your guess is as good as mine. it could also be that we simply didn't start remembering our dreams until adulthood. something about the frontal lobes not fully coming online until then. our frontal lobes might not have fully developed until relatively recently.


No, that can't be it, because I can remember a lot of my dreams, even when I was little.


Yeah. I probably had more dreams that were memorable (some I still remember) per unit time as a child than now.

At around eight or nine I had a dream within a dream. Was exploring my neighborhood, it rained. I got lost. Got increasing upset about being lost. Frantically tried finding my way. Finally.... there it was... at the top of the hill-the sign that said "16th Place" - the street I live on! Just as I started to walk toward my street- I woke up! Found myself on an operating table. The doctors told me "were done taking out your tonsils. So just wait in the waiting room for your mom to come and pick you up". I was so stunned that "that whole thing about getting lost walking around the nieghborhood was just a dream!". And then I remembered having gone to the doctor to have an operation- the whole storyline prior my going under and having that dream about getting lost in the neighbor hood. WOW! what a vivid dream!


So I sat in the doctor's waiting room looking at coloring books waitng for mom to come and take me home, and....I woke up a SECOND time. And found myself lying in my bed. And had the whole "gee whiz that was just a dream" thing happen a second time!

That was a real dream I had a few months after I had my tonsils out. A "classic" mind bending dream that I still remember.

The earliest dream that I can recall? Hard to say. Around seven or eight (bout the same age as the above dream) I used to have a recurring storyline (the settings were slightly different - but the same thing would happen) about being on top of high buildings,or high bridges, and then looking over the edge of the flat roof of the tall building, or the walls of the high bridge, to see the distant street far below, then I would always fall OFF the building, and fall towards the street, which would always cause me to brace my body for the fall -which would include shutting my eyes. And as I would fall with my eyes shut there was always a long puzzling pause.....nothing would happen. So I would open my eyes to see why I hadnt hit the ground and splattered yet. Opening your dream eyes causes your real eyes to open. And would find myself safe lying in my bed.

I soon grew out of that recurring nightmare about falling from great heights, but I remembered that trick for getting out of a nightmare: just shut your eyes....and then open 'em! :D

I had a dream when I was quite small in which there was this enormous jungle, and a group of kids were on a field trip of some kind. They were tiny, so a leaf was huge in comparison. The tour guide was yapping on about unimportant things, and he naturally didn't notice the colossal python slithering around in a tree nearby. Then one of the kids slipped and began to slide down a banana leaf...just as a tiger roared and pounced.

I don't remember a whole lot but I jumped up in the air & flew like I was thrown extremely hard & going to crash on the ground before I forced myself to wake up. My stomach felt queasy during that part of the dream & when I woke up.

Falling off a building? Those seem to be very common dreams from what I have heard.

i dreamt I was at work in a hospital, not the one I used to work in. the hospital food services supplied an experimental new method of feeding patients and staff, they [via an automated mechanism] sent up to the wards various black plastic trays that were not labeled, we were to "take a chance and choose one" to eat. I watched as others chose one of two different kinds, a veggie meal tray and a meatie meal tray. the meatie tray had a bunch of filet mignon type meats on it, well done, while the veggie trays had clever approximations of meat and dairy products made from veggies. I had the veggie tray and while I was curious about the meatie trays I didn't sample one.

I dreamed that I was excavating ancient Egypt stuff in Egypt. Well, I say excavating, but everyone put everything back exactly where they found them. The odd thing was that we found a tomb in which it seemed like everyone carrying treasure inside to complete the tomb rituals had just dropped dead inside and someone had sealed the tomb up anyway! What's it all mean? :?: :!: :?: :!:

all night long it seems I was dreaming this and that, but what remains after awaking this morning, was I dreamt I was washing dishes at the sink, and I was laboriously removing food bits from a large sponge that was reluctantly letting go of them. I was hot and sweaty and tired in the dream and when I awoke I was hot and sweaty and tired also. :|

That's probably ...the only way a student CAN attend Trump University.

In a dream!

i dreamt i was driving in a very small porsche in the evening to my old elementary school. i had my license and i was not yet too accustomed to driving.

the uphill road leading to my school was very, very long and protracted, and a certain WP member told me it would take 3.4 years to reach the school. it was not that long, but it did feel like hours. then i reached the school, relatively unchanged when compared to the way old schools usually appear in my dreams, but i didn't spend too much time there anyway.

my cousins, the ones that i used to have sleepovers with until i was in middle school (and they left to college) lived in a house above the school. i went there and was instantly sent back into the mid/late 2000s. we played. i was fed a segmented peach i apparently didn't like. there were commercials on the TV demonstrating just how much sugar was in common fruit juice, and promoted a less sugary alternative. the atmosphere was nostalgic, and thus melancholy but everyone else was having a good time. the end of my era of spending time with them felt like it was drawing near (even though i saw them today and went there).

the words on the tv set were cryptic and unheard of. one of them stuck me to me and i remember it now, as clear as crystal.

I had a dream that I was watching what kind of looked like the origin of Disney's Zootopia, as it sort of explained why the animals in it are all anthropomorphic. A long time ago animals were just like they are in real life, except that animals from many parts of the world were all living close together and didn't try to kill or eat each other. An then an asteroid stuck the planet. The animals were all startled when the saw what look like a shooting star, and then there was a big explosion (scary!) The animals all huddled in fear until the explosion passed. And instead of all going the way of the dinosaur, they somehow became anthropomorphic. One of the animals stood upright when he realized he wasn't dead, and then he said, "Why am I standing on my hind legs? What are these strange sounds coming out of my mouth?" and then the other animals got up and did the same thing and there was a lot of confusion but they calmed down surprisingly quickly and started taking advantage of their newfound high intelligence and speech. First they lived in caves and wore loin cloths (which is kind of creepy because they would have been made from other animals), but history progressed and they eventually became like modern humans.

The weird thing is that in the movie Zootopia was a city and this dream made it sound like a different planet named Zootopia, or an alternate version of Earth where only animals exist. But it was pretty cool. :)
