Dear Infinity,
Here is something you can try... the next time you have a lucid dream, look around at the Dream Scenary and then ask yourself what you remember about everything that you see. If you are anything like myself, and Lucid Dreamers tend to have much in common, then you will be hit with a flood of memories that have nothing whatsoever to do with your waking life, but which must be coming from out of an almost entirely independent life of your Dream Self.
You see, just because we wake up in the Morning, it does not mean that our Subconscious Dream Personalities simply evaporate into nothingness. Just because nobody is conscious of them, it does not mean that the Dreams don't continue to go on and on and on.
A few years back I was working on a jazzy piano riff for a popular song I enjoyed playing along with. Then I had other things to do for a few weeks. When I finally had a chance to get back to it, the ideal little riff simply poured out from my magic little fingers. Consciousness may be linear, but Mental Activity continues on and on and can operate below consciousness. We don't have to be conscious of what we are thinking in order to keep thinking. If a tree falls down in the forest and nobody is there to hear it, it sure as hell still makes a noise. Dreaming still takes place even when we are not sleeping. The Mind's Work is never done.
