I have been laying her for at least 10 hours. I thought it was gonna be an easy night. But of course the voices in my head say otherwise. I look at my dog in envy as he just lays there. I wanna go to sleep. I haven’t had a dream in soooo long. Maybe one day I will. One day it will just be a really long dream that’s perfect just for me. Or is that what heaven is? Maybe on days on earth is just a nightmare and when we wake up…Or what if its just some type of limbo where its just all in my head. I heard when you die your body produces massive amounts of DMT, which creates your dreams, so if thats true..could heaven be just a really good dreams?
thoughts please

It’d be interesting if heaven was just a good dream. I’ve heard stories of people who supposedly died and then came back to life, they always give different versions of the afterlife. It wouldn’t be surprising if heaven is just what are minds believe it to be.
To think of life as a nightmare as something we’ll soon wake up from is actually nice. I don’t dream much anymore, but I remember the occasional nightmares I use to get and waking up relieved it’s over.
Domestic animals have it easy because they don’t have the same worries as humans. When you say voices in your head, what exactly do you mean? Severe anxiety can be a cause of lack of sleep, perhaps you need to find an outlet so you can get some of it off your mind.
It might be a good dream for those that have near death experiences, but wouldn’t make sense if your body stopped functioning for it to be a dream (unless some part of it never dies… the soul?).
Some philosophy authors did consider that the body was a prison for the soul, and that our existence in earth is merely a temporary step along the way, so it would make sense (taking that pov) that earth is some sort of purgatory/hell. Some others say that when we die we go back to some kind of “source” our collective consciousness… i guess the only way we could know for sure is when we do die (and then, if it’s just lights out we’ll never really know). Hope you can get some sleep, i suffer from chronic insomnia and don’t even get me started on the things that lack of sleep can do to the mind…
