Thin Line Between Dreams And Reality

Aug 21, 2006 23:42

It feels as if for me, life is continually moving faster and faster every day. Not only does it feel like my days are merely hours out of a day which is really a week in reality, but sometimes it seems like it's hard to distinguish real life from my dreams.

It's a weird thing, because sometimes during school, or during a rehearsal, it just doesn't feel like reality, you know? It feels like that present moment is part of a dream, a memory, a recollection, a reminiscence. And in turn, there are times in my dreams where it feels more realistic than real life.

This makes me worried as to if I am really living my awake life to my fullest. I don't want to just sleep through real life and be awake during my dreams. I don't want to make a wrong decision because I think I can get away with it, and I find out it's really a dream. I need to just WAKE UP when it's not a dream and make sure that I am aware of my surroundings.

Time is such a weird compendium. I am typing this up right now, but saying "now" is basically false since it was "then", but really now; that doesn't make much sense at all, but if life keeps happening, does it really just keep speeding up, as if a car were accelerating? Will life ever not go a hundred miles a minute?
