A Near Death Experience

A point to ponder… why I wonder when we are young and get jerked awake by a dream or a nightmare are we hugged and comforted given the assurance “It’s not real, it’s not real!!” and when we are older and get jerked awake by a dream or a nightmare we tell ourselves with great relief “It’s not real, it’s not real!!” whether young or old we will however marvel at how unbelievably real it was but will gratefully accept the comforting fact that it wasn’t real not any of it it all happened inside our heads but when someone has a near-death experience and they tell us of all the wondrous things that they saw and did inside their heads whilst clinically dead there are those of us who emphatically believe that what went on inside that head on that occasion was in fact real proving beyond doubt that there is life after death that that experience fuelled and moulded by the unknown forces at play inside our heads whilst clinically dead actually happened what I wonder is the difference between the two all of it every single bit of it happens inside our heads.
