As the years goes by, there are dreams that plays in my mind over and over again, some stays because its quite personal , and some stick because it is just plain bizarre.
One particular dream that I probably will never forget and told numerous time, I called it the Heaven/Hell. I had this dream sometimes last year, and must I say it was one of the longest dream I've had.
I'll try to keep it short:
In the beginning a crazy man with an axe murdered my family and eventually...me. Then magically I turned up in Heaven, and in my dream Heaven was just a plain white room overcrowded with people dressed in white robes, just like the doctors office. The other half of the room is a huge human sized cage, it was also crowded and I was in it.
Then I learned that in Heaven, you can wish for anything you wanted and it will instantly come true but you have in stay in the overcrowded white room, since heaven was that room.
Then my parents called me from Hell!! (I know it sounds so creepy) Apparently there are phones that connects the two world together, my parents then went on to tell me their phone number and it ran like a million digits long. My dream then move on showing my parents and Hell.
The Hell from my dream looks just like earth, except its dark all the time, and my parents looked like the couple from that painting:
American Gothic . They went on telling me that just like earth, people in Hell has to work to make a living. And there was rolls of houses behind them. But to my surprise there were no severe punishments (unless if you count getting a job and work) in Hell.
The End
I cant help but to think that my dream might be a metaphor to our current lives. Just like that movie with Ricky Gervais: The Invention of Lying, when the towns people discovered Heaven, they stopped working or enjoying their current lives but only to fantasizing about their afterlife. And relaying Heaven to bring them big houses, cars and happiness.
To this day, I still don't really understand this dream. But after waking up, I do remember thinking I rather go to Hell and get a job than stuck in a tiny room full of people.
Any of you guys shares an similar dream experience? Let me know : )
