Lovely. You've given words to experiences with lucid dreaming i had this summer. The dreams happened shortly following events around a psylisibn hallucinogen experience days earlier. Which occurred shortly after my fathers death. The dreams and shrooms resonated for days and altered my thinking. Not just in memory, but in ways i see and think to this day. In other words, the Dream lag continues. I feel certain neural pathways were interrupted and altered. Most dreams recede into vapor quickly, these have not. Your essay puts all this into a framework that i can start to make verbal sense of.
This was a great post. I recently had to put my senior dog down and about a week after, I had a dream about him. He had come back to life - no longer old, sick and bitter - just happy, healthy and sweet. This post led me to reflect more on that dream and what it might’ve meant for me.

I find dreams slowly sneak into our “real” life making it quite possible to believe in the impossible- that is if you remember them!!
"Experiential topsoil," and the "dream-lags" begins to make sense of so much. I love the post so much. Beautiful writing about Beautiful experiences.
