But they were more than enough for this kind woman.After war, she returned to England and was honoured for her service by Queen Victoria. But Florence said that her work had just begun. She raised money to build the Nightingale Home for Nurses in London. She also wrote a book on public health, which was printed in several countries.

Historically people thought dreams contained messages from God. It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams scientifically believing that they tell about a persons character. 17 He believed that dreams allow a person to express fantasies or fears, which would be socially unacceptable in real life.The second theory to bee popular was Carl Jungs pensation theory. Jung, a former student of Freud, said that the purpose of a dream is not to hide something, but rather to municate it to the dreamer. 18 Thus, people who think too highly of themselves may dream about falling; those who think too little of themselves dream of being heroes.Using more recent research, William Domhoff from the University of California found that dreaming is a mental skill that needs time to develop in humans. 19 Until they reach age five, they cannot express very well what their dreams are about. Once people bee adults, there is little or no change in their dreams. The dreams of men and women differ. For instance, the characters that appear in the dreams of men are often other men, and often involve physical aggression.The meaning of dreams continues to be difficult to understand. 20 If you dream that a loved one is going to die, do not panic.
