Thread: Finding yourself in Other People's Dreams

^^ What a great image.

Coincidentally, I had another "other people's dream" just this morning, and, though I was semi-involved in the plot , it -- in retrospect -- had a real sense of witnessing events "perpendicularly," as if they were passing by like distant traffic. The details were too precise for that wonderful headlights metaphor you offer, but I got a similar same feeling of watching another other dreamer project her visions before her, in full technicolor, and then I saw her "catch up" to her projections, consequences and angry DC's waiting in the dimming wash of her "headlight's" expectations. All from a distance, even though my dream body was in the same room with her.

Not exactly the same,I guess, but still a very curious experience!

Actually, your description is very much like what I intended to describe. The headlight analogy is a bit flawed, but the best I could come up with at the time.
