It was very interesting to read about dream sequences from one of my favorite Norwegian authors, right after I'd started to get back to this topic here. Another so-called synchronicity, isn't it?
In one of his short stories the protagonist visits his hometown after many years. This makes him realize that in most of his dreams he has been doing so for a long while. But not in the first years after having moved to another place.
However as he got older, he experienced such memories to come back from his childhood nearly every night. Not only about places, but people he grew up, and went to school with. And so came back the feelings he had towards them, mixed with his everyday life experiences and feelings.
And so he wonders, if he plays a role in their dreamlife. Has he done or said anything that makes them think about him? Though they no longer know each other.
This brought up a lot of memories in me. And though it worked out for me in a different way, but the sequences, it's something really interesting, and the reason behind it all. Are you so busy in a new life that you don't have time for memories, not even in your dreams? Or you simply don't need them, or rather you don't think you do?
