why do our dreams fade so fast after waking. I need a way to recall them. I think we receive instructions in dreams

The answer all relates to how memory works during sleep. Dreams happen in the temporal lobes as in "short-term memory". The long term memory region, the Hippocampus doesn't allow information to flow in during sleep, but it actually lets information flow out.
Thus there is no transfer of dream memory from short-term to long-term centers during sleep. We wake up and it all fades from short-term memory.
Quoting: YouAreDreaming Utter nonsense. You fucking retard... this is well studied in fMRI studies during sleep and the effects of memory and dreams. Read a book. During deep sleep,information flows out of the hippocampus, and through repetitive activity, becomes entrained onto slow changing synapses in the neocortex (Marshall & Born, 2007). Thus, sleep may enable the hippocampus to shut off acquisition of new memories and turn on repetitive firing that can allow memories to be encoded permanently in the neocortex (Marshall & Born, 2007; Mehta, 2007)
