Wild dreams

What was your wildest dream? I remember when I was a kid, one time I slept in and when I woke up it was like I had risen from my grave because it was! My dream was a whole life, in it I grew up, married, had kids, got fired, and finally died after my neck was snapped in a fall. Unfortunately I was a kid and didn't write the details that I remembered but still it's worthy enough to be a story, right?
 
Oh yeah totally, It sounds interesting enough. My wildest dream? It was when I was preteen I had fallen asleep on the couch, in the dream I was in class, these girls I knew got my attention and showed me their rings that were glowing and said "Come on we got an alert." I was confused but went with them then suddenly I'm in a hero suit. We're trying to fight this thing I think it was like a living witch doll, something like that then in the middle of the dream I woke up from my nap.

Your dream was peculiar too but still dreamy. I describe mine as wild because it felt so real, like that was my real life and the life I woke up in was fake. Disorienting stuff. Never had one like that since.
 
I have to say I had my bunch of weird dreams, but the thing is no matter how real they are I am always very aware that they are dreams and it's not reality. It gives me certain approach to it and I start thinking more like a storyteller or so, thinking in patterns and story logic. For example, what weapon would work against this or that enemy if my story line culminates here? Can it be something that I had with me all this time? Or sometimes I could stop the time, for example, there was a moment in a dream when the bear came into the house and I felt the time stop so I could make my move thinking it through. I treat dreams like that more like little adventures and I can almost always escape from them deciding that it was enough for me and I don't want to deal with some of the consequences. Funny, huh?
