Yeah for some reason this stuff is just really hard for some people. It doesn't fit their brain. But other things will perfectly. I think human brains are just more different than we understand.
My girlfriend can remember all her dreams and retell them when she wakes up. And she is sometimes aware she is dreaming and can do anything in the dream. I would kill for that ability, it's super cool. But to her, it's not even interesting. I asked, why don't you just fly around and explore the universe. And she just responded that since she knows it's not real, it's not interesting and pointless.
Oh wow - I have a lucid dream every once in a blue moon, and you betcha I'm flying all over the place. I guess it gets less exotic when it's happening frequently.
