Winston's Dream of Death

Winston's dream was all about the last days he spent with his mother before she disappeared. His mother after his father's disappearance was described in the chapter as "spiritless". He regrets the last days he spent with his mother because he was acting selfish. This can be said during the time when he took a piece of chocolate from his sister's hand and fled downstairs noticing the looming expression his mother had when he looked back at her. That was the last time he saw his mother and his sister. This dream has triggered what he thinks is the dirty tricks the party plays upon people. The Party's tricks in his point of view was to persuade people that feelings don't exist in reality and at the same time steal away the power people had to change the world. This means that the party will prevent people from destroying their totalitarian government just by making people feel nothing towards themselves, other people, but feelings toward the party.

During chapter VII, Winston and Julia again talks about that sooner or later they will be caught and what the party will do to both of them if they either confess or not. the hope that Winston holds if they get caught is that Julia wont betray him and vise versa. If that happens, then their relationship between each other will diminish into pieces since no love is shown in a betrayal. Winston also mentioned that his feelings will always exist no matter what the party does to him. Even if the party changes his thoughts, he will still feel something out of that changed thought which Winston thinks is a big victory over the party.
