wow... that's crazy....
I guess maybe you weren't supposed to save the house fire then...? Maybe you were just seeing it on a higher level and taking on a part of the "one consciousness" by watching it happen, detached, but still obviously sympathetic.. or empathetic, even....Just experiencing, because that's what you (and we all) came here to do....
If the universe (or You, for that matter) intended on it being stopped, I am sure it would have been stopped....
...Although the idea of changing the world through a dream still intrigues me..
