Do you think those of us who tend to get our ideas in the middle of the night (or perhaps we have the ideas just not the necessary mojo) and get up to work with them are choosing creation over dreams? Do we either get it out or force it into our subconscious by hitting the snooze button that activates the dream state?
I dunno. It's early; I'm just thinking.
And if, when we don't get up to write it down, draw it, plan it, or whatever else you do with whatever your idea requires, then will it keep screaming at us in dreams until we do, or does it just go away crying at the lack of attention it gets?
Still dunno.
But this troubles me: If our great ideas are either acted on now or acted out in our dreams later, what are we supposed to be up doing when we have the falling dream? I had an old pal back in the record store days, who thought that "natural causes" deaths were what happened to people who did not wake up before hitting bottom in the falling dream. Makes sense to me.
But then again, it's the middle of the damned night!
