Now the term dream recall is pretty straightforward. I know what it means sort of, but what I want to know is, why is it so important? I don't remember many dreams but when I do they usually stick with my for the rest of the day or so, unless it's a lucid dream (which I just had less than a week ago), then I remember it for a while. I'm still working on being able to maintain lucidity and all that but that's besides the point. Anyway, how is this important and how can I use it to my advantage?
