the mystery of sleep
the strangest things happen during sleep time. it is like you have no control over your body.
sometimes i will fall into a sleeping dream, but i will be awake. i can see the dream but i am not asleep yet.
or when i wake up in the middle of the night, i think of things that i would never think about during the day. a couple of times, i have woken up and thought about my family suddenly dying or disappearing into thin air. i ended up crying myself to sleep.
or i will have sexually explicit dreams about people i know. and then when i see them in real life, i think they know what happened. i get embarrased.
or i will have a dream that i told somebody something. i wake up thinking it really happened, so i go to that person and say 'remember when i said...' they have no idea what i am talking about.
or the dreams that piss you off for days. when i was 10, i had a really graphic dream of watching someone go to hell. i saw demons and the devil himself. i was terrified. even at school, i cried for days.
i have had dreams of throwing something only to find my pillow across the room when i wake up.
or i will dream about me getting hurt, and i wake up with bruises or sore muscles.
the whole state of sleep and dreams is like this mysterious world. it is fascinating, yet scary.
