Is life all a dream?
Have you ever wondered what would happen after death? Would we be presented to God and be judged whether to be sent to Heaven or Hell? Or would we just wake up to find out that it was all just a dream? For all we know, our lives may very well be exactly like in the movies. We could be observed by other beings, our every action closely monitored by watchful eyes. But that doesn't really matter to me, because I care more about the present, the now that we're living in. As the saying goes, yesterday was past, but today is the present. Because today is a gift, for us to celebrate another day of being in the presence of our loved ones. If life was truly a dream, I am fully committed to living that dream so when I wake up, I could say, "Aah, what a nice dream.", instead of "Oh my goodness, what a horrible nightmare!". This leads to another theoretical question. Would you rather be in the know and be unhappy or be like a fool, but a happy fool? Being the fool that I am, I would choose the latter because to me, happiness just about trumps everything else. So who cares if what we're living now is just a tiny fragment of a dream? I'd much rather be happy without a care in the world than anything else.
