I have 'categories' of dreams... often stressful- and probably reflecting the stresses of wakefulness. I often dream of driving places and loosing track of my car after parking.. then walking randomly thru strange streets. *shrug*
   I used to have pleasant flying dreams, but not recently.

I have always **suspected** that 'out of body' and near death experiences and visions of dead relatives, etc., were closely related to vivid dreams and merely interpreted to suit.... but people hold tightly to their presumed extra-sensory experiences- and I can't prove otherwise... so... more shrugs.
