What if life was one big lucid dream?

or that I am some kind of indigenous person in the distant past on a kind of spirit jouney and will cleanse the universe of its evil by throwing it all up...

This is one of a few conclusions myself and a friend of mine have come to entertain the thought of over the years..

I could go into detail on my thoughts, but there just that.. thoughts, and do nothing but detract from the moment.
 
Why are there such things as a peach, a rock, water, or even protons and electrons? Why does anything exist? Could everything be just a figment of an imagination somewhere on a level different from objects and space as we know it? Imagine our souls existing on this level. These could be the ones having this lucid dream. This is one of an infinite number of guesses. Delving far into considering what existence really is, is like trying to understand the concept of infinity.

If this is all a lucid dream it means my dream sucks, but it would also mean that we set limits for ourselves, gravity, why people can't just fly, pain, government, death, love, pain, wars. It would also mean that we have some control over things, yet we can't do as we please like read minds or control, I don't know, fire. That makes me ask, is it that we are all connected in our 'dream' and share similar ideas through spirit or our subconscious to each other blending then together, creating this world we 'live' in or did I come up with all history, all rules for the world, names for everything, reason behind them, definitions and all the limits on my own. But then how is it that I learn new things? Do I create them in my subconscious and project them though someone else in my dream to have it make more sense? To keep the dream 'alive'.
If I am the dream and my dream self is in reality then realities muffed up. Some of my dreams I skip around in different bodies and sometimes I'm no one, just watching things happen. Makes me question, what if my dream self isn't in 'reality' but is just in a different dimension, a different 'world' but is my equal in that dimension and hence the connection between us. Hence the 'dreams' and if that we're true then that means she dreams of me and this life.
Or, if we are a dream, if we don't really exist, then it could always be looked at, this is a test. What if we aren't Truly awake, what if this is all a test to see how strong we are, what type of person we are. And then, when we die we truly awake, or if we failed we start over again. But then that would bring into question a type of god or higher being controlling it. Cause who would be judging us to see of we are 'worthy' of true life....

If none of this really exists then that means there is no purpose to this life, no great god, no true love, no reason to carry on with everything. But if it is as you say, um, doomed to keep repeating I guess, then there'd be no point in not seeing this 'dream' to the end.

...sorry its so long you just have an awesome question
