Unlikely feelings about situations in dreams

[mtbc]

My emotions are some different in my typical dreams. Alarm or annoyance come easily but, say, fear is reserved for the paranormal and mortal danger and the like, sometimes not even then. In a dream, facing a challenging invasion of enemy forces or whatever causes more an alert, attentive, focused kind of feeling.

In a dream this morning, I was traveling by rail in Metro Manila, not that I recall having seen the rail there, it's all been jeepneys and tricycles and whatnot. (Incidentally, my dreamscape Paris has more elevated rail than the real one.) I appeared to be with some organized group, a school or tour group or somesuch and, upon disembarking at what might have been a museum, I found that I did not have a mask and had also left all my clothes on the carriage.

Appropriating a disposable mask probably wouldn't be too hard but the clothes were more of a pain and I couldn't see them back on the carriage. It wasn't as if I was shocked and embarrassed to be stark naked in broad daylight at a busy city site, more that I felt that I'd stand out and would not be able to join the museum tour due to being inappropriately (un)attired. There wasn't shame, instead the situation was irritatingly disabling.

It'd be interesting to find out how many people now have masks appearing in their dreams.

I hate dreams where things go out of my control. I tend to wake up angry from them.
