i dont know anything of the dream but...

the loading screen insignia is awfully similar to the breaking benjamin one, and i hope you figure out what it means

TheMillz responds:

Yea dude, Breaking Benjamin's kickass. :)

Interesting..........

The volleyball nets could mean that your trying to overcome some sort of problem. And when you see your self all distorted and scribly like that it could mean that your unsure of yourself. That's realy all I can think of. Good Job!

it brings to mind "The Road Less Traveled By"

my opinion- your dream seems to be a compilation of both your self woth and your view of the world around you the running figure being both yourself and your assessment of the other sheep in the flock the nets and cardboard trees seem to be ominous rumblings of your contempt for the fake life you live unhappy and also incomplete. the pain in your sides in not from running i would think but from tiering and wishing the road would become less dismal a needed beacon on the horrison that you have not found the ruined building being that once bright beacon but only an illusion of happiness that you see as your goal but upon arriving see that the road you travel is not worth the effort. maybe the dream is a message telling you to reassess your life and find your beacon.

Intense.

When you have dreams with that much detail they almost always mean something. The bit that got me was the volleyball nets, they almost look like barriers don't they? Lots of needless barriers. You manage to run past them, with pain in your sides. It's almost like you will be or already are working hard to get past troubles and barriers in life. And then you end up with a cliff to your right and an empty, almost destroyed house. It's like after all the hard work, the goal isn't all that worth it. The cliff on your right could suggest somewhere in your head you just want to just give up. The trees at the beginning as well, flat and on either side; restrictions in your life all around you, but easily passable.

Nice dream, looked cool.

excellent

i do hope you captured your dream close to how it happened in your head. if you didn't it was still enjoyable to watch.

as for what it might mean:
you're watching yourself live life, but not really living it. you're following the path laid out for you... probably by someone else. you see the world around you as meaningless, or fake. shallow, and unvaluable. not worth interacting with. not worth your time. you run through, hoping to find something new, something better, but all that does is give you an encounter with something worse: stress, anxiety, fear. pressure. expectations you're not sure you can meet. but you'll do your damndest. you don't want to get caught. you don't want anyone to realize you're just doing the motions, and not really paying attention to your own life. you see an end to it all, and you're pushing hard for it. all you want is something real, some breathing room in your life... but when you get there... you realize it's not complete. it's empty, just like the rest of your life. but at least it's safe, right?

suggestion: interact with your world. pay attention to your life. it only happens once, and when you miss it... you miss it. have a real conversation with your friends, your family, your co-workers. go for a walk in the park, and pay attention to the depth of things. touch the trees, put your feet in a cold river. stop treating the world like some fake thing you want out of. yeah, there's bullshit, but once you're through that, reality doesn't really change much.
