Where do I even begin?..

Well, over the past few years, I have developed a deep fascination for dreams. I love to remember the certain dreams that I have had and ponder about how our minds are able to make up such detailed things when we're unconscious. It seems so strange to me that nearly everyone I know is so oblivious of one of the most wondrous things that happen when we sleep, and nobody even likes to talk about it much. Only 4 times in my life, I have experienced some very abnormal dreams; and remembering every single one of them has inspired me to research more about them. That's when I found this place, and I was like, "Wow, I'm not alone!"
The reason I signed up is because I'd like to learn more from obsessed dreamers as myself, and hear about what you guys say about your dreams as well. Although the main topic may be about waking up inside of a dream, I still love hearing about normal dreams just as much. Rediscovering my passion for dreaming seems to have brought a new meaning to my life, and discovering this forum makes it all so sweeter.
