Have any of you ever had a dream so real and so meaningful, you almost cried when you woke up?

I haven't had one where I cried when I woke up. I had one where it sducked when I woke up. Ambrosia was running tours, and I went. I was meeting all of the Ambrosia staff, which was cool, and was right about to get to Nathan Lamont when I woke up. Bah.

I've had quite a few dreams that left me disturbed or emotionally scarred. But they're prett personal and I won't bore you with them.

Yes, many times. They are also personal so I'll just shush now...

Isn't that funny... I thought I was alone in having dreams where I was dissapointed in waking up involving Ambrosia. Just recently I had this real spiffy one where I was becoming part of the Ambrosia crew. It was so real that I was actually surprised when I woke up... Dreams are cool, IMHO

I think I once had one about being IN Ares.
Could be a false memory, tho.
I could swear it was some Ambrosia game...
The weirdest dream I ever had involved the Rescue Rangers, unicorns, a fog-ensrouded castle, and said RRs being turned to stone.
This was when I was in elementry or preschool or something.

Ares doesn't play that big a role in my life. I usually dream about going bowling or my girlfriend.

*Chuckle* You sound a lot like me. Computer games don't figure much in my dreams; a certain person does.
But then, no one is getting too personal here. If you'd seen my post in Jazz's Just Chat topic, you might know what I mean.

Never dreamed about a computer game? Count yourself lucky. They can really skew your perception when you're playing the game you dreamed about.
Another fun thing to do with dreams is, when you are dreaming and you realize it, you can interact with your dream world according to how you want to, unfortunately for me its limited to looking around. The annoying thing is that your memories of the dream don't seem real at all.

2 interesting things to note are these: I always die in my dream,s--well, 90% of the time, I've been shot, axed, hung, but mostly beheaded with a guillitene, and I dont wake up before I die, I'm dead in my dream for quite a bit.
Second, my freakiest dream ever was when I was downloading marathon infinity, and I dreamed about It while I downloaded it (I had a 24K at the time). It was really wierd, it was in real life graphics, and really dark, I had no weapon, and I had to keep killing the damn phfor with my fists, then I jumped into the water to find my pistol, and I woke up.

I once was able to control a dream, but I only managed to change one little detail before I woke up.
------------------
"Oi, oi, oi, me got a hurt n here
Oi, oi, oi, me smell a ting is near
Me gonna bosh and me gonna nosh
An da hurt'll dissapear"

I can control a few of my dreams, but many times they turn out to be very strange.

I can only control daydreams, and dreams in a semi-concious state. I developed those faculties due to road trips and very bad schooling (no class I had the requirements for was fast enough, except in subjects I hated).

From a Freudian perspective, I can tell you that the computer gaming ethos of "die, start again" has infiltrated your subconcious and is giving rise to dreams concentrating on death. These portray a repressed fear of the unknown, manifesting as touching the great divide. You need to reconnect yourself with the cycle of life, spend time outdoors until you burn, and ponder the juxtaposition of the flora and fauna.
Then again, maybe not.
Personally, I can control nearly all my dreams, and none of them have anything to do with death. I get a feeling of great satisfaction when I twist a nightmare in on itself. Not to mention the benefits of being able to control my actions in other dreams... *Chuckle*

Dang I wish I could do that. Many of mine really suck. I hate going to sleep, but I like almost going to sleep, because I can daydream without distraction. I'm going to have to try more powerful forms of caffine.

I have also had some of those emotional dreams, but, like everyone elses, they are personal. And I dream about computers, too. I once had a dream that I worked at Apple.
