Are dreams the result of a troubled soul?

no

Dreams are the things which our conscious mind while awake , does not, or, will not, surface.....within a dream, we can face fears, enlightenment, etc.,. better, and we learn from them.

Nightmares, however, may be a whole other thing. :)

You are asuming that everybody that dreams has troubled souls. Children have troubled souls? Even animals have been proven to dream....so they too have troubled souls? What the hell is a "troubled soul" anyway? Please define that silly term.

I think dreams a bit like a computer defragging. It’s the mind’s way of cleaning up and ordering information.

No
I think they are the way the brain processes information seen but not processed.
In any given moment your brain is aware of your surroundings. You notice things but do not process everything because not everything in every situation needs to be processed for that given situation.If we even tried to process every detail we would literally go into sensory over load. But your brain takes in all the info and stores left over information. I think alot of that information is processed in our sleep. Maybe not that day but eventually...and I think the information maybe jumbled up even quite a bit.

I also think dreams are a great way to problem solve. I know that there are times I am working on something so hard I go into overload. Yet I am often able to work on the problem in my sleep and have an answer to the problem.

or a happy one...

no, they're the result of random neurons firing off randomly in my brain

Too much pizza.

Well I hope not because I would be the most troubled soul out there.

no they are windows to the dream realm........a place were what you wish exists exists and space and time a ridiculus concept.no good dreams symbolize the best of life bad ones symbolize your inbalance in life.

dreams are windows to the soul, If you pay attention a lot of answers will come to you through dreams.

No.
To be realistic, they just form from the deepest corners of your mind.
Another way to think of it is that they're messages sent from a holy being (whoever you wish).

no, everyone dreams every single night
