The Chinese philosopher Zhuangzi woke up after dreaming that he was a butterfly and was unsure whether he is a man dreaming he was a butterfly or a butterfly dreaming he is a man. So my question is, how can we be sure that we aren't dreaming right now and this is all real life?
I would say that we know that we are awake and in the real world because we experience new stuff and emotions we couldn't experience in a dream. Because as far as i know you cannot dream of stuff you've never experienced before. But that also could be wrong so im not quite sure.
