from where my body was sleeping. The location was an almost
perfect replica of the physical version. The only two things that
were different were the vast number of people out on the street
and an unfamiliar overly-friendly community atmosphere I
sensed from them.
The highly positive energy that I felt would suggest that I
was in a slightly 'higher-dimensional counterpart' of the

more natural and joyous it felt than our dense, physical world.
As I walked around, I found myself standing on a pavement

I almost got carried away with the feeling and made a conscious
