How can this be?
I had a dream last night where I was walking barefoot over broken glass and I felt pain like I would when I walk on broken glass, but how can that be when I've never walked barefoot over broken glass in real life and have no idea what it feels like?
The same goes for dreams where you fall. How do you know what it feels like to fall if you have never fallen in real life?
Du hast eine ziemlich genaue Vorstellung davon wie es sich anfühlen muss wenn man über Glasscherben geht und so ist es dann auch im Traum.
In Wirklichkeit wird es wohl etwas schlimmer sein.
My most frequent dream was that I could fly completely without fear. This was despite having a 'healthy' level of fear of flying after a near-crash in a single-engine plane.
