Yes. That’s why I keep a dream journal. It’s amazing what bubbles to the surface of your memory if you have the time to think and write it down. I try not to say “I didn’t dream last night” anymore, since I figure we all dream every night. The memories just fade so ridiculously fast that it’s hard to tell sometimes.
Constantly. I always feel as if I have lost something great and if only I could remember, all my dreams would come true. Logically I realise this is probably not that case..
Have you ever had dreams which feel like memories? Those creep me out the most. I think back, and sometimes I can’t tell if I was dreaming or awake. It’s not exactly a fun feeling.
I’ve heard that people have gone insane trying to decipher their dreams. I figure if I’ve gone insane, then it won’t bother me whether the dreams are real or not. It won’t matter either way.
Agh. Sorry. I wrote the last post while I was schnookered (to use a cute term for “trashed”). I didn’t mean deciphering, just that people who study lucid dreams have an inability to tell after a while what’s the dream and what’s reality. At least, that’s what my mom told me about 10 years ago, so I don’t know if that’s true or what. Anyway, thought I’d clarify.
So many, many times. What’s worse is waking in the middle of the night and interrupting a good dream…and you can’t get it back.
However the most important dreams, those that are trying to speak to me, stay fresh in every detail for many years. Those are the ones I look into, because I know if they stay with me it is me talking to me, or God trying to communicate something important.
all the time! however i think this is exactly the beauty and charm of dreams. what fun would they be if they were forever perfectly tangible?
no fun at all.
they are not meant to reside at the surface. the pieces that return are reminders that we have more than just one plane of existence (and i find that comforting)
It happens a lot and it always makes me feel even more directionless.

yes
but usually
i sporadically remember bits and pieces
of my dream
throughout the day
it’s like a little surprise
and when i do get these little flashes
of past dreams
i try so terribly hard to remember the rest
but
nope
that little flicker is all i get

…maybe I’m already halfway there.

Love the disappearing flower here.

Yellow is supposedly a memorable color.
The only dream I remember is the one where I dreamed something then forgot about it when I woke up from the dream I don’t remember.

beautiful drawing.
this happens to me all the time. I’d tell you more about it, but I can’t remember. it was really cool though, I promise.
‘Sweet dreams are mede of these,
Who am I to disagree?
I travelled the world and the seven seas.
Everybody’s looking for something…’

Have you ever woken up with a dream you wanted to remember, but lost it an hour later?
Yes.
Not so before but there came a point when this became true for me.
But then again, I realized one thing.
Even if circumstances force me to forget…
With one word, one trigger…
the scenes, the reel, the entire dream…
I begin to remember.
