What are you waiting for?
several times recently awoke sharply from deem REM sleep and came to a realization that I don't have identical dreams but rather a series of dream patterns that each seem to follow thier own similar path. its like my brain is re organizing my life experiences into groups of patterns and running me through simulations.
honestly, i find that illuminating but quite booring. is this me telling myself it is time for a change of scenery?
last week i had a lucid dream. i knew 100% i was in a dream and could do anything I wanted to but all the visiuals were so distorted that I wasn't in a stable recognizable space where i would be free to manipulate literally to my wildest dreams. it got really booring. then I didn't care and was just waking to wake up. what a waste! I felt really sad afterwards, this was probably only the ~20th lucid dream of my life.
on awakening i realized how important the visual component is to dreams. very interesting. perhaps my mind was telling me I was done exploring that sense and might find more satisfaction exploring others.
now what? dreaming sounds? touches? tastes? all in a vaccum of visual experience? surely I have done it before in the 4000 years of mo0dern human evolution. at some point I was blind. among a lot of other things.
speculation is fun but dont' hang your hat on it
