Some people have told me that the feeling of falling while you are sleeping is a severe sign of stress. That if you actually where to hit the ground you would die in your sleep. And that's why we wake up before we hit the ground.
I ask these things....HOW in the hell do they know this? Who has fallen, hit the ground, died, and then rose from the dead to tell about it??? Seriously, this is absurd.
BUT maybe the theory is true. We always wake up in the middle of falling, we never hit the ground. Do we? No. We are in enough conscious mind to wake ourselves up and keep from going splat!
So, then I ponder this...If we are falling because of stress, and stress isn't exactly coveted or wished for, then why don't we just let ourselves fall to the ground and end it all? OK, that sounds morbid, like a death wish or a suicide note waiting to happen. Exactly! That is why we wake up...no one really wants to die. Stress or no stress, life is most important here.
If I should wake before I fall, it's because I choose to live.

Amanda: Who has fallen, hit the ground, died, and then rose from the dead to tell about it???
Jesus? Lazarus? Tabitha? Just a few suggestions!
yes, but in their dreams? Or were they awake when they fell?
I was always told that if you died in your dreams you would die in real life.
But I had a friend who was constantly being murdered in her dreams.
Kinda threw cold water on that theory.
