thought process in dreams

I like being able to remember my dreams, but I can't remember why I did certain things, and why I didn't question what needed to be questioned at the time.

For example, my recently deceased dog comes into my dream. I remember petting her and thinking "She look's great! so glad to see her again! she's just the same as she was!"

I knew she was dead and that I must be in a different existence or something but it didn't matter, I was just glad to see her. I never questioned where I was, how she was there or why. I just enjoyed the moment. It was like my logical, rational mind was blocked off for the moment and all I could do was enjoy myself. This bothers me, because in real life I am always analyzing and questioning asking myself the hows, whats and why's

You had it exactly right, during dreams the small section in the frontish middle of your brain is turbed off or blocked. This is the part of the brain that uses logic and allows you to consciously think about whats happening. Only in forms of lucid dreaming that part of the brain reactivates and you can realise your in a dream, and eventually control the dream.

Recently my mother in law passed away, now to say we didn't get on is an understatement she criticized everything I did, she told me I was common that I came from undesirable part of my town and that basically I was not good enough for her son, who equally didn't get on with her because she was an old tart. We always said when she died the family would get on better because she was a trouble maker, however since she died I repeatedly dream about her and in these dreams I'm telling her I love and miss her and that I'm sorry or arguing with her, this is very weird and I don't like it and it upsets me, and I have no idea why I keep dreaming the same dream so where you enjoy your dreams I hate mine.:cry:

Awe I'm sorry granny. Perhaps the dreams are your subconscious. You might be upset with yourself for never getting along with her and now that she's passed it's too late and now in your dreams your subconscious is attempting to have you apologize to her to help you forgive yourself and move on? Maybe think of it as a good thing rather than a negative and next time after having the dream, wake up and smile? :)

I remember when my grandmother was in the hospital,and right before she passed,I was dreaming I was sitting by her bed,she handed me a can of soda,and she had a cup,she told me to open it,so I did,I poured some of the soda in her cup,then she told me to stop pouring,and drink the rest,she took a sip,and then said I'm going to sleep now,I'll see you later,she layed back on the bed,and closed her eyes,thats when my sister called me,I woke up,and told me that she had just passed away.I dream of her all the time,and it's like she never left me,I often dream that I'm driving her around and talking to her,and in my dreams she is alive and well,another reason I look forward to dreaming just to see her again,but all I got left are pictures,I really miss her.
