Something To Look Forward To

A recent explanation of a dream by a friend caused me to realize that I no longer consciously remember my own. I believe that we can only appreciate the good things in this world because of the fact that we have bad things to compare them to. I started to think about the application of this idea to every day life and the way I perceive my place in it. I don't have a firm grasp on my intentions or motivations but I do have a good sense of how I feel internally. Recently I've felt somewhat out of place, misdirected, or just .outside of my head. I'm toying with the idea that because I no longer remember my dreams, I in turn have trouble grasping onto how real reality is. I have no unconscious state to compare my coherent thoughts to. I'm not positive as to how much my conscious and my unconscious affect my dreams, but I do know that my bearing on reality is directly affected by how unreal my conscious is. The line seems to be blurred lately, and I blame that on the lack of appreciation I have for the reality I'm surrounded by. Anything that alters my mind in a way that is anything but the "uge" becomes more appealing as time wares on.

Anything that takes me away from reality seems to better establish where I was before I left. What is wrong with the idea of misguided direction. What good is direction if you have no idea where it's taking you?
