Thread: Reality Check Moments

As I type this, I'm sitting in an airport waiting for a plane. I often dream about being in an airport, and have been careful to do reality checks while I'm here. I was sitting here watching something on the TV screen in front of me about a guy who had a dream that predicted a health issue. It didn't even occur to me to do a reality check for a few moments. In an airport, watching something about dreaming...sounds like a dream. But it's apparently not?

So weird. When I arrived at work this morning, a good song was playing on the radio and I had to turn it off before going in. When I got back out this afternoon, the same song was on! And it's not a song played too frequently. It was nice to finish it.

I was at Sam's Club this song was playing there. Also, my face felt really hot.

Lots of reality check moments this week!

I was at a biology conference. When I went to my hotel room and flipped the light switch, nothing happened. Dream sign right there.

Another day, I listened to a talk where the speaker used the phrase "reality check", and later another speaker was presenting a weird behavior he noticed in his research worms, and said that he asked himself if he was dreaming.

Then there was an experience of getting into a hotel elevator and it not behaving as expected - seeming to move on its own and not as directed. At one point I was stuck in the elevator (turns out you needed a key card to activate the elevator, and I was just riding along as it was being called by guests, lol).

Someone was showing me something and asked if Aloe a cactus but, I before could answer my mom's Goffin-cockatoo, Moxie screamed, "Noooooooooooooooooo!!" I ended up looking it up just to be sure and the little guy was right!! Totally did an RC... Thought I share.

Who knows!! That Bird may know more than he is letting on. Maybe he know the answers of the universe!!

I had a weird sort of synchronicity happen this past week, after which I immediately did a reality check (well, a few):

I was in the car with my partner on the way to a job and I was saying something about Dreamviews or someone from the forum. Just then, a truck goes past saying "ADA" in large white letters on the side, which made me think of "all-day-awareness" because of some recent posts here, and at the same time, because of the conversation, my partner gave me a sort of joking prod/tap while remarking something like "Are you still waking up?"

That's a lot of unrelated probabilities lining up for a single moment...
