Pinksoil, I too am a vivid dreamer and can fairly easily remember dreams in great detail. If nothing else, they are certainly a cheap form of entertainment.

I've said to my T before, "the most 'real' thing or the truest thing I can bring to you are my dreams." They show what my unconscious is grappling with. Sometimes I think too much, but the unconscious does not lie. My cognitive thinker self will be in denial or avoidant, etc., but this is not so in my dreams. Plus my unconscious usually starts dealing with an issue before my conscious does. So if I can access my dreams, I get a head start on knowing what I should be working on, and can bring the issue into my conscious thought. My oldest daughter also has good dream recall and she enjoys sharing them with me. It's a cool window into her head.
