I do think this "life" is fantasy, we wake up at moment of "so called death" so this made incredible sense to me.

I like the contradiction in the last line, its uplifting...Delice

Profound truth, my friend, Lasaad! Death is our awakening to life eternal. Blessings!

A perpetual cycle of life and death Lasaad happening instantaneously, part of some inexplicable fantastic reality, we all have our own personal beliefs in whatever that may be, but all I take for granted is this exact moment, an excellent thought provoking piece, cheers David

Absolutely true David, We exist in a universe where everything seems to be a daydream, where many things are unfathomable, and that everyone has their own interpretations. The only alternative is to live a happy life. Have a wonderful weekend

I always thought it that way, we are asleep in this world, when we die, we awaken, to another land another place, home !

True, dear Rose. In my opinion, the physical body limits our cognitive ability rather than expands it since our subconscious is far more important than what is consciously accessible.
