I was thinking about my dreams and my waking life this morning and it occurred to me that almost nothing that happens in my waking life happens in my dreams.

My dreams are full of people I haven't seen in a long time (old school-mates and such) and celebrities. They're always filled with adventures and magic and strangeness.

In contrast my waking life is pretty routine. I do mostly the same things every day with a little variation throughout the week.

So, I was wondering, when am I supposed to do a reality check when nothing dream like ever happens? I just do random RC's because of this and I think this could be why my lucidity is almost nil.

Maybe this is my subconscious mind telling me to stop being so boring!! Well, if that's the case, my subconscious should give me as much energy as I have in dreams!!!!!
