      Hi sana

      some people remember their dreams better that others. but each one of us gets dreams. this may be due to the fact the brain differ in the way they work. scientists are still finding why this is so. Interestingly, some people who remember dreams better have better responses to sounds while they are awake!

      Everyone dreams, but some people remember dreams and others don’t – whilst those who do remember them only remember certain dreams.

      Our brain functions very differently when we’re asleep to when we’re awake and this may prevent us from remembering all of our dreams. We also don’t pay much attention to our dreams which may be why we don’t remember them. The ones we do remember are usually more interesting than others or cause emotions to rise, which probably causes them to be transferred to our memory.
