suddenly I'm reminded of Dorothy and the nature/nurture thread that winds through her books.
Yes - good catch, and so true. One of the many interesting aspects there.
And she has reincarnation too - the Nicholas/Lymond link. Cool.
I think perhaps I fear my dreams to some extent as well. Yes, I'm with your mother there! I don't fear them much, but when I remember them, they are often about confusions and fears and things which bother me - not in a way that makes me feel better, but in a way that makes me worry or feel distressed.
I can't recall if my dreams changed with I was depressed, or when I was on medication.
I do occasionally have a terrific dream, clearly fictionally-based. Otherwise... there's a lot writing exams for subjects I haven't studied, or being late for work, or such things. Nothing insightful, just troublesome.
I want to know more about how my mind works.
That might be useful - but my dreams certainly aren't offering much insight.
