Trouble Deciphering
I'm having a bit of trouble deciphering between if I am dreaming or thinking. When I am coming awake sometimes I am thinking about what I have to do (like pack a lunch, check the kids homework). This morning I came to thinking about a bill that I needed to pay and was actually doing addition in my head. I'm not sure if I was dreaming this or thinking it. Can anyone help me figure out how to decipher between the two.
Thanks

Dreaming = Thinking,
however:
Thinking ≠ Dreaming.
Whilst dreaming always requires thinking on some level it may not necessarily be cognitive. However, thinking happens in physical reality regardless or whether or not one is dreaming. Thus thinking does not always mean one is dreaming, simplified one can say:
Thinking does not equal (≠) Dreaming.
So it may be you were either cognitively thinking, or dreaming and thinking cognitively.
