Level of Lucidity (1-10): 0 | Dream Signs: | Mood:
This thought ocurred to me as I was trying to sleep last night, wondering why obvious clues that I'm dreaming go unnoticed.
If who I am is the sum of my histories, my present, and the paths I'm on and the plans I have for the future, then who is this person in my dreams who leads completely different lives? Sometimes it's as if he has never lived my life, has rearranged my relationships, and he rarely questions the situations that the me who is ME would never accept. Is my dreaming me like me with alzheimer's, stumbling through the unfamiliar but going along because I cand think of what else I'm supposed to do? At what point, if you take away pieces of my past, ignore little parts of my current day, and plop me on a different path do I cease being ME?
No wonder I didn't have a lucid dream last night. I was up too late with these thoughts swirling around. And when I did dream, it was just me commuting to work, hoping that my not being able to find my clothes that morning wouldn't disrupt the meeting I was late for.
