From time to time I have full on, recreate the Universe if I wanted to, lucid dreams. In these I have no doubts, no awkwardness with my control and a feeling of raw, connected power. More often, usually once or twice a night, I am in a dream that feels more like an actual location. As if I've fallen asleep in bed and allowed my existence in another world to continue. I encounter people and places that I've dreamed about for 20 years and experience new locations and characters all the time. I often wonder if these are other dreamers. Perhaps we've met ?

In these dreams I am free to explore. I do not change things or create situations, I simply roam and observe. I can if I'd like, I just choose not to. There is already so much to see and do. This is the culture of my mind, a geography and society in my dreams and they are some of my favorites.

Does anyone else have dreams of this nature ? Do you feel as though sleep allows you access to a place that still exists when you wake ?

More than likely this all exists in my own mind ; although the constant nature and feeling of time passing while I'm away ( awake ) makes me wonder sometimes. Sweet dreams, CL.
