One time in the middle of a dream I realized that I was dreaming. I was sitting on a bench in a mall and there was some other guy sitting there too. I started telling him how I was dreaming at the time, and pointed out how I was theoretically his god..and how he was getting to talk to god at the moment.
This made him uncomfortable and he started walking away from me without saying anything. I followed after him and asked him if he has a life..wife, kids, job? I was trying to find out if there was some continuation to his life the same way that I have when I wake up again. He wouldn't answer me and just kept walking faster. Then I woke up. I felt so close to one more answer to this riddle. I'll keep working on it....
