Thread: The "Oh, I do that all the time," response.

Well, try this on for size, Go to a cow and say, I saw this train . . . yada yada, and of course, you will hear the cow say, yes, I see them all the time. The distinction is not if or if not anyone else does anything, but what you personally abstracted from a given experience.

Meaning. . . . . is how an experience applies to you and your life.

You may as well try to tell someone how absolutely gorgious oatmeal, raison, cinnomon, honey cookies are.

True friends share common goals, and amiable abilities to achieve them.

The depth of communicative exchange between any two individuals is proportional to the distance they plan on traveling together.

For some reason I brought up lucid dreaming with my boss while on a long business trip together. He seemed confused. He said something like " you mean you don't usually know you're dreaming while you're dreaming? That's weird." He said he always knows when he's dreaming because things are just too weird in dreams to be real. He said his dreams are very vivid and he remembers most of them. I tried to convince him that most people don't actually know they are dreaming while in the dream, but he didn't believe me. He said something like, "maybe you and all those people on that forum you visit are the ones who are weird because you don't know you're dreaming and that's why you think most people don't know."

Needless to say, this has caused me quite a lot of consternation. Is my boss a lucid dreaming genius or does he just not understand what I'm talking about?
