First I will say that from talking to other people about dreams all my life, my dreams do not seem normal, if there even is such a thing as normal dreams. However I do think everybody might have dreams like me but not remember them as well.

I have talked quite a bit about dreams on here because they are very important to me and my dream lives are just a real to me as this one. In fact I am usually aware of my alternate lives within dreams and while I am dreaming I am aware of this reality and while I am in the dream this reality seems similar to how dreams seem when I'm here.

I personally think they are alternate dimensions where the laws of physics are often different, which explains why they seem random, but while I'm there I remember this world as the one that seems different.

There are many universes I travel to and I have recurrent locations, people and events, just like I do here.

My question is if other people remember details like this.

I remember characters, places, names of people and things, stuff I read, events that happen, and importantly, music I hear.

As a musician about %80 of what I write was created within a dream. When I hear songs in my dreams I wake up and recreate the song. I also keep a dream journal and keep track of what I do. I draw pictures of what I have seen as well. My dreams are so real to me that they do effect this world (which is also a dream) because I have responsibilities in many worlds. People think I am being lazy when I insist on sleeping but it is the only way I can get important things done.

    That's the same for a lot of people, many famous songs had been heard in dreams, half the arpeggios I come up with is something either from a dream or upon the threshold of falling asleep.
    I often find that when I'm writing music I often write with my head, not buy my musical appreciation, I can spend so long and think so hard trying to find the next sequence or chord that I get frustrated and nothing comes, only for it to come to me when I'm relaxing with a coffee or laying in bed, I think a part of my brain I can't consciously access works on it while my conscious mind takes break, and the bastard always comes up with something miles better than the stuff I stress myself over

      My best ideas are random too. I don't seem to be as imaginative when I am trying. It just happens. This is very annoying when people try to get me to work with them and they don't understand I do this stuff randomly and don't like forcing it.

      I saw the other ones to which made me think of this one.

      A lot of my posts are inspired by other current posts.

    About half the time I do remember them as well, i wish it was more. My dream last night was full of words and even in other languages. there were posters and something about aliens being dead and things about injecting egg cells. they were in the style of those typical conspiracy theory posts; i meant to read them anyway, but i woke up before i could.

    One dream I remember from a long time ago had a few characters tell me as i was waking up, not to forget them, and come back to visit as soon as possible because they die every time i wake up. I just thought it was kind of funny (I think there was a commercial for sleep aids that went off a similar concept, my subconscious probably stole the idea from that). That must have been about 10 years ago but i still remember...

    I also dream about numbers and dates sometimes but i usually forget when i wake up. I was able to write one, and in the dream i was supposed to get fired from work that day, I don't believe in dream prediction but I wondered if anything would happen. only thing that did was a huge tree branch fell on the window by the break room while i was in there, so that was kind of interesting haha.

    things like that make me wonder if this life is any more real that dream life, it doesn't really feel like it to me... because of this i love sleep and if possible could be addicted to it...
