Death Dreams

In almost any suspenseful dream, you'll reach a certain point where your subconscious decides that it's necessary for the plot and momentum to propel you into a situation where you are dying. This happens to me quite frequently in that unconscious mental state, but then you wake up right as they stab you or the trigger is pulled or the giant bear rips your head off. On two separate occasions my brain has decided to try and simulate what it would be like if I actually died. The first time this happened made logical sense and it seemed like a viable scenario of death- it went along with my religious beliefs on death (for the most part) and honestly, it made the "journey into the after life" less scary for me. Well the other instance when I "died" in my dream happened just last night. It was completely random and I have no idea where my brain pulled these ridiculous theories. When I died and got sent to this weird alternate dimension, I was so mad that I died. I totally wasn't ready, I loved living my life, and there were so many things I wish I had finished. You know how you can keep up with the plot in your dreams because your own brain is making it up, well my brain totally threw a curve ball at me, because I couldn't seem to handle it at all. All in all, I think its important for us to realize that we don't know when we're going to die, and most likely, its not going to be at a convenient time; they're are going to be things you wish you had done. So, whatever it is that you want to accomplish before you die, go out and do it.
