Solipsism states that there is nothing that exists outside of our own minds. Everything you see is a product of your own dream world. This philosophy does a great job at describing the self, but what does this mean about our relationships with others? Is everyone in their own dream? If so, how can we possibly understand someone else's reality? How do we communicate if we are all in our own dreams?

If life is a dream than make it what you want. Have you ever been in a dream and are sometimes able to control what happens, well if life is a dream, maybe you can do it here. I say it doesn't matter if life is a dream or real or whatever, it is still life so live it the best you can.

yea, it is your thought that exist outside you because if you notice anything you want to be or do or say is inside you which your thought and someone out their is same or similar .just like two different people are in love the both of them feel same thing and the always dream alike sha sorry for using this example but is the only way i think i can express myself in these question .you can also ask yourself why do feel good when thing are move according to your wish eh wish are things you think of and you want them to happen so dear as you talk you think as you think you you act. so you dream has an effect or affect your future and your past

Yeah, the age-old question: Is what we call reality merely a dream and what we call dreaming the actual reality?
A very good and to-the-point discussion of this can be found in Don Miguel Ruiz's short book, THE FOUR AGREEMENTS. It may cause you to rethink the notion of "dreams".

You got it wrong. If it is in your mind, it NOT a dream. If anything can be considered the seat of human-ness, it is the brain. The brain interprets EVERYTHING! We don't see with our eyes but with our brain. We don't hear, feel, touch or taste with anything but with our brain. It is the seat of our awareness. The only reality we have is in our mind.

read Poe's poems
read Dostoevsky's "Notes from the Underground and Dreams of a ridiculous man
"somniare ergo sum" ? or is it the opposite
"sum ergo somniare" ?

Life could be a dream
If I could take you up in paradise up above
If you would tell me I'm the only one that you love
Life could be a dream sweetheart
Hello, hello again

If you would let me spend my whole life loving you
