Sometimes when I wake up I feel rejuvenated. This never happens if I'm waking up to immediately go somewhere, but if I'm waking up from a god nap lately, or sleeping through the night and waking up a few hours before work, I feel like a completely different person.
Sometimes in the immediacy of waking up, in those very immediate moments, I'm energized. Sometimes there's this enthusiasm to go do something, to go satisfy something, to go learn something, usually socially. And then sometimes just like that, the sleep fog dissipates and I remember who I am, almost as if I had forgotten, because in the first few seconds I'm unburdened by myself. By my expectations. By my fear bias. And the things I want to do in those first seconds are leaving an impression on me. Because for someone that always feels unsure of who he really is, that fleeting instant feels like an unfiltered me.
I also had a random dream recently that took place a year or two from now. In the dream I was at the guitar shop. My skills had improved to the point I was confident in them, and I had continued to thicken out from weight training. And I was relaxed in my skin. The dream didn't seem to be about anything but showing me that.
These are both new to me, and happening in tandem. Does anybody else ever have dream experiences like these two?
