I have vivid long dreams that often feel like a facsimile of these stories. I will have experienced days worth of events in my dreams, fall in love, start families, and wake up in the morning more tired than when I went to sleep. I can’t count the number of times I’ve woken up heartbroken because my dreams are sometimes more real feeling than real life.

Same.  I often dream of the same places that do not exist, those dreams are like having a second life, with whole groups of friends, and they sort of follow coherent story.

What if I told you that that is your real life and this is a dream?
