The Dream Within a Dream

I had a dream in which I could fall asleep and dream a different past for myself. When I woke from this dream within a dream, it would manifest into a new reality.

All I had to do was fall asleep and dream, and I’d wake up in a different city, with a different job and a different lifestyle.

I quickly became addicted to the newness of it all and soon barely found myself awake. I was in a constant hurry to fall back asleep and dream, and see what different life would unfold.

Every moment brought a new family, new love, new hobby, and new addiction. One moment I was a workaholic, the next an alcoholic.

I think this dream was telling me something about the dangers of always chasing newness.
