Is this what we call reality a dream or are we dreaming or are we truly awake? How do we know what reality is? Or are we repeating our life every day as if we are on a single track that is headed for the afterlife?


There are so many things that could be real, or they could be the dream. When times are going well it feels like you are riding the wave and when it is not good times, time around us slows to almost a stop. Often, we can tell when we are on the up swing and the feeling is positive. Everything is lining up for us and all the years of hard work are going to pay off.


Yet there is always the other side. We can fall just as fast as we rise. In those times you are being tested to see what you will do and the reason why time slows. How sure are you that you have made the right decision, you may be riding high, and that one question can stop you in your tracks.


We all face that at one point in our lives, then comes the question of are you dreaming it as we do dream when we sleep. How do we know that answer? To sum it up into a simple yet complex answer, we truly do not know if this world is a dream we are having or even that we have died and are in heaven or hell.


To know is only something we will know when we die in this world. Thus, when we die in this world do we wake up? Or is this world that we are in the waiting world where God/the Creator passes judgment on us?


I know that I have asked important questions that we all face every day. At this time, I look at all these questions and I wonder what is real. I often wonder if I died back in 2005 when I woke up in the hospital. Maybe I did and I am living out the life I was meant to have. If we do not ask these questions at one time in our life, then for those people maybe this world is the

real one.


Within what has happened over the course of our lives brings us always back to ourselves. The real question is do you live this life we are all in? Real or a dream, heaven or hell, living or dead, the way you feel is what is true for you.


Remember that.


Stay safe.
