I recalled a dream this morning, and I began to notice that on numerous occasions, the bizarre aspects of the dreams were corrected JUST as I began to question them.

Most of these corrections occurred while I was looking away momentarily, and I looked back to find that the abnormality had been normalised. For example, during the dream I noticed that a Teacher from my school was lying in my parents bed watching TV, I looked away for less than a second, while questioning this and than looked back to find that it was actual a family relation lying there. I carried on and noted it as my mistake.

Another example: I was walking down my road, when I noticed a young couple entering their car. Both the lady and the man entered on the same side and sat atop each other as if it was completely normal, once again, I questioned this while looking away momentarily and looked back to find that what I initially thought was a lady in a frock was actually a very young child sitting on the lap of her father. I carried on, and told myself that it was probably due to me not looking properly.

All of the times that these normalisations occurred, I was on the edge of lucidity. It seems that my mind wants to deprive me of it.

Has this every happened to you? (Oh, and sorry for writing so much)
