I met god in a dream. He told me what I believe the meaning of life. I started crying in the dream and when I woke up I forgot what he told me.

Don't have the time, nor am I in the mood to write an entry. Very cool thread idea, bumping so I can add mine when I'm feeling. The short of it is that I miss my friends, and my dream let me reconnect.

Alright, I'm back. Here is my dream, reposted directly from my dream journal.
"Yesterday morning, (Yesterday relative to today, 2023-02-12), I woke up from a dream. The details of the dream are few, except what the setting and
danger was. The setting was [Name of my High School], in the hallway of the art room. The danger was a black figure, tall and muscular, barreling down the hall to beat the soykaf out of me.
Note how it is black, not Black, as it was a shadow, with it's vantablack skin and ethereal, evil presence.
Writing it down again, I remember pondering the idea of a fast ghost on my way to sleep, that is probably partially to blame for this dream. What I interpreted this as though, was that the shadowy figure representing how people bitch me out in life.
Talking down to me, touching me unwanted, mocking me. I hate it, and the shadow monster encapsulates those feelings. And the shadow monster is fast, and I can't escape it. And it is strong, I cannot beat it. Truly a hopeless
endeavor.
After the dream, I woke up really really angry. Probably about how I'm being bullied in the real world too."
Couldn't find the entry on my friends. Apologies for the cursing.

Last night I dreamt that I was on lainchan and got into a discussion about Sybil attacks with someone. It was weird.

One day I l dreamed that Santa Claus was donating his sperm and a bunch of women are lining up to get his Christmas cum. In this dream there was a girl that I like, I don't remember who she was, but I remember that she also take the festive cum and this broke me. Then I wake up confused

i keep going to bed with complex emotions and then having a crazy dream where i work through those feelings. like i'll go to bed worried i'm not appreciating my partner enough and then have a dream where i kill him in cold blood, or where i'm cheating on him without remorse, or where we've broken up and i've grown old without him. the contrast between my feelings in the dream and my feelings in real life gives opportunity for a lot of good introspection.
and the body horror dreams. had a recurring one a few years ago where my kneecap would come detached and fall down to my ankle, like a small rock falling down inside a pair of leggings. dreams where i have a terminal illness and am going to die immediately. i have a lot of sexual body horror dreams but i'll spare you the exact details, except that my dick never looks normal and i am always going to die about it.
uhh in terms of normal dreams. i have a lot of dreams where i'm just a few years older or younger than i am now. sometimes my parents are dead about it. a lot of the better dreams are focused on weird architecture, like finding an entire abandoned apartment building in my basement, or living in an impossibly small house.
occasionally i'll get dreams that are just a review of information. just a plotless slideshow of images and facts. that's not a symptom of autism but i really think it should be

Dang, you guys have so many nightmares. My coolest dream was when I sat on the soft bank of a little pond. The water poured in and out of a small crevice next to me like someone softly breathing. And it was all covered in grass going from where I was to deep into the water. The water pouring in and out made the grass sway, it was crystal clear.
After that I got up and left, where I then accidentally walked into a 20ft ant pit and was eaten alive. But then I woke up and remembered how nice the dream was.

It was a random adventurous dream in an inhospit land when suddenly a former classmate of mine who loved me very much appeared and gave me a big hug. Then music started playing and I was the music. I could feel the emotion on the female vocalists voice and how they actually felt singing it. I was like "oh my god it's all true, they are conscious too" and then I was the soundwaves and made back to my bed where many tears were going through my face.

Remembered another interesting one
Was in my old school building and was a kid, saw another unknown kid wearing a shirt that irl belongs to me, so I grabbed him and was like "this is MY shirttt" so a tall angel irradiating love started walking side by side with me and said I would have to go to because of that behaviour.. I knew where I would go: to a hospital. Next think I know I'm there and it's an isolated room like those for people with infectious diseases and they say I will spend quite some time there. It all actually felt really good and humbling.

I have weird dreams and I try to catalogue all of the stuff I see in my dream journal to understand it better, whats odd is I can never come up with these sorts of things when I'm conscious despite being a decently creative person, I wouldn't exactly call them nightmares either because I'm rarely scared in these dreams
also I have a lot more it's just I can only attach 3 files

Not sure if this counts as a dream or delirium but I had one of those Stories where you self insert yourself as a character and also get people you know playing the roles in the story kind of dream.
I probably woke up and went back a few times because I remember having this be like a stage rehearsal where we went through the story several times but corrected the screenplay each time.
So here is what I can gather from the final version when I tried to structure it from notes I made waking up
I was an adventurer, a spellsword that specialised in quests requiring academic research since I grew up on medieval university grounds and picked up a few things.
After some deeds I was summoned to the court of a local king. It was something like a royal audience where you have to wait to be summoned in line. The whole royal family was there and my gf played the role of one of the daughters of the king, though they all had icy blue hair and wore dark blue clothes.
I was given the task of slaying the demon that haunted the southern mine close to the lads of the other king with whom the country had a long history of friendship changing to war and back to friendship. I was promised I could ask for any one thing the king could provide as a compensation.
That evening at my tavern I received a letter saying that if I'm truly a learned man and a accomplished adventurer I should ask for the best courtesan that the kingdom can provide. Confused by this I went out to the nearest mages guild in a town nearby to get notes on the demon as just slaying him would be not enough and I would need to exorcise it.
I took a ride with a merchant and during the conversation we had on the ride ride I casually brought up the question of courtesans in the kingdom. The Merchant told me that there is an old legend that a long time ago the kingdom to the south was no kingdom at all, but a tribe of nomadic rorse riding barbarians that bested the army of the kingdom in battle killing the king and imposed harsh terms of peace. The terms were so insurmountable the legend says that the queen offered herself as a courtesan to the warlord in exchange for better terms and he accepted. In memoriam for her sacrifice there is a day of celebration in her name every year.
Arriving in the mages guild I looked through the notes on the demon and also on the local history pertaining to that period... For some reason the demon slaying adventure was just skipped in the dream and the next thing is me returning to the court with the quest completed.
Of course I asked for the best courtesan and it caused a bit of an uproar in the kingdom, but the king accepted it after talking with the queen and his ministers.
After that I was led to the chambers and told to wait. After a while the daughter of the king played by my gf arrived and explained that it was she that sent the letter. She grew tired of the court life and the overbearing father that would soon give to be married to some other prince and so she devised a plan.
It turns out that there is a secret ritual in the royal family to this day where one of the princesses gets selected for the role of the potential courtesan In case of a similar situation occuring. She made sure to be selected and pulled the strings that made it so she would be bound to the adventurer that claimed her as a prize. She of course feels uncomfortable with sharing the bed with a man she doesn't know, but she feels it's her only chance to escape.
After that came the twist that actually according to the accounts from that kingdom to the south that I found the queen didn't become a courtesan like the story said since the warlord turned out to be devoted to his wife he already had and just didn't understand the concept of the courtesan. When the situation was explained he appointed her to be his personal assistant in dealing with the civilised kingdoms and that it was due to her influence that they settled and became a kingdom.
As such I appointed her to be my personal assistant and see about whether we would want to further our relationship any further later. After that she implorede to help her free a noble lady she was friends with from a neiboring kingdom but by that point I woke up.
Sorry if that's a bit too with fulfilment but I was just surprised by that type of dream. As I said it wasorr like a series of about Three rehearsals for the play but at the same time felt real.loke I was simultaneously a GM and a character.

I think the coolest dream I've had was a nightmare with mild telepathic powers. I usually have pretty grounded dreams with few overtly supernatural events, so it was interesting.
>oekaki because lainchan doesn't like the stock photos I tried to use
I was walking through a nice upper middle-class suburb, the sun was high in the sky, no clouds, everything felt right.
After a minute or two of this, I started hearing a mildly irritated woman's voice from a street over. I focused on it and without meaning to I was able to project my awareness over to the source of the sound, and I saw a stereotypical thief like picrel carrying a woman in a red dress over his shoulder. She was sincerely not happy about what was happening, but she was underreacting to the situation.
In my mind, I asked something to the effect of "what's happening, what's going on?" but I think since I was projecting my awareness it was picked up by the criminal character, and he was able to reply telepathically. He said something along the lines of "don't interfere, or I'll kill you." In addition to the words he projected this terrifying nonverbal sensation(?) along with the message it made my heart race with fear and I became immobilized. After a few minutes of being frozen in place and hearing the abductee complain about being abducted, I woke up. I was so convinced that it was real that I looked out my window to make sure nothing was happening on the street and ended up checking local crime stats to see if an abduction had been reported. Of course, the dream wasn't actually influenced by anything happening in reality, but while it was happening it carried a sense of realism that took several minutes to drain away. It's hard to get the feeling across over text.
