Last night I had a dream...
I dreamed I was on a ocean cruse but shortly after the voyage started something terrible happened. There was an explosion on the upper decks. Screams of panic filled the night air as people fled to the lower parts of the boat. All the rescue rafts where blown to splinters or sank to the bottom of the dark void below us. I must have passed out because when I came to I was in the cargo hold of the ship laying in a huge box of supplies... or what was left of them. In front of me I could see sky and the horizon. A huge hold was now in the side of the ship. Not low enough for the water to come in though. I got out of my box and wandered the cargo hold and saw many where injured or dead. Those that where still alive where helping those that needed it or at least comforted those that didn't. Some how the ship was still floating though what ever had happened to it. I never did find out. The way I dreamed this was in sections, almost like I was reading a diary where I only saw snippets of ever few days or so. As the dream moved on the ship actually broke in to two parts and sailed away from each other. I'm still not sure exactly how these two sections continued to float after the break up but hey, it's a dream.
The dream went on for quite some time. We on the ship had no way of making contact with land but we had the back end of the ship and the engine still worked to some degree and so we could make better time then the other ship half. As I mentioned, I only saw the goings on about the ship every few days or so like a diary, and the only things I remember most was spending time in my supply box. I do remember witnessing a murder on the ship, which had turned in to sort of Martial Law. I also remember myself and the rest of the survivors watching a whale get caught up in the ships propellers. It was a horrific sight. I don't remember much after that. Then I woke up and went to work.
My wife thinks I tap in to past lives when I dream because I don't have dreams where "it was raining chocolate sprinkles and then He-Man showed up and we did a puppet show". My dreams are quite epic... when I remember them that is.
Do you remember you dream last night?

FA+

Though on a side note, before I actually fall asleep, I can sometimes bring images into my head, and I'll feel my body move and react to what I see as if it was happening. Yet, I'm awake and fully aware of what I'm doing, or so it seems. The brain can make one think they're awake while they're asleep. Which is why I tested my theory with timing it, and placing an item that would move if I moved, and it check out. Guess it's before sleep paralysis kicks in.
That makes it somewhat possible for you to 'control' your dreams for a time...
I've had countless dreams that have foretold future events. The problem is that it only tells a minute or two of the actual future. After that I either wake up, or my wacky imagination takes over and has completely random things happening. (Like aliens invading Earth, which didn't happen when the events from the dream actually occurred.)
The fact I have those types of dreams makes me doubt the existence of free will, to be honest. If some of my dreams can tell future events, then the future must be predestined.
Of course, not all dreams I have are of future events. Some are just weird.
And yep, I can control my dreams. When a warm wind is blowing and the sun is shining, i can decide to levitate at will. Don't know how i'm doing, but i can do that from the age of 15 or so. Now i must make it in the real world too! Not much result in 10 years...
My Little Ponies?? WTF did i do to have dreams from them? Sure i browsed some furry pr0n and played some bondage-poker before bed, but to end up with MLP??? I'm messed up.
It's more a question about left-brain-dominance or right-brain-dominance...
Due to lack of sleep I can't remember which is which but one is better at logical thinking and reasoning and the other is better at abstract thinking. Artists of all kinds needs abstract thinking as that is part of a great imaginative mind and great fantasy...
And I would definitely say that you have an abstract mind...
Talking not stalking. If I were to stalk You I wouldn't mind talking to You! Rigth? *stalks away* Ooopsy!
*stalks the stalking bunny*
bizarre
must've had a stroke in my dreamial lobe
Anyway I know that feeling of seeing semi-realistic stuff happen in your dreams but not about yourself or anything happening in your real life. Sometimes I think I'm dreaming about people's lives that either existed at some time, or exist in another dimension (like an alternate me). Most of my dreams however aren't realistic but I've gotten some good writing ideas from my dreams. I write down the dreams I can remember in decent detail. Oh and naturally for being a furry I've had A LOT of furry dreams.
One i had was as i were runnign around inside a building with was all white and clean and every room had nothing and i coudl hear a distant voice as there is somone nearby, and i know i was looking for somone and looked in every room and it felt like a big hotel but everything was to clean and sterile, then reatch the cellar and walk in a long tunnel with pipes going everyware, to exit it and be of soem reason in a jungle with some people haning around with old army equipment and i asked the owner of a jeep to catch a hike to find somone before it got dark and i joined em in a long run in the jungle as it became darker. after that i dont rember much..
Thoe i dont think its past life but somehing your mind tries to prosess, something you are currently undergoing in your mind.
