Global Annihilation: How does it feel?

For starters, it is predicted to happen in my religion. I mean it will happen according to my religion and I believe that. But it will happen only after every single living being is dead, down to the last ant. 

There’s no end to these bizarre dreams. I had yet another stupid one. 

Well, it’s not all that stupid after all.

So in the dream there was this stage performance in which my sister was acting. She forgot the last few lines and in a heroic attempt to save the day, I climbed up on the stage. I was just finishing, when these huge tankers and thousands and thousands of soldiers crashed the party.   

Kind of like in the Terminator Movies. (Usually, the contents of a dream would be of recent events. But it had been a long time since I last watched Terminator)

Where the hell did they come from? The entire podium and the crowd were in uproar. It was total chaos. People were shot dead in every direction.  

As my heroic senses got hold of me, I sneaked out to find some way out of this massacre. It was a complete action-packed adventure.

In any case, when I woke up, I was glad to know that it had been just a dream.

However it got me into thinking. What if I died that very morning? What if I died the next day? Who knows, I might not have all the time in the world?

If not by annihilation, by some freak accident? Or what if I just had a heart attack?

And I thought what have I achieved with my life? Nothing so far! 

Just have been living for the sake of living. 

But is that the kind of life I wanna live till the end? Of course not! God knows how many dreams I had in high school? We all do, don’t we? How many of us have actually accomplished those desires. Not very many.

And have I said “I Love You” enough? Have I let my loved ones know, how much I care about them? The answer is again NO. 

What a revealing moment it was?

I realized that thinking about death was not a bad thing after all. It gives you a real boost to get on with life. To follow your dreams. To make you be thankful for each passing day. Because it is yet another chance for you do everything you wanted to do, say everything you wanted to say. Who knows it may be the last day you get to spend with your loved ones. It may your last day on this planet. 

So take the time to say I love you. Let them know that you’re thinking about them. Treat them with a smile. Because tomorrow may never be!

By the way, this is definitely one dream I don't want to see become a reality.  

P.S – Somebody told me that having such dreams is very bad. It disrupts a good night’s sleep. Maybe so, but I don’t mind. It gives me some interesting material to write about. And that is always welcome.
