Reality?

This past weekend I came to thinking, what is reality? Reality vs Dream? Are we awake or not? In observations I make and experiences that keep our going, is it our dreams that wake us every day to have us strive for a selffulling goal that not even yourself knows if it is possible to achieve this goal. Or are we just living in this dream of someone, at any minute the dream will be over and our universe as we know will be over?

So I was sitting in this chair last night, watching a football game on the television and all of a sudden I thought I was fast asleep. I thought I was dreaming. Was this realm in time really happening as reality or a dream. I did not understand what was going on and I was not sure if I could get out of my seat. My voice was paralized and my thoughts raced. It ended up like so many other times, a day dream. The whole time I was awake, I was dreaming of beings somewhere else, a beautiful mountain, on a lake, spending my time with some loved ones. The funny thing was, the people in this day dream I never met. I dont know who they are. I was in a room with people I known for years and all I did was day dream about this mountain top town with people I never knew. Was I channeling another moment in time. A time that in another moment was occuring, with my mind, my reality, my wholeness but I was sitting in this small room with people I knew for years, but distanced by this day dream.

Was this moment when I was day dreaming hours or just fractions of a second. I wasnt sure, the whole night I was drifting in and out of this day dream state. I was quite interesting, all this dreaming made me really drowsey. I had to get out of this room before I went insane. But in this midst of leaving, I found myself, not in a hurry to leave for the sake of leaving, but to leave so I could continue this dream. When I got up, I drove home and a few hours later went to bed. I was hopeing to finish this dream that keeps occuring. But the dream did not come back to me. That night I dreamt about eating lunch at this bar/resturaunt with people from work. The place we ate at was up in North Jeresy in this town were my company just complete water sampling. After eating, I found myself standing at the train station. The town were it took place has a bus station. The town however seemed to be 100 years earlier in time. A time were that I never studied or even heard of. As I was standing at this train station, trains came and trains left, but I just stood there. Like I was waiting for something or someone. What seemed like five hours waiting at the train station, I thought I was going to finally meet the person I was waiting for. However, my alarm woke me up.

It seems that each night I dream and in the climax of the story, I awake into what seems to be a flase reality. I awake in a state of confusion and unconsciousness. Is this dream real or is this reality false. To sit here in a place of unconsciousness, I type this though, I share this moment with only the figments around me, and I treasure the reality of dream. Does dream reality connect us to past lives or furture images. I like to believe that our dreams connect us with other moments in time. That there is not a time but a reality of a moment and when either day dreaming or REM dreaming, the dream reality connects with moments from past moments and furture moments. It holds peace and tranquility and lets the thought of humans extend past any capablity of a human. Those who can dream are the ones that can solve problems, can anser questions, and can find peace within themselves and share their dreams with others. It takes a dreamer to evolve into an alien on this mass we call earth.
