Re: baking reality

Ah, no, I know what you mean - in ways both concrete and philosophical.

Concrete - I have very vivid dreams, and sometimes a day or two later will recall a snippet - say, a conversation I dreamt I had with my husband - and sometimes I actually have to verify with him whether we actually talked about it or I dreamt it.

Philosophical - these very vivid dreams can sometimes have a tremendous impact on me - they might bring some idea out of my subconscious, or have an emotional impact - I never consciously realized before how deeply a certain small incident affected me. If the dream - which felt sooo real - helped me in dealing with that incident, why is it any less real than the actual incident that spawned it? And why should it make a difference?

Hypography?
