cola. So Joe Biedenharn, a candy store owner, decided to take soda out of the cities
and into the country, where most Americans lived. He began to fill big bottles with Coca-Cola, shipping them by
wagon and boat to the small towns along the Mississippi River. His business grew quickly; the bottled coke was so
popular that Biedenharn was forced to move his bottling plant to a large building. Ironically, the first bottling
operation was viewed as a curiosity by the Coca-Cola Company. Biedenharn sent them his first two cases; he was
politely thanked and then just politely ignored.
76
