tabular_rasaIt's funny when you can see exactly where every element of your dream came from it . . . some dreams just really are sub-(or even reguluar)consciousness.
. . . though I can't really explain where Morgan Freeman came in. That was kind of random . . .
(Not that Che Guavara, girl scouts, hazing, muffins-- and cake in people's faces-- New York, a dilapidated bridge, a barren landscape in a barren country, missiles, and little girls having sex with random old men would make any sense at all besides anyone who had been in my head, read the same things I have-- blame Lolita for the sex part, lol-- watched the same things I have, and had the same coversations I have . . . )
If we even have free will in our present, earthly existence, I wonder if dreams are perhaps an illustration of what life would be like if we didn't have free will? I never make any of my own decisions during dreams, it seems-- and, on a deeper level, our subconscious dictates the dream, which suggests a deeper lack of free will in the situation to begin with. Then again-- we don't choose our settings so well in real life, either. So now I'm comparing dreams to reality and we're back to Descartes . . .
