Nightmare Plot?
Recently, I had a nightmare, and I woke up at 5:00am. It was actually a pretty scary story, involving strange happenings on a plane, that slowly escalate to pandemonium, fear and panic. The ending was dark and unpleasant too, just like a good horror story. I immediately bolted from bed, ran to the PC (which happened to be on, downloading the latest South Park), and wrote a basic plot for a Horror novel based on my nightmare.
I’ve been having lots of ideas for articles, novels and blogs recently – perhaps I’m supposed to be a writer. It is a lot of fun to cleanly and nicely communicate something that gets a good reaction from other people. I’m already working on 3 books, and 2 articles, so lets see what happens over the next few weeks.
To keep this on-subject with Japan, Japanese people don’t HAVE dreams, they WATCH dreams. That’s quite a subtle and interesting difference.
I’ve always wanted to experience a ‘lucid dream’, which occurs when you start to dream, and you suddenly realise that you’re dreaming. At this point, you can guide the dream in any direction you want, and manifest anything, fly around – actually, you can do pretty much what Neo could do when he realised he could change the Matrix.
I wonder if Japanese people don’t lucid dream very often because of the nature of the language – it’s much harder to actively participate in something you’re watching, as opposed to becoming conscious of a dream you’re having.
Something to ponder! Does anyone have any thoughts or experiences?
