Or do you think you'd be that brave in real life, too?
I had a dream last night where I dived into a deep, dark canal (I'm not the strongest swimmer.. when conscious anyway) to check if someone had gone under to rescue them if so. As in, I had no idea if they were under there, but I was brave enough to risk my life to dive in and check. It got me thinking about other dreams I've had where I've jumped in-front of bullets for people, I've lunged at killer monsters of dream world to protect people and give them means of escape etc. I've never been in a position to know if I'm actually that brave in consciousness!
Does anyone else have these kind of dreams, and do you think you'd do the same heroic act if it really happened?
