Chapter 48 - I Died Many Times Before

I know how unbelievable this may sound but I think I just solve the mystery about why we dream. Have you ever dream of something so painful, it makes you cry? Or seeing yourself in a really bad situation that would make you want to disappear? Or that time when you die or you kill someone in your dream? Well I think it's all because we are interconnected with our parallel selves. I know, there is no scientific evidence to prove this claim but just think about it... Just like how the sea is unexplored, a huge part of the space is yet to be uncovered.

Now what does this have to do with the dying? Well, you see, I've been having a lot of nightmares lately. There was this one time were I dreamed of my self in a really tall building, I was contemplating whether to jump or not, but then something from behind pushed me, then I woke up. Of course that could just be some kind of nightmare and stuffs thaf had nothing to do with all this, right? Well see. My next dream was seeing my girlfriend being ****, I cried because I couldn't do anything about it. I woke up crying but then I forgot about what made me cry. The next day, I had the same dream, the same setting, but not the same scenario. In fact it's like a continuation of that dream. After my girlfriend was r.a.p.ed, I was accused of raping her. I was sentenced to a death penalty, I was hanged but then I woke up. The next day, I didn't have a dream, not anything at all. There are some cases too where my family would be worried about me because they would see me, eyes wide open. They would talk to me about various stuffs but when I woke up, I wouldn't remember a thing. Almost like I was being controlled by another me. Someone who knows me but it wasn't me. There are also times when I would dream about something that happened that day. But with different scenarios and ending. Perhaps the time where I didn't make it on time for the contest I was really waiting to go, then I dreamed about it, but in my dream I did make it on time and it didn't end so well. Of course I don't only dream of bad stuffs, I also dream about my family being peaceful for once, and everything being so well.

I guess what I'm saying is, everytime we dream, we are unconsciously visiting our other selves, and it let's us decide in their places. We dream because our other selves don't know how to decide on something. Perhaps they're in a serious situation that they couldn't decide for themselves. The same goes for us, you know that feeling where we just auto pilot about something? Perhaps someone would talk to us and we just answer like normal even though we were thinking of something else and then we realize how we were able to answer it correctly without really thinking about the question? I think we are being controlled by our other selves in a form of a dream too. That may be why we get to interact with people we don't know in our dreams as if we knew them all along. There are also cases when we don't get to control our dreams, that must be because our other selves are controlling their bodies making it seem like we're watching a scene from a movie. Lucid dreaming on the other hand let's you fully control your other self that's why you are aware of what you're doing and why you know you're dreaming. Now why does isbour dream continuous sometimes? Well we may be visiting on the same dimension as we've been before, and that maybe why we don't we dream sometimes too, maybe that's because the dimension we visited is where our other self is already dead, afterall we do dream of dying sometimes right? Now what happens when everyone else from our other dimensional selves died? I don't know it yet, maybe that's the time we die too. I haven't been dreaming anything at all for the past few days. I am currently in the hospital while typing this, maybe if I died here... Me and my other selves would reincarnate together, who knows? Now that I have said it all, I can say that I've died many times before... And now, I may die for real.
