Inner Worlds

It is fascinating and amazing how varied and unique each of our "inner worlds" tend to be. Some seem so detailed, rich, and massive as the world outside is… and some are just a room to meet each other inside… Just amazes me…

I saw this thread before but didn't really know how to join the conversation but wanted to, so I'm going to now. xP

I (and some of the others) have had the chance to see into our inner world/dreamland over the years, and it's interesting. A lot of the places that show up consistently are like modified versions of places we've been. There's a big shopping center, and I actually met Danielle at a college in dreamland we've come to name "Denizen Academy". There's several other places which I can't think of at the moment, but our inner world is very much as big and varied as the world outside, and most of us system veterans have only had a chance to see a very small part of it through our dreams. It really is amazing.

I don't know that I've ever seen the inner world myself, but I suppose maybe in dreams… The others talk about going places, being here or there, living in places I don't live in… and Pixie has mentioned it, calling it "neverland", a few times- generally relating how much more fascinating the world out here is b/c of how "busy" it is. Trees, roads, houses, signs, just "stuff" everywhere… where "in there" it is highly detailed but far less so than the outside world. She says some places are every bit as detailed, but in general the world itself is not, and many places less so… IDK how that works, but I'd love to see it some day, to be with them there, maybe see and hold their kids… experience things with them inside… I think it'd be an amazing experience and opportunity to converse and share time and company with my various parts.

I think that it's also something that's really difficult to recall when you're actually conscious. Like, memories of dreamland seem really hazy for me. It's just like how dreams are really difficult to remember when I haven't written them down. I feel like, to an extent, memories of dreamland are stored differently, or even in a different place, than memories of consciousness, so it's difficult to recall them when conscious.

That makes sense, and should be expected perhaps. I mean, the alters exist, from what I understand, in the subconscious- where the "parts" of a singleton reside as well… These parts all drive them (and us)… so it makes sense, I guess, that the inner world they exist within when they are not "out" is likewise not in the conscious mind, and in a subconscious sort of "place" or function of the mind.
