Dream Characters often represent an ideal. You go into few details, but it would seem to me from what I have been told, that your favorite Dream Characters are such ideals. Particularly as they can behave convincingly within the dream, the Higher Mind is very sure about their personalities and qualities. Indeed, the thing about some DreamCharacters is that one would think it better if they were the ones to wake up to the use of the Physical Body, and not the weak, flawed, tentative personas such as we are. In cases of Schizophrenia it IS the dream characters who are able to surface in control of the body. In that famous Black and White Movie "All About Eve", the denoument of the Movie was that the mousy persona eventually gives up to an Ideal Personality.
How many of us would, in our present personas, accept the sentence of our effective Persona Death, in order to step aside and allow an Ideal Personality to wake up in our bodies the next morning?
However, we can do our best in incorporate some of the best traits of our dream characters. In real life we cannot pick up too many of the mannerisms of our friends, because they would object to being copied. But a Dream Character might only be flattered.
And then my think has turned to the notion that by attempting to imitate Ideal Persona of a certain Dream Character, it may act as an invitation to attract their Inspiration -- it may allow them to surface, subtlely, not absolutely, to share their influence rather than imposing a Personality Coup suggesting of the above mentioned schizophrenia.
Dreamboat, it is not as thought your personality is universally hailed as perfect beyond all improvement. Perhaps you could shift toward being more like your Ideal Dream Character and less like yourself. I am willing to bet that within six months of such an endeavor, even your writing style would become indistinguishable from what it is now.
Your dreams are showing you a better man wishing he could get out and have a chance at the World. Well, let him.
