October, 1943: More about Dreams & Reality

Many people have similar dreams: missing a whole semester of classes then realizing final exams are upon you; being out in public and realizing you are naked.

What Anais Nin says in this entry of her Diary is that even though you and I may have similar dreams, it does not draw us together; it does not create a human relationship. Whereas, if we had similar reality - you and have both have 4-year-old daughters, or you and I are both vegans - we do find that connection; we are not lonely or alone.

Does this make sense?
