Scientist say death is like the powering off of a computer.

Some say it will be a heaven or hell depending on how and what you did with your time.

Others suggest death will be exactly what the individual strongly thinks it is. If you think it's heaven or hell it will be either heaven or hell. If you think it is the end of everything that you ever perceived it will simply be the end which brings us back to scientific perception of the shutting down of a computer.

Those that have come back from heart attacks simply say the light bulb is on and then suddenly it is simply off. Others claim outer body experiences such as watching yourself leave your body.

The most comforting I have researched would be the suggestion that death is nothing more than a waking from a dream itself. Just like the dreams we awake from when we sleep slip into the backs of our minds with no mind to them at all as if it were nothing worth remembering. A perception that, in death, we will simply wake from our dream (life itself) into another plane or reality and think nothing more of our actual current physical lives as just another dream as when we sleep, dream, and awake again.

This brings me to the thought that perhaps as incredible as lucid and surreal our dreams can be as we live our current physical lives; we can change, mold, and sculpt our physical realities just as easily as those lucid and surreal dreams that we have when we sleep. Sometimes we do not realize we are dreaming when we sleep and have no control over them as they make no sense. Sometimes we realize we are dreaming and we can do whatever we wish in those dreams.

However, science has seemed to come to the conclusion that dreams are nothing more than how our memories work in order to make those memories and experiences stick. Just like playing a video game for the first time, one would be very bad at it struggling to create the muscle memory of the hand eye coordination. Only until one sleeps and lets their brains do the dreaming memory dance would we wake, play the game again, and become better than we first were as if one would never increase in experience if they never slept. And that brings me to the conclusion that death may not be much more than the shutting down of a computer while every other possibility is nothing more than a pipe dream.

Yet, there is so much we do not understand about memory and have yet to harness into our physical world which still leads to the possibility of those pipe dreams.
