What if your life was just a dream?

I should really have some electrodes attached to my brain when I settle in for sleep at night. That seems to be when my brain is going full blast. That is when I come up with a dozen of things to blog about.  However by the time I wake up it has all turned to mush and my blog pages stay blank.  But I digress since my lack of daily posts isn’t what this is about.

What if your life was just a dream?  Meaning, what if “my” life is just a dream?  Some nights when I lay quietly in my bed I have random thoughts and I wonder what would happen if I awoke the next morning, opened my eyes and found myself somewhere else. Somewhere else in my past, maybe 10 or 20 years past (ah yeah, I am that old  lol). What if I opened my eyes and I found myself in my past with who ever I was with at the time and where ever I was living at at the time.  What if everything that happened from that point in my past till now had all been just a dream?  When we sleep at night we have dreams all the time that seem real and feel real.

Would I wake up and just go “wow, what a crazy dream” and just go about my life?  Would I freak out wondering what happened to my husband, my kids, my life?  Would I morn for what I thought I had lost?  How would I explain it to people?  I am sure they would just roll their eyes and look into having me committed.  Would I change how I live my life from that point on?

Sometimes in this life I wish I had done more. Taken more opportunities.  No matter what I have wished I’d done at any given time in my life, I do know that had I done only one thing differently it could of completely sidelined the life I live now.  I happen to like my life, love my family and pray every night that when I wake up I will still be right here where I belong.
