Dream Land...

Have you ever felt that your life, your memories, and all the people, places, and things around are just a figment of your imagination. That all of this just a dream. Travel with me for a second here. What if you are dreaming this; The screen you are reading, the thoughts being conjured in your mind are merely just a dream. Don't put it past the human mind to construct a world in which every one of your senses tells you it is real. We've all had those dreams; Those eerily real dreams in which reality gets slightly distorted and your dream world imprints into your real world. So what if we are trapped in a very ordinary comfortable dream world, sleeping away. So one can think; if we are in a dream world, what happens when we die? In this thought you could presume that we would wake up in the next 'level' up. This could very well be how it all works.

After seeing the movie inception it gave my mind a jolt. I have had these thoughts before but never had I had something so well placed, so well designed to illustrate my thoughts. I'm sure every one of us have had these thoughts and doubts if we truly are in the 'real' world. Inception was a breath taking experience in to the power of the human mind and what it is capable of. The explanation or in fact the manipulation of dreams and thoughts was not groundbreaking but relative and easy to understand. Thoughts and idea's being directly affected by your dreams, and visa versa. Because we all know if we have a stressful day it will play out into a dream we may have.

It's curios to think of what this life really is. Some say religion, others say nothing, but rarely do we hear that this life is not life at all. How scary would it be to finally wake up right now, realizing all of this was a dream. The human mind is wondrous and frightening all at the same time...
