interesting.... i don't know about the 105 years. I'd probably wake up insane lol. |

Time blurs, but you continue to age. It is relative, but it continues to march on without you. The brain still only operates so quickly, and when it's trying to actively construct dream scapes and interpret data, while committing it all to memory (a somewhat difficult task that actually makes a very good RC), you just aren't going to hit 105 years in an hour of real time. You can certainly try to influence your perception by skipping about, but you simply will not experience long periods of time exactly as you would in reality. You will skip things, miss things, etc. that your brain may or may not fill in later. |

"There's nothing better than knowing what it's like to fly like superman. Being fully aware of the air whipping by you, controlling every movement of every single atom in your body with a single thought. It's real freedom, and there's not a word good enough to describe it, so I'll just call it dreamy for now."
Time is not a human invention, because life is not a human invention, and time and life are the same thing. You could put yourself away in a black box for the rest of your life and have no sense of time...but you'd have a sense of age. You couldn't stop yourself from aging, first and foremost. But we keep time in numerous other ways as well. When we sleep, when we eat...all of it must happen at some point or else we die, and therefore time is something beyond humanity, not something created by it. |

Well, I won't say any more on that than this post, because it's a bit off-topic, but my dream in no way disproves Christianity...and I hope you'll reconsider it for yourself, not as a religion, but as a relationship. What was going on in my own dream was a result of some issues I had in my life at the time, but after hearing the lies of the G-Man and realizing that they hit at the very core of those issues, I was able to identify and eliminate them. So in the end it was a good thing, and not something that would cause me to believe something else. |

I've been doing a bit of googling and I've found a few other people that have experienced these things. Both of them have said that they have had dreams that seem to last anywhere from several weeks to a year but nothing as long as 105 years. |

I'm not on DV much these days, but I'll try to toss a cool dream or two into my DJ.

I think a lot of this has to do with false memories giving the illusion of a long dream. Sometimes I will have a short dream in which I have a long memory of living in a certain place, or being a certain character. The dream itself may only last an instant, but I somehow immediately know exactly what events led up to that instant. |

Indeed - false signals from the pons being sent to the sense-interpreting locations of the brain are what produce those dreams we think are so real, but it's all unreal. Our remembering of our dreams is true memory; our dreams themselves are false memory. |

I recall seeing a bit about the 105 year LD guy but I'm not sure that the website was that reputable, it had a lot of unbelievable stuff on it. |
|
LD Goals:
Fly
Destroy a house without using superpowers
Learn to swim(I can't in real life)
Unicycle(I can in real life)
Visit A Fantasy Land
Become invisible
The point isn't to slow down time in a dream but to speed it up. Like it's in fast forward but you don't notice a difference so it seems way longer than the time you slept. |
|
I just read your DJ entry and that made me wonder. Was that more than a dream? |
|
I have a cousin who is an avid LD'er, and says he has had dreams years long. I believe him (we are very close and have actually confirmed having the same dream before) and he says he did it by finding a clock shaped like his own heart and setting a switch on it to "super-slow". |

lol, i was gonna come in and answer this thread by saying it was and has to be false memories, but it looks like alot people already did that for me : P |

I'm sure you would be psychologically impacted if you actually dreamt a whole 105 years. |
