This could be a lucid dream right now.....you have no idea if I am really a separate entity willfully controlling myself, or if I am just a figment or creation of your imagination or subconscience.

Needless to say, I think I think the same as you on this one.

lol, what? When I'm lucid dreaming, I know I'm dreaming. That's the only time I can do it. If it's one of those dreams that you don't know is a dream, I can't lucid dream because...I think I'm awake, you know?

Pretty much, the way I control my dreams is by willing things to happen. Like I tell myself something as if it's fact, and it will happen. If I don't believe it, it won't work. So, if I'm having a dream that I don't know is a dream, then I don't even TRY to will my dream to change, because I think I'm awake, and I can't change reality with will power, you know?

I believe we plan the lessons we need to learn but not how they are to be learned. Thats is up to our own free will.
Deja vu....OMG sometimes that is scary shit. I get that often and it isn't all because I am on the right path.

Lucid dreaming rocks. I figure if I can make my day dreams into what they are then surely I can do the same with my night dreams.

The only repeating dream I ever have is a dream that I haven't had in a long while until last week.

I have this dream that my dead brother is really alive but just doesn't want to see me or anyone in our family. Its so very sad and I end up almost in tears when I wake up. I used to have the dream constantly but have not had it for years now.

I seem to have it when I am going off track from my spiritually self and it is almost like my brother is saying that I am never gonna have any kind of repore with him if I continue down the path I am going. Thats is my own interpretation of it. I can't wrap my head around a random list of symbols that are supposed to mean this or that. Thats just too vague for me to put any faith in at all.

Like to dream about monkeys////That means someone is lying to you. ???? I dunno wikid. I think that is searching too deep. I never dream about monkeys because i'm not really too fond of them but if I did dream about them the last thing I would think of is that someone is lying to me. That kind of thing you just feel in your heart. At least I do anyway.

That's the way the "real" world works as well


I do know...and yes you can!!

lol, no, you can't. I can't will myself to be blonde, I can't will myself to be taller, I can't will my dead grandmother back to life....

lol, so what parts of reality are you talking about?

The ones you do have control over!!

You can't try to argue a point that your way of thinking is better by using unrealistic situations as examples of how things won't work..no shit you can't do anything about stuff that is governed by the physical laws of this universe.....yet!!

And just for the record, in the human body cells are constantly dieing off and being replaced by new cells.....so if one were to be able to control their personal programming or DNA I think you could change things such as hair color or height.....it just may take some time for your head to fully change colors....the height thing may be noticeable tomorrow. As for your dead grandmother...well that may take a little more doing. But of course the bottom line still is.......You have to believe these things are possible. Remember, everything is made up of energy at their most basic level. I think interpreting and interacting with that energy is fairly easy for most. And that just leads to the thought that if you can interpret and interact with something, you can manipulate it!!

lol, well no duh! I'm talking about in lucid dreaming when you can change EVERYTHING, like from the color of the sky to the person you're with, hell, even an entirely new dream if you want.

well, this is feeling a little too much like you're saying reality is relative. It's not. I mean, someone who's blind doesn't persieve that there is a wall in front of them with their eyes, but it's still there. If they ran into it, it would hurt, because it's really there.

I know my examples were a little over the top, but my point was that reality isn't relative, it can't be changed through will power. To change something in reality you need to take real steps towards making that change come about.
