I had this weird dream about reincarnation... I think. I was hanging by a rope, over a large pool, and I couldn't hang on any longer. I fell in, and was surrounded by a thick gel. After struggling for awhile, I think I eventually drowned. The world suddenly turned upside down (gravity seemed to turn the other way, and up was now down). I was walking around underwater (presumably as a walking corpse) for a long time across a desolate surreal seascape, and was beginning to lose hope (kinda like at the end of FF8, with Squall wandering aimlessly). I was about to give up, when an angelic woman appeared and told me to come with her. As I started walking again, my body started turning into energy, and I eventually became a floating orb of energy, while my physical body deteriorated away. I (as the orb) flew to this enormous cube of energy with other orbs coming at it (presumably other spirits), and I joined with them and experienced great happiness. (Big blank spot I can't remember, but that I remember experiencing) Then, I felt myself being pulled away, and I "awoke" inside a new body, trapped in a chamber, with others like me but in stasis, only me awake (kinda like in the Matrix, when Neo first comes out of the fake world and sees the real one).

Then I woke up for real. After being awake for an hour or so and thinking about it, I realized that the dream was awfully Dante-esque, with the whole journey through the afterlife thing. And after experiencing perfect happiness (my "beatific vision"), I also coincidentally forgot all the little details. =P

But yea, I think those dreams where you dream about waking up are really creepy, cuz it makes you think: how do you ever know when you're really awake? Maybe you're still asleep, dreaming that you've woken and are living a normal life, when you're really still dreaming. Whoaoaoaoa... creepy.

*Oh yea, and the entire dream had background music, kinda like a giant dreamy music video or something, hahaha.
