Imagine your brain is like a storyteller, it makes up wild stories while you sleep. But when you wake up, the storyteller runs out of ink, and the story fades away quickly. That’s why we remember dreams but forget them soon after.
Examples
- A child wakes up from a dream about flying, but forgets it by breakfast.
- You have a wild dream about being chased by aliens, but when you wake up, all you remember is the feeling of fear.
- Your dog dreams about chasing squirrels, but as soon as he wakes up, he forgets the whole thing.
