Growing up I also often woke up and would fall back asleep quickly to finish my dreams. Random stuff that’s hard to put into words.
I used to have a reoccurring dream of riding on a rollercoaster. The entire dream was me going through a kaleidoscope of a coaster, sitting up and then on my back. It happened maybe once a month for many months, also in my childhood. Often I hoped to have it again, but I wasn’t in control of when it happened.
I loved roller coasters.
