Sometimes it really bothers me that I never remember my dreams.
And by never, I mean almost never. But I almost never do. And I don’t mean remember for a short time and then the memory slips away because I didn’t immediately write it down or something. I mean I remember even having a dream (or nightmare) three or four times a year, maximum.
This morning, the alarm clock woke me up hard. I felt like I was in a deep sleep. And for some reason I felt like a dream was this close in hand, and suddenly I was thrust away from it. I felt an odd sense of loss.
Or maybe that wasn’t the case at all. Maybe I just woke up hard on a Monday morning. Still, I wish I could remember. If dreams occur but you never remember them, did they really happen?
