The problem with dreaming is that you have to be asleep. Asleep means that you’re unconscious of practically everything that goes around you. You never get anything done. Therefore whatever dreams you may want to come true never will because you don’t get to do anything that would help you get to that dream of yours. So however entertaining dreams can be, they’re nothing to real life.

Or is it?

What happens when your dreams are a lot more entertaining and satisfying to spend your time on than that of what you can call your life? Will you wish to remain forever in dream-state, never wanting to wake up? But you’ll eventually have to; unless of course you’re in a coma of a sort, but that’s a different matter altogether, isn’t it?

To continually have dreams means you’ll have to stay asleep for more than the required eight hours that so few people really get to have these hectic days. So it’s a nearly impossible feat to remain asleep. Then when you do opt to stay in bed, your bodily functions get in the way of sleeping: you feel the need to eat, bathe, defecate, etc. So a lot of things eventually pull you away from that illusive dream-state. It’s like nature is keeping you in tight reins to remain living. Maybe we ought to be thankful for that.
