I was just thinking, and bare with me...my mind just goes off thinkin\' about crazy s**t when i work at night...so anyway..isn\'t it funny how the brain works? In terms of dreaming? I know the brain stores memories, but it even stores characteristcs of people you\'re involved with in your life.
What i\'m saying is that if i have a dream and my wife or family members are in it, they act exactly the same way they do as in when i\'m not dreaming and it(my brain) matches their voices to these people perfectly. What is a bit mysterious is that sometimes there are people in my dream that i know that i haven\'t seen before,...or maybe this could just be a random stranger that my brain just happened to remember, but my conscience has not remembered.
While dreaming it recognizes that my wife is actually my wife and she reacts with the same characteristcs as do my children and all of my other family members...i think it\'s just wierd in how the brain actually creates this little cinema in your head and maps these electronic pulses or images of people you know and have them react accordingly(even tho the brain is supposed to be actually resting)....everytime i think about how the brain functions, i\'m always a bit fascinated by it....i still find myself tryin\' to connect the dream/nightmare factor that the brain triggers.
i still think the nightmare side of it deals with the way you are sleeping or sleep paralysis as it\'s called...when you can\'t move but you are awake? but why is it that there is always something of a paranormal presence or activity goin\' on during these moments? that s**t is scary.....heh i know i touched on a couple of different things here and some of it is a little head sprung, but i luv stuff like this that deals with how the brain works.
*this thread touched on alot of different and similar subjects, which is why i didn\'t start a new thread*
