I had an interesting happening last night, I had a dream and since it seemed odd, and was in fact in a recurring location that only appears in my dreams, I did a reality check, and I falsely decided it was real. I didn't expect that because I thought remembering to do the reality check was the hard part. I have adjusted my reality checks accordingly. My typical reality check is that I look at my hands and count the fingers, then I think about the past 5 scenes that lead to the one that I am at. Oddly, in the dream I was able to recall a long chain of events leading to my being there, and I had the right amount and type of fingers. Now in my reality checks I will really ask WHY I am there, in this dream it made no sense for me to be in this place (the basement of an empty house) but I accepted it because I could recall how I got there and how I got to the 3 places before that, if I had asked what I was there for and what I was planning to do there, I believe I probably would have seen that it was a dream. Also I need to be more ready to accept that I'm dreaming, make sure that when I do a reality check, I am honestly considering that it may be a dream. Things are going well so far, just recalling so many of my dreams is like starting to discover a new world.
