Occasionally I have a nice feeling or an idea of a nice dream. Sometimes I even get inspired by whatever I dreamed of-- I am still delighted to think that when I needed an additional plot for The Stand, I had a dream about running a version of the game that included a storyline I hadn't already written in. And when I woke, I remembered what it was, and was able to use it to enrich into the actual game. That was cool.
But much more often I have bad dreams if I had any dream at all. And they are almost always about things that worry me, stress me out, or would be the worst thing ever if they actually happened. Not always things that I actually worry about in my real life because I know they're not likely to occur, but the things that would hurt me worst if they did. So sometimes, even if I don't remember them, I wake up upset with some worry or other that probably means that was the substance of the bad dream. And that happens a lot, far, far more than I ever have good dreams.
