I only remember part of the end of one dream from last night.
The dream took place in a fictional version of D as I drove around in my automobile during the day, exploring common slightly fictional versions of certain areas in D, like the neighborhoods where my aunt GC used to live & near the Junior High School.
I remember driving around those nicer areas at first and then I drove near a fictional version of the gas station near the BB store, and I drove around looking at the decline of D & of the nation/culture/world/my life/et cetera in general.
Seeing empty and missing businesses that have closed down, empty & abandoned & worn homes, jobless people like myself, people with low-paying/low or no benefit/overall bad jobs that they do not like, and many other signs/forms of decline.
I compared what I saw from my memories of the past, some real & some memories of past dreams of this place, with the reality that I was seeing before my eyes; and the decline was obvious, and the decline has gone on for a long time & it seems that it will continue.
Sad and pretty hopeless I thought/felt, though there is hope and options to change/stop the decline, but it is not likely to happen due to majority of people who make up/control our society/culture/nation/world/et cetera; and so it will probably continue until it completely collapses, hopefully sooner than later.
It was just another normal day living/dreaming life in a falling/collapsing empire watching parts of your life & the environment/world around you crumble as well, the pattern continues, but hoping that it will end already (the empire, the pattern, future empires, the negative things that we know we can do better than/change, maybe my life, et cetera) or that things would change for the better instead of waiting until after the collapse/fall even though that is not likely.
That is all that I can remember, and I woke up.
The end,
