Ever since I was a kid my dreams have been crazy as hell. Last night, I had a dream where I was dropping my kid off at school, but there were people on both sides of the road standing waiting for a wedding. I see the couple and nope right out. Turning around a curb, suddenly I was in a fucking baseball stadium and rows of seats cut me off. I had to get home so I got out of my car? I'm walking down the stairs when I hear "oh, there it is!" I look up where the person was pointing to the sky. I see some rocket like thing, and assumed it was fireworks. It stopped, I hear three dreaded bomb falling noise, and then it slams into a seat a few rows down from the wedding. I hit the deck because I don't want to die. But instead of exploding it sprays enough glitter throughout the stadium I ended up with a mouth full. Then I get out of there, call my mom, explained what happened, head to their house which is now a bunker in new York City and they refuse to believe what I went through. Then I woke up.

This for me becomes really obvious when you're learning a new (movement) skill. For example after driving lessons or my first time skiing I spent the nights going through all the scenario's. They also show that mice learning their way through a maze activate the same "direction" neurons in sequence of going through the maze while they dream and they think it will help in learning.

yes, its one part of it. you integrate what youve learned in the day into long term memory during REM, which is also when you dream
