      Sleep and dreaming is still poorly understood by scientists. Our brains still have a lot of secrets. We know that we dream more during a stage of sleep called REM and that everyone dreams but different people remember their dreams to different extents. There several ideas of why we dream but not enough evidence to really prove one over another yet.
