Probably, but I'm sure there are more people. XD
lol I know! I do like the real-life sensations however, since they make the dream more memorable to me, makes it like another reality I am living in.

To balance things out, let me report my nightly goals that I have been setting for myself recently.
- Access to memory.
- I welcome in benevolent spirits and God. I'm interested welcoming more mystical experiences but in this case, I am leaving the masochist path behind. I'd rather give myself good experiences than bad ones.
- I want to meet some old wise characters. I find my dreams are filled with children. They are healthy now, whereas they were hurt before. So, my work with them has progressed well, but their presence shows my hesitation to grow up. I want to summon my mature, old wise self in dreams, as I mature and become an adult, free and powerful to take on responsibility.

All good things.
I guess that comes with perspective?
To me, what people refer to negative things is the positive ones.
For example, I remember a pretty nice dream where I literally fed a starving dog trapped in a yakuza's base my arm, I could feel while he was munching on my flesh and bones and all the pain that comes with it, but it felt pretty good and made me happy enough to endure it, since the little boy was hungry.

Dreams are just so diverse and beatiful overall, I like them so much ^^
