>>16054726I like both types of dreams a lot, just for different reasons. I rarely spend time with my friends, and I really like being with them, so it's really nice when I get to do it in my dreams, especially with some friends that I haven't seen in a long time. Sure, it could be mundane stuff like talking while walking around a bookstore, but the thing is that it's extremely rare for me and I love being with my friends, so it doesn't feel boring at all. It's different feelings toward the same thing, kinda like what you said about shrimp. It seems intriguing to you because you've never had it before, but for me it's just a pretty normal basic food.
>>16054729>Once you wake up, you'll be thinking about how that dream was just cool, rather than being stuck with the melancholy of the mundaneKinda, yeah, the cool ones are "more interesting" I guess, and they're really unique experiences, but I still like the mundane ones as well, at least as much, maybe even more, but I'm just biased because of my recent bookstore dream. And it doesn't really make me sad, because all my friends that I spend time with and talk to in my dreams don't feel like they're actually gone. I don't mean the dream makes them feel like they're there, it kinda does but I meant more that I still believe even though I haven't talked with them at all for years, I could reach out to them and we could be friends again. So that's why I don't consider them gone, and dreams with them are kinda like previews or sneak peeks or trailers. Actually that's a bad comparison, the dreams are more like fanfics than trailers. But still, very well-done, realistic, and believable fanfics. Nothing absurd.
So, yeah, I think the random cool dreams could be better at getting my mind off things, but the mundane dreams never make me feel bad.
