Random speculation: Dreams, a big part of our lives?

[Aquaplant]

If only I could dream properly anymore, because pretty much only dreams I remember are the unpleasant ones, and life is unpleasant enough as it is without dreams adding more to it.

Maybe dreams are just a reflection of our current state of life, because I can't even remember when was the last time I've had a pleasant dream. But then again our minds are capable of escaping the mere physical representation of our reality, so maybe my brain is, like me, too lazy to even dream properly.
