VII. Time inside the Mind

After reading the 7th chapter of slaughterhouse-five, I was interested in this phrase the book says:

“Billy was unconscious for two days after that, and he dreamed millions of things, some of them true. The true things were time-travel.” Vonnegut is refereeing that he only believes time travel is the true and real thing. This refers that his dreams are the time traveling. This time traveling can be seen as a dream, which sometime has true facts in them but the mind unconsciously also creates false events, objects or persons. This might be a big dream, or maybe he time travels when he falls a sleep into a dream or a day dream, so is his reality really true? 

Maybe we are all wrong thinking dreams aren't true, always thinking "i wish this dream comes true." Maybe life is a whole dream and we have small dreams in it, or maybe the so called "dreams" are a space-out of the real big dream.

The phrase hyperlinked represents a typical human "dream".
