Real dreams?

If you could have control over your dreams at night and make them as real as your experiences in waking life, would you accept such a power?

Comments:
Yes, I would accept that power. I hardly ever remember my dreams, and having full control over them might change that. It would be amusing as well, because you could do anything you've ever wanted to, without negative repercussions.
 
You can experiene this to some degree without it being a special "power". It just takes concentration, practice, patience, and time. You have to be careful, though, as knowing when you're "really" awake after awhile can present quite a problem.
 
My dreams are already as powerful as my waking state, and sometimes during the day fragments of them return, and for a second it is difficult to separate the two, aside from the fact that the dream-state carries a sort of unmistakable incandescence. I don't have the kind of control I'd like to have over my dreams, but a case could be made that an attempt to control them might subvert their true, hidden meaning. Perhaps the brain needs dreams in order to function in the absence of "fixed" external stimuli, and perhaps consciousness needs to take a breather as well. Lucid dreamers may have a different system that the average person cannot, or wouldn't want to, handle. On the other hand, lucid dreams provide an opportunity to engage in activities that appear to defy the laws of physics and probability, and what is the difference, the next morning, between an "actual" memory and a dream? Not too much.
 
already have it
 
No, I would not accept that power. My dreams do well on their own, sometimes they are realistic, other times symbolic but almost always providing insight(except the naked at highschool ones..lol). They are useful to me and I don't want to tamper with them in any way.
 
Already happens to me... I go to "sleep" from this so called "real" world, but I am really "waking" up in the so called "dream" land. At times it gets confusing, but with a quick thought of trying to fly I know where I am.. in the "real" world I am unable to fly. in the "dream" world I can fly anywhere.
 
for over 45yrs I've been a flying, lucid dreamer. it took many, many years to hone my skills on the other side. Carlos Castenada, the Senoi Indian dream culture & constant quests to discipher nonsensical mental masterbation from genuine ethereal entities was a long slow process. there are numerous gates of dreaming to higher & higher levels of seperate realities in alternate realms. befriending allies, acknowledging & respecting extraterrestrial contacts & avoiding the dark forces at work here, without fear, are all important elements for survival on the other side. the rewards are immeasurable enhancements to your "life", precognitive messages, warnings & endless possibilities for the future.
 
thats the way ive been dreaming since I was little
 
NO, I would not. I think dreaming is primarily for your subconscious to have some play time. It takes the semi-conscious perspective along mainly for the ride and for the reactions which help process matters of importance back in the REAL world. To completely take over the process with consciousness would be like a captain of a ship trying to micromanage the whole crew underneath him-- day and night.
 
Sometimes I'd want my dreams to be real but other times I wouldn't.
 
yes, i would accept it.

I've always had trouble putting my fictitous ideas onto paper. In this fashion i could experiance the things that i dearly want to know more about. Withhout the ability to write it down it is hard for me to expand on the ideas so this would be perfect.
 
Not only no, but hell no. I would never want to experience my dreams in real life. What an absolutely bizarre state of being.It would be, for me, a world of the weird, sometimes fearful, & sometimes violent. Not a chance.
 
As silly as it sounds, my dreams seem realer to me than my life. In a way, I already have this.
