There was a time when I was really into dreaming. I kept a journal and it helped tremendously to make me remember my dreams better. I have lousy memory in general and I’m a night owl always sleep-depriving myself… These days I rarely achieve lucidity because I lack the self discipline to get up early and dream journal; it all hinges on that.
But dreams are the mystery hiding in plain sight, perhaps the greatest untapped resource in all of humanity… Access to our deepest selves and limitless exploration. Just days ago I had one where I could fly like Superman and the feeling was literally breathtaking, euphoric. It felt so real. In the dream I had all these problems; I was alone, living in a crappy apartment, my car had problems and my bills were unpaid… But I could just blast off into the sky and hover way above the city, above it all. The problems of life still weighed on me somehow, kept me from feeling as free as I actually was…I think this is the real life character flaw my mind was trying to tell me to fly away from
Anyway I think its awesome this ARG is delving into lucid dreaming. I hope there are more connections with it, and I’ve enjoyed reading people’s thoughts on this.
