Thread: Anything else i should start practising?

Yes some people ask the opposite question 'Why am I not dreaming'

The other day I was in a parking lot and I heard tires squeal, my head turned and I saw a car that had been parked in front of the store smash into the wall hard, then back up. I did do a reality check of course, but I was sure I wan't dreaming, because of presence of mind.

My first thought was the air bags didn't go off, but they could have the car was practically destroyed it had accelerated 6 feet into a stone wall, I was thinking move quickly to the driver warn them to get out of the path of the air bags and stay clear, you don't want to be looking for a pen to write down accident details and then find it and pull it towards your face just as that airbag your bending in front of goes off.

So ask your self why isn't this a dream instead. For instance on the bus, the layout was convincing and even tho the chairs changed they were fairly accurate. But what things could I have asked about the bus in a mental reality check, where is the bus number, where is route number, where is the clock and location LED, where are the mirrors, where are the ADDS (I am fairly sure it didn't have any of these). And one bit of stupidity, I know for certain that the windows I pushed my hands thru (both of them) did not have any writing on them, but the stupidity is that neither of them had red safety handles. Looking back it was pretty stupid to want to get off the bus, I didn't bother with prospective memory or I would have looked up at the sky. Why did I want to push thru the first window, because that's just what you do in dreams, but when it didn't work I looked for a bigger window, I should have looked for red handles and pulled them and just pushed open the thing, of course they weren't there but in a real bus, and with normal awareness I would look see the red handles and the instructions on the bus then look away and look back maybe thinking weren't those handles actually pink and where are the Chinese instructions? If I then looked back and saw red handles and only English and Spanish this would be the answer to why it wasn't a dream, in a dream expectation or difficulty reading would have likely occurred.

So try asking yourself why isn't this a dream, less likely to see a car drive into a stone wall for no reason and do a jump test and face plant in the middle of a parking lot.
