So there’s a name for that
whenever I’m cornered, or in any situation that is too bad to be true, I know I’m only dreaming. This is called lucid dream. What I would do next is either wait it out til I wake up or conciously alter my dream to my favor. But 100% of these dreams’ excitement end when I realize it as so. From thereon it becomes, as Rasheed Wallace would put it,"like a week-old soda" (or coke, if I were to be quoted). I mean dreams lose its fun -or flavor -once you get your hand on it.
Lucid dream. Nice term. I think I encountered this term in the movie "Vanilla Sky" but didn’t know what it meant until now.
