Reviews for "Filtered Reality"

Nice

But dreams are never sent by an outside force or being. They are a way of taking in the things that happen to you in your awake hours. In a dream you can only see things you have seen somewhere in your life, they're just mixed up in sometimes very complicated ways. Although I do think it can be a way to look into your true feelings about things. Just after I had an ugly argument with my mother, I dreamt that she was dead. As I said, it's just a way to take in the things that happen to you.
The animation was very nice though.

really cool

This was really artistic and deep! The nets could be constraits on your time or laws the bind your freewill.

I had a dream once where I was in a fancy hotel and found my ugly classroom from school, some eccentric science teacher gives me watermelon to eat outside. The play yard is outdoors, but has a strange foam tile ceiling. I eat the watermelon and it gives me the power to fly. I fly around freely and no one seems to notice care or perhapps they are just an illusion. Suddenly while flying I tumble into a another reality a dark bayou, I am in the muddy water and pull myself out onto a rotten wooden deck. There is garbage bags strewn about. I sneak around feeling uneasy, toward a light coming from a window with blicds down. Two men talk silohetted, I don't know what they said, but I sensed they meant to harm the people on the other side. I struggled through the swamp to try to warn everyone, but I wake up. What does mine mean?

Filtered Reality is right

Your title says it all, take off the filters and look at life for what it is...beautiful and a gift....your dream is you running through your life which has an inevitable end..a burning empty house...stop running and accept the consequences dont be scared...do the things that you want in this life because in the end you wont remember the money/debt/jobs etc. you will remember the relationships you had with those around you and overcoming the things that scared you in life...BUT hey its just an opinion and i only give it because i think u will understand it...nice flash...Peace

Neat dream

I believe the interpretation for your dream is as follows:
The path is life, the darkness you see when you try to look whats in the distance represents that no one truly knows what tomorrow holds. The the unreal repeating unreal trees represents the unending problems in life that don't directly effect you or slow you down. The red sky, the rain the chilled unseen mist all represents something nagging at you. You running is your way of dealing with life. The tiredness in your hips and you slowing reflects your lack desire/ability to continue with your life is a present. The nets coming up and your anxiety about stopping represent that if you stop you will pass into an oblivion, abyss, nothingness . See the house in the distance repesents the you are looking for a refuge. The totem represents some type of gatekeeper/guardian spirit that keeps the refuge from being consumed by the abyss and problems of life. The portal represents you entering the refuge and you no longer fear being consumed by the abyss. The cliff(being no more path) and the fact you stop running represents you can finally end your life in peace.

That being said I recommend you find what ever this refuge is and the protection it offers.

Not bad, Nice openness to it,

The flash itself wasn't badly done. As for the interpretation there are multiple ways to look at it.
-The positive way would be that you realize that you have to keep moving, prevent the complacency that the nets cause you and hope to reach some goal that you must reach regardless of what pain it brings, even if familiar.
-The negative way is that you feel restrained by everyday actions and are trying to run away from something important or necessary, but you still seem to be going through life in some regular way. It seems more like the house that has itself exposed with the totem pole next to it is your safe haven. The totem pole itself might be some signal carved in wood that signifies a safe place. So thus you might be more relaxed, more open in your home than anywhere else.
-As for the nuetral interpretation, you might be rushing through you life if anything, despite what pain comes at you from the experiences of life. The nets are most likely your self restraint, probably something from childhood where you liked to play volleyball or the like. The fact that they dissapear signfies that you feel relaxed in your own home. Like you don't feel the need to restrain yourself anymore.

Of course all of this is interpretation and nothing more, to truly understand you we would have to take your personal history into account, your behaviors, and how your current situation is to assess what the dream actually means.
