Growing up, I always had dreams that I could controll or at least knew i was dreaming, so belief was never an issue for me. It doesnt sound that wierd if you think about it though. There are some people who can train thier minds not to feel pain, or even mroe simply learn to play an instrument. Our minds are powerful tools, and we can use them to our advatage. Dreams are the ultimate subcounis play groudn hwere we can become aware and do what ever we want .
