Has anyone ever noticed a tread to their dreams, I notice that my dreams swap perspectives between first person and third.
It wasnt until my most recent dream that i realized that it mihht be a tool to shield the dreamer.

Anyone else notice a trend that might be linked to drawing you out.

Here's another angle to think about. Note that our formative learning is all about the blend of this: our internals growing and being figured out, and all the outside learning is effectively "3rd person" as we watch and analyze others, and so this makes sense it would translate to us in this way. When we need an outside perspective "looking inward", then what we see feels like 3rd person. :) I'm quite sure we shouldn't look at it as a "shielding" rather than a "learning" (what we can compare, how it looks to how it feels, and draw vital understandings from these comparisons).

As for other trends, I used to hunt for patterns like a determined scientist, and then I would keep having dreams that would disrupt what I thought I saw, as if the dreams were proving to me they will not fit into those "boxes". Cheers.

I do enjoy the thought of dreams willfully being wily about what it wants you to notice. *laughs*
I am unsure how to process the dreams ive been having lately and just wished to amuse myself with others dreams, connect to scraps of humanity that i am familiar with.

Oh ho, you just summed up your highly limited thought process for all to see. Good job! I'm certain you feel more clever and accomplished by doing so. Look, people, it's communication from the low-brained -- it even types! :LOL:

But since this can be a place of cooperative second chances in the *true* productive, additive spirit of humanity: Will you describe in detail what you thought was lame and why, and how, in your opinion, it can be improved upon? If it helps, envision this as a test of your humanity (which, unlike what some teach, isn't what you are born with but must develop to honestly claim). Which will you choose to be: human being or merely a low-value consumer?

I'm just trying to get removed and or blocked/Banned from this forum. They still do stuff like that right?

Heh, well I'm guessing you'd have to do more than be a failed troll, because social-shared goodness is the job of all who can benefit from it, not just a moderator with a banhammer. 🔨😇 And the well-minded mods with that ability are reluctant to use it even when they feel its necessary because they sense that the harm must be self-correcting or not really corrected at all. People have to evolve away from being poo-flinging monkeys to gain the true value from their life experiences, and it's certainly true in the digital spaces.

Rather, the shared goal is to get value from this place, and that is something done by setting a micro-culture of intolerance for fools and the otherwise mentally dysfunctional. Of getting them to *see* their failures and understand there's a much more beneficial way to act. In other words, practice your dysfunction somewhere else if you must, or better yet, *solve* your dysfunctions and embrace your potential. Bring only your wild dreams and most thoughtful input to this site, and it becomes a wondrous place with an echo of those mind-boggling dreams. :)

And by the way, this is actually a theme I have noticed in my dreams: the progress and benefit of finding ways to work together. Just last night I had a dream where I was feeling tension/competition with my ex-wife's new husband [though none of this is true IRL], with me worrying that he wasn't good enough for her (the woman I stilled loved dearly enough to want the best for her even though that wasn't me), and the new husband feeling threatened by our history and bond (me and my ex). But we forced our way through the awkwardness (at a backyard cookout, I think), and I got to see how he might be just what she needed and he could see I had no intention of disrupting his marriage. When the ex-wife saw our smiles, relaxed posture, and handshake, she ran up with a huge smile and threw her arms around us both. It was a pleasant way to wake up, and an interesting scenario to experience vicariously.

I don't think this is the appropriate place to discuss this. I only posted what I did in hoping it would have the desired effect and honestly your attempts at insults are wasted on me. I will not try and return jabs with anyone here.
