You will not live in the future,

Nah it's a thing, called confirmation bias. People are more likely to believe ideas that fit into their personal beliefs and to throw out ideas that invalidate their beliefs.

People can get past confirmation bias, but you have to be aware of it.

So death, the most terrifying of ills, is nothing to us, since so long as we exist, death is not with us; but when death comes, then we do not exist. It does not then concern either the living or the dead, since the former it is not, and the latter are no more.

Well let's face it, I'm not going to have the urge to summarise Plato's cave theory as soon as I wake up and still feeling sleepy any time soon so I wouldn't go there if I'm honest hahaha :XD: That's how I would define half asleep anyway :yawn:
