Today's almost-profound thought

I had an idea - it came to me in a dream. But why do we say "it came to me"? Surely it came from me?

The idea was in the context of a higher education establishment where I was preparing to take a course some weeks hence; a lecturer told me to start now to carve out time for myself, so that when the course started I'd have the study space ready. I thought this made sense, and that I could spend the next month or so doing some serious book-reading, then switch the newly-habitual hours from leisure reading to the coursework when it started.

And then I woke up and found it was all a dream - but possibly a useful one.
