Seems like your dreams just don't have a lot of clarity or you aren't recalling them very well so they may be like old memories or just what I said first.

Lucid Dreams in my case are more vivid than life itself, I wouldn't exactly say it's a revelation it's just "Oh I must be dreaming" or at least in my case may be different with other people. Yes you can think clearly in a lucid dream.

Welcome to the site and have yourself some fun.
