A typical day for someone living in our world might start off with waking up early for breakfast with the president. It could be sneaking off at midnight to hunt for hidden treasures. It could be running down to the nearest supermarket, to stock up for the upcoming zombie apocalypse, or down to the bank to cash in that check for 10 million dollars. You could have people waking up from 12-year long comas, to find themselves tightly bound by ropes, held captive by a group of 6-headed extraterrestrials, or you could have other people waking up in luscious forests, surrounded by trees of all colours, and animals with 12 legs and 4 arms. Some people could even be doing all of these things in one day, and still more. One person's life here is never the same as anyone else's. But there is one thing that every single person in this world does in common, at the end of every day. When everyone turns off their lights, climbs into bed, shuts their eyes, and falls asleep. And then they wake up in reality.
