When I woke up this morning I was struck by what I had been dreaming about before I woke up. It was a bad night, honestly. I had one bad dream after the other and once I actually did wake up, I felt like I had barely slept. Why is that? If I'm actually sleeping, aren't I supposed to feel rested? Well, I don't. Oftentimes I can wake myself up from a bad dream, but the ones I had last night I simply seemed to be stuck in.
Just a few weeks ago, I saw the movie "Inception" with a friend. It was one of those movies that I thought about literally for days and days after. I was confused for much of the first half, but once I understood it, I was captivated at the idea. For those of you who haven't seen it, I won't spoil it for you. However, the idea of a dream within a dream within a dream is absolutely crazy to me! The thought of being trapped in a dream world and then not knowing what reality is...how scary is that? Whenever I dream, my dreams always are completely vivid, like I'm right there, right then. Which is how I think many people's dreams haunt them.
For the most part, I usually don't remember my dreams, but when I do, they're either extremely happy or extremely frightening and/or sad. I wish I could remember more of my dreams, because I think dreaming is fascinating in any form. On the other hand, maybe it's best if I don't. Who knows? Maybe I'd get sucked into real life versus dream life too.
