Could memory be just an exchange of information with a simultaneously-occuring, "past" self?

Betsy has a vision of the future but its vastly different "look and feel" isn't too compatible with her current mental architecture. Betsy then forgets her memory of the future with her next breath.

Is her past self is blocked from recalling her present self simply because it can't compute what it sees, just like how she gradually forgets a dream when she awakens? (In porportion to how awake I she is that instant. My dreaming self thinks that it will easily recall every detail of the dream, but my waking self hasn't a clue.)

When we dream, are we actually exchanging information, in real time, with other selves in alternate realities? Is my subconscious brain really that creative when I dream that I can actually read a brilliant short story that I would have never thought of, or compose stunning, original pieces of classical music? Are flashes of insight strokes of mental luck or did we briefly "tune in" outside of ourselves using an innate temporal/dimensional communication protocols in our mind?

It might be that some of us can more intuitively use these protocols than others. They might be highly creative and insightful individuals. Super geniuses. Seers. Or just plain nuts. (How many crazy folks actually do see or hear someone else that we think isn't there? And what the hell are newborn babies looking at, anyway?)

I can't recall the number of times I dreamt of a personal event, remembered it upon waking, only years or months later to experience it in exact detail (no more than a few seconds, at most), thinking "Deja Vu" to myself.

Why, sometimes when I am in dream, does a person calling my name in my "waking" reality become part of my dream before the person says anything at all? And sometimes when I am waking, do I smell my kindergarten classroom or a dish that my mother used to cook as if I was there at that very instant?

Some of the sub-atomic particles which compose us experience time as simultaneous. We call the leaping of electrons through time scientific, but do not extend its possibilities to encompass any personal reality the way the atom itself does.

Quantum physics suggests that time as we sense it does not actually exist and that all of our perceived "time" is actually one simultaneous occurence, but how should that affect our personal relationship with time?
