The trick here is to work on your dream recall a bit. One of the best ways to do this is to keep a dream journal. Every time you wake up and can remember anything at all, even some insignificant detail from a dream, write it down. You'll often find that you remember more as you write. If you don't always have time for this, like me, try doing a similar thing in your head. Just find that one little thing, and start to narrate the dream to yourself while you get dressed, eat breakfast, or whatever it is you do in the morning. And one more thing: it helps to fall asleep with the intention of remembering your dreams. Try repeating \"I will remember my dreams,\" or something similar, in your head a few times before sleeping.
I disagree with your answer. Yes, it is true that we dream MOST of the times, and we forget about it. But when you are home from work, basketball/football game, or party, you get really tired. Once your tired, you just go straight to sleep. Your mind doesn't want you to dream because you had a exhausting day and your mind wants you to rest instead of having dreams. By the way, my brother saids that if we sleep without dreaming, in the morning you will feel good as new. But if u dream, then you would feel tired like "Oh i don't wanna go to work/school today."
