Whether realistic or not, nightmares or good, people have devoted thought and research to the dreams that occurs when sleeping. The deepest of them is known as R.E.M. sleep. Psychology has its own theories about what dreams can mean. There are many prefer them to the real world. Sometimes even those in comas that are not braindead, still can dream. Tests that show brain activity show waves indicating they're dreaming.
Ninety percent of people however can never recall the dreams they had once they had woken up. Those who do, most of the time they wish more than anything they can live either in their dreams or make them a reality.
So what if you could actually do that?
What if you were given the opportunity to live inside your greatest dream? The only thing is the price or consequence.
The price you pay for being able to live in your greatest dream is that you never woke up. There's no more waking up to go to your job. No more waking up to your loved ones or anything like that. Meaning if that in moment you dream your greatest dream and your loved ones aren't in your dreams, then there's a chance you will never see them again.
There have been the rarest of occasions where a person has taken the offer but wound up in their worst nightmares. Now for the rest of their lives, they are stuck living in that nightmare. The only to stop it is when they die of old age or from utter fear.
So if you had the chance to live in your dreams, would you take it?
