When we die is it possible that our last dream is what some would feel as being heaven or hell? If a person feels they have corrected their sinfull ways would there last dream be of a place called heaven? If a person feels they didn't do all they could have, does this mean their last dream is of hell? Dreams seem to last for hrs/days but in reality they only last minutes or less, so could death be the last dream of all?

Hamlet thought so! "To die, to sleep, to sleep, perchance to dream, aye, there's the rub, for in that sleep of death, what dreams may come, when we have shuffled off this mortal world..."

Interesting thought and one which has a lot of merit, IMO.

You could look at the bible's new testament with this in mind.
Much was spoken of in respect of thoughts of forgiveness, love, etc. This outlook could eventually effect the dreams.

Except for that plucking the eye out stuff.
