Beyond reading your life

Wondering what it would be like to be in your shoes.
To be outside of this life and in someone else's.
How can we truly understand the world, ourselves..
When we merely only see through our eyes.
We may be able to experience different places and people.
But I want to actually feel something different.
Some place different.
Yet, I feel like that can only be accomplished in our dreams.
Mainly we read and hear about other lives.
But imagine if we could see the thoughts used that created that life.
How extraordinary beyond all belief to follow the process.
Of another life.
Rather than our own.

Why do we dream?

Why do we dream?
But.. wake and not remember a thing?
We dream all our lives
Remember good dreams
.. and bad
Some stick
While others vanish
Vanish away
With the rest of our past
Those cherrished memories
Are only cherrished because..
Its all you have left
I see those memories as dreams
Sometimes we plant events
And images
In our head
Those seeds are the dreams
Of our lives
Pieces of puzzles that we put together
Not always true
.. but not always false
We all wish
That we could live in our dreams
When..
Really..
We can
If we plant the seeds
And help them grow
Our dreams
Can be our reality.
