What if this was all a dream?

Question

Would you really want to wake up or just keep on "living the dream"

Answer 1

Are you kidding. If this, what I believe to be real actual life were a dream and I knew that it was, I would do my best to wake up. Of course if I found out that reality was worse, bang - back to sleep. If I were dreaming I think I would be having more fun, be a whole lot richer, prettier and hey let's face it, I wouldn't be sitting here at the computer at 10:35am on a Sunday morning.

Answer 2

By your nickname, I would assume that you wish this was a dream and that the real world is what you imagine things should be.

Btw, if this was really a dream, then I'd dream on. There's no harm to it essentially and once the dream ends, I wake up. It's really that simple.

Answer 3

i really would like to live on a dream but then there are just this minor problem that i occasionally have as there is this other demon knight that come to fought against me with any reason in my dream, and its no lie as it started a few weeks later after i make a personal pact with Lucifer, the prince of darkness, himself. and i do have the injuries from the fight to prove it.
where my point is i that prefer to settle the reality first before that dream again, though i do like a good fight.

Answer 4

If this was a dream, why not kill yourself, because in this dream you seem to tell yourself what to do, if you really want to wake up, is the only way of doing it by ending your so called "life"?

Makes me think sometimes, if this 'reality' is really real....it probably is, but films such as The Matrix, bring you to question such things...paranoia kicks in and you start to belive you don't really exist.

Answer 5

that sounds like that guy who said he dreamed, and he was a butterfly, but woke up, and now

not sure if he was a butterfly dreaming he was now a man, or he was a man that dreamed he was a butterfly

if I woke up would I die? lol

dreams are happier usually than reality, most may say keep dreaming

I have woken up and it's depressing...I think to choose dreaming so long as I am able to support that

Answer 6

In our terms of time, we awoke long ago. Life as we know it is indeed a dream. It lasted for less than the blink of an eye, and was gone, but we keep up the memory of that deep sleep, thus remain convinced that we are stuck here.
I always would choose to awaken, for our true state of being is infinitely better than this plane of existence, with its bodies, and plodding form. We are invisible, formless; whole, perfect and complete, for we were created as one with our Creator. We are capable of creating worlds, but choose instead this bit of memory when God's Son became afraid for an instant, and went to sleep.

Answer 7

I once dreamed that i was a butterfly...
I fluttered around and did all the things of a butterfly...
Then I awoke.

But I wondered...
Am I a man who dreamed I was a butterfly....
Or am I a butterfly dreaming that I am a man?

This is a version of something I read while studying Buddhism in prison. It really gets you thinkin dont it?

On my Myspace.com page (corbett king) I got a blog of a poem i wrote and a verse contains a distorted version of this...

"Drunk and in a stupor I once thought I was a Butterfly,,, But once I sobered up again I thought I was a man........."

Answer 8

That's exactly what we are all doing -- we're trapped in an illusion. Most of us do not want to be Enlightened because it's too painful to live with. Think about it: no friends, no family, no urge to argue with idiots, no need for a computer, no champagne, no style or fashion, no big-screen TV.....

Answer 9

keep on dreaming having fun over here
