Trippy. Really makes you wonder how much of what we experience is real compared to the electric impulses we perceive filtered through the mind.

Heh heh I can think of obvious uses for this one
But I've heard that in your dream state you don't think in the same way, someone I know who does lucid dreaming told me that in his dream state his physical wants fall away. Is that true in your own experience too?
This is definitely very interesting, I just started writing out my dreams in a dream journal to help me take the first step towards becoming a lucid dreamer.
