so i always say to myself, i have to write down that event or this event….and as usual i forget too, especially with recording of dreams. So, dreams are really powerful and come to think of it kinda scary since they appear at your most vulnerable state. Come to think of it, whenever you drift off to sleep you leave your body to a world where the impossible just makes sense and pretty much guide your subconscience ‘life’ .
In general, i have a hard time getting frightened or scared in movies. In fact, a ‘gory’ movie to me would not seem very intimidating at all. However whenever i have a dream about a certain creature ( i really cannot desribe what manner of creature it was but it was scary) and the dream is quite repetitive with the same creature. Just looking at this beast, not only instilled a great sense of fear in me, but also echoed into my subconscience mind a picture of it, one that if i should even encounter something remotely familiar to it, the memory of the dream creature will instantly pop into my mind.
Another thing i hate to dream about is demonic related. However fascinating the subject of satanic rituals and such, the feeling of total separation from goodness and light are devastating to the soul. I have dreams where if i should stray from the good path and yell out in anger and curse, the sky and place suddenly grows darker and more menacing, and shadows become demons and little creatures emerge from the ground, hollowed-eyed and with an almost stop-animation movement but finally a huge shadowlike figure shrouded in dark fog suddenly lunges at me and engulfes me in darkness..i dont know why…but that feeling, of absolute terror and abandonment, is the ultimate horror i can ever experience, dream or no.
and when i awake, i feel like i was gone from home for a long time, as if i returned from battle to a place that i held dear…but somehow looks a bit different…feels a bit different.
like i said, dreams hold power which can change your perspective on things in the blink of an eye.

I really know the feeling, dreams can be extremely powerful. I can’t say I’ve had (as far as I cam remember) a dream as intense as the one you described, but I know a couple of times my dreams have affected my mood for the rest of the day because I simply can’t stop thinking about it and because it felt so real, no matter how weird it was.
I haven’t had a reoccurring dream in a really long time actually. What I think is more interesting though is how so many people share common types of dreams. Its almost as peoples minds become connected to each other in the subconscious state. I guarantee you most people have experienced a falling dream (especially the type where you actually feel like you’re falling and you jolt awake) and a dream in which they’re being chased by something or someone.
Lucid dreams interest me the most though, and its something I really want to experience myself. The ability to control your dream so well seems like it would be the ultimate experience. Just imagine, all you would have to do is think, hmm… I want to fly. And voila, you can fly and do anything you want. And no matter what happens, all you have to do is open your eyes and it all goes away. Hmm… maybe I will make my own blog post on lucid dreams now xD
