Why do you sometimes feel like you're jumping off a cliff in your dream and then jolt awake?

because the stuff your mind generates is actually sort of like a virtual world. sometimes when your mind dreams stuff it affects what happens in your REAL life, which is why people have wet dreams. You jump because if you dream your falling off a cliff, your brain senses it and wakes you up, because if you hit the ground, your mind actually senses that and damage could come to you.

How do you know this life that you live in is not just a dream?
It is true that sometimes when you are havine a dream you don't know that it is a dream. When you are having a dream you never wonder whether or not it is a dream. You only wonder that when you are awake. So by the fact that you are wondering that I would say that you are awake and this is not a dream. PS Unless I am just dreaming this.

This is a good example of the way dreams exaggerate everything. This dream illustrates the dreamer's not wanting to be caught by that particular person. Jumping off the cliff is an overly dramatic way of showing that the dreamer would prefer just about ANY fate to being caught.
