When I sleep I dream deep mutlilayered dreams in which I live whole lifetimes, or relive historic events, or see through the eyes of character in places I ahve never been. I love, cry, laugh...all of it...in my sleep. My daughter tell me sometimes I cry and laugh and speak. I have written down the more interesting wonderful and terrible rememberances...
but does it mean anything to dream so intensely?

Gee whiz I just read my first comment and I was struck by how perceptions can really effect everything.
Of course my life is as vibrant and more vibrant than my dreams! I have Love and Beauty and Wonder like many only dream of...pardon the pun. I have never been an escapist ...never-the-less I appreciate all ideas and interpretations.

Dreams are stories your mind tells you when you're asleep. I'm no expert on dream interpretation, but what this tells me is that you have a wonderfully creative and imaginative mind. That is a very good thing, something to be thankful for, and even shared with others. Maybe you could use some of those wonderful plots as fuel for a novel, so we can laugh and cry along with you! :)

You are left with the emotional baggage. Being whole beings, and not a western/compartmentalized being you cant make one part of your self or life not touch any other part.
If you have terrible dreams, you get the emotional baggage to carry through the day. If you have great dreams the same thing happens. If you focus on your dreams, and not on the life you live, you miss out on being able to touch the world for the better. If you live at the whim of the darkness and light of your dreams then your children get to learn you are mercurial, or even unsafe. Through them in their formative stages the place where you live your life whether awake or asleep sculpts and forms who their children are, and who they get to become. It touches many people.
When the dream becomes more real than being awake, then you start not being alive when you are awake. You emotionally abandon the real people you have real connections to in real life.
You have to be able to distinguish the difference, or you are no different than the alcoholic who finds more peace in his bottle than being sober. He is escaping into one thing, and you are similarly escaping, but the bottle is named sleep.
