They are things steeped in mystery, with hidden meanings, windows to our psyche, tell the future and are a necessary process for the brain to learn new things and make decisions about ongoing problems. They are the focus of much debate and speculation, cause us to toss and turn, and even stir us in the deepest sleep.
But if you remain asleep, they are our reality for one night, a complete simulation of waking life running entirely on memory, but as real as your brain can comprehend it. We create parallel universes in which everything is the same but somehow different, travel across stars, meet forgotten faces, face our biggest fears, indulge in our deepest emotions, and swim, run, fly away from all the troubles of the day. Flight across new lands, new experiences, hidden desires, fun and adventures, lost memories, better places, better times... until you wake up.

And what was solid breaks apart like cobwebs and wisply diffuses into the darkness.
How such intangible things can be so quickly snatched away.
