Some times you dream of strange things, and wonder how can you even think of these things, but yet you do dream about them and then keep thinking what if it was true.

Something similar happened to me last night and I am still thinking about it, I wish this is true. I don’t know how I ended up having such a dream. But I loved the concept.

So here is the dream I had last night in my sleep.

I was walking down the road to buy something (I guess) and I met with an accident. A serious one the next thing I remember is lot of pain in my body and for a second or so I open my eyes, I see my mom sitting besides me having tears in her eyes.

She is saying something but I am not able to hear anything, there is a strange and uncomfortable calmness I don’t like. I need to hear some noise, what is my mom saying and why is she crying, ————————&mda sh;—A blackout again, I open my eyes for few seconds, this time I see some of my friends some of them are having tears in there eyes and some are looking quite sad, Ahh!! Some weak smiles, some one is asking me something, I see his lips moving but why the hell can’t I hear a single word, or for that matter I am not able to hear any thing. What is going wrong with me, ahh this terrible pain again, has something happened to me…and where am I. I am not able to see anything else other than my friends. Where is my mom, I remember seeing her sitting next to me, and she too was looking sad has something gone wrong? Why can’t I remember anything?

Oh I remember I was heading to the market to buy something right, how come I landed up here? ————————&mda sh;———————A Black out again. AAh….its becoming difficult to open my eyes, feels like my eyelashes have become heavier. Finally I am now able to open my eyes, hey what the f**k is she doing here, she was my ex GF. We parted on a bad note. Why is she sitting next to me? And why is she having tears in her eyes? Oh god thanks I am able to hear now.

ME: What happened to me? Where the hell am I? What are you doing here?

Ex-GF: You met with a serious accident; you are right now on a hospital bed.

You have been unconscious for past 10 days. And I just came to see you.

ME: How serious? Where is mom? How did the accident happen? What is that keeps hurting me so much?

Ex-GF: it’s pretty serious, I cannot tell you the details, and your mom is with the doctor. You have been operated upon must be that is hurting, you want me to call the nurse or the doctor. Do you want something?

Me: No it’s ok; I just need a glass of water. And if possible please call my mom I need to talk to her.

Ex-GF: sure!

She stood up in a hurry, and said that stay awake. I see her running, in the mean while I am trying to understand or rather recall what had happened, what is happening. I tried to move my head, it felt like a tough task. I barely managed to move my head to left and saw my hand covered with bandage and tied to the bed. By the time I try see on my right I hear some noise I see my mom running into the room with the doctor, and some friends. My mom calls my name, I hear her I respond back, and she comes near me sits next to me.

Me: What happen to me mom? Why am I tied to the bed? What is that is hurting me so badly? And I remember seeing you in tears, why were you crying?

Mom: You met with an accident, nothing serious though, in fact the doctor’s here say that you can be taken home in some days, so by then all your pain will be gone. And don’t think so much, you need to take rest. Everything will be alright. And that day I was not crying, it’s just that you had some tears in your eye that’s why you felt that I was crying.

Me: Mom can I tell you something

Mom: Ya beta go on what is it, do you want something?

Me: No mom I am fine I need a glass of water. I just wanted to tell you that you don’t know how to tell a lie. So please tell me the truth please.

Mom: I said you are fine, and I am not lying you just need rest, so don’t talk much; I will bring water for you.

All I remember after that is I saw some friends of mine smiling at me, saying hi and a hello, after that a black out again. But this time, it was different sort of a black out I was able to hear everything, see everything, move my head and I was able to move my entire body. Suddenly I realize that I am floating in the air like a balloon. Ya I like this, I am just flying in the entire room, from one corner to the other I am just flying no need to walk, no need to run just fly like a bird.

I hear a howling sound, and I see towards the direction of the sound, its me lying on the bed, and my mom my friends, some of my relatives, are all standing around my bed they are all crying but the howling is more disturbing. She is crying as if I am dead. She is asking me to wake up shaking my body like anything, but why is that I am not feeling anything. And why I am floating in the air, humans don’t float right. Is it that I am dead, am I really dead? I fly towards my mom, I try to touch her say that I am alive and I can hear her. But nothing is happening she is not even feeling my touch. I go out of the room to see the doctor may be he can tell me what’s wrong with me.

Ah I see him, he is talking to some one, hey that’s my friend’s parents hmm may be they will be able to hear me. I hurriedly fly towards them, I am about to touch the doctor when I hear him saying to my friend’s parents “HE IS NO MORE” “HE JUST PASSED AWAY” you please ask some one to complete all the formalities so that the body can be taken home.

I said to myself, he is gone crazy? I am all alive here, floating in the air in front of him, and he says that I am dead. Wait a minute I am floating in the air how come! I look down to see nothing but a tail like thing below my lower portion. It took me a while to realize that I was dead for sure.

I try to recall how I ended up like this, that’s when I hear one of my friend talking to someone that, he was walking by the road to buy something. He was hit by a speeding truck. He was crushed badly from the stomach to the lower side. He was hospitalized for more than a month. Though the doctors had said that there is only 10% chance that he can survive, but some how it was his mother’s hope that he was kept on ventilator, all this while. Poor aunty she is all alone now. He was a good friend of mine says the other.

So that’s what happened to me, I became sad I didn’t want my mom to be so sad. Well now there is nothing more I can do. But to accept the fact that I am not alive. Now that I am dead, what am I suppose to do? Am I going to hell or heaven or some place else?

Will I be meeting god, I mean the GOD heard so much about him or is it her. Well lost in these thought I fly out of the hospital hmm the location seems pretty much familiar. I see a floating human like figure approaching me.

Hey I know this figure, it’s my dad right. It’s my dad. He is smiling at me and flying towards me. I too fly towards him. I am happy to see him after so many years.

Dad: well come son, well come to this new world.

ME: Hi dad, good to see you. I have missed you a lot in these years. So am I in hell or heaven?

DAD: “LAUGH’s out LOUD” says well you are neither in heaven nor in hell. What we have heard about life after death is not at all true. God has his own way of dealing with us. What we did as humans good or bad cannot be put on the spirit right. Many a times we hurt some one unknowingly but that doesn’t means that our spirits have to pay a price for everything, we did as humans. So he has created a new world for sprits

ME: Dad you are confusing me, you mean to say that after a death as a human in this world I am suppose to die again as a sprit, in a different world and after that will I be taken to god.

DAD: No son you are already with the gods. But there is no concept like hell or heaven. We are god’s children and as any parents would do, god to gives us a second chance to correct our mistakes. It’s only after this second chance he decides what punishment or reward we should get. And the best part is you sit and talk to God on what is correct and what is incorrect after that he lets you decide what you are suppose to do.

ME: So right now I am in a different world right but the only difference here is that god too stays in this same world and you can see him and talk to him.

DAD: No son, you cannot see god, you can only hear his voice. God don’t have a face like humans; we gave him a face so that we could look up to something and pray and we made ourselves believe that gods can take any shape. They can be inside you or outside you. You will never know where god is, but yes if you want to talk to him he will respond back. You will come to know in few days time about the life style of this new world

But first let me take you on a tour of this new world and explain you the basic rules of this world ok.

ME: Hmmm dad, I guess I will learn with the time, but right now I am happy to see you. You know I have to share so many things with you. All this years what all I have been doing and things like that.

DAD: I know everything about you, son I have watched each and every move of yours day in and day out, after all you are my son, and I had to be the guiding soul for you.

ME: So you have been watching me all the while, even when I was flirting around with girls.

DAD: Especially when you were doing that. You were a big flirt out there, ha!!

ME: “Smiling” Dad is it not a sin to talk about all this here, flirting with many girls is a bad thing na.

DAD: Son this world has its own rules; which have been set by gods; you will come to know later on. So let me tell you something about this world

And he starts saying.

This world is quite different from the world you are coming from. All the humans who die there, leave there body, and their sprits travel to this place. They stay here for long time. it’s a second chance. They have to prove that as human they may have committed many mistakes and sins but as a spirit they are not that bad. They have to prove how good they are, and for that they have to do a lot of good deeds. God keeps a check of all their activity and warns them from time to time, but if the sprits still don’t improve then they are punished on the last day of their stay.

You will find lots of shops same like the ones you have seen in the pervious world. The only difference is you don’t pay money. You eat whatever you want and in return you help the shop with its work, no one owns anything here. Hence there is no money culture no one is your boss and no one is your employee. You don’t work and get paid; you help others, and earn good deeds. This world does not tolerate any corruptions, greed, lust or possession. It’s a free and equal world. No one is above you no one is below you. No one is elder to you no one is younger to you.

The only thing above us is God, and God too never orders you anything, God just gives you suggestion. You can sleep, eat, and have fun, work at your will. But just remember one thing what all you do its always recorded and you are always under god’s observation.

Well with this note I see my dad going away from me. Saying we will keep meeting each other. But for now, I need to meet some one else. I look around me. I see spirits all around me. Small kids to elder ones they all look happy playing and floating around.

That’s when I see myself vanishing, and I wake up into this world. Its then I realize that it was just a dream. And since this morning I am thinking

“WHAT A DREAM IT WAS?”
