Dreams

Had one of those dreams last night, that seemed to kind of sum up where I feel my life is at and where it is going in a way. Unfortunately, it was a pretty depressing dream. I don't remember a whole lot of it, but the parts that I remember are the parts that really stick out. It basically took place at a crowded outdoor park. Im there in the middle of the crowd, and Im kinda confused, trying to figure out what is going on. I see my friend in the distance. He was a really good friend, someone I felt I always could count on to be there, and that he would always be my best friend. I shouted his name to get his attention. He looked right at me, and then without really acknowledging me he just looked away and kept walking off. It seemed like there might have been someone there with him, a female figure holding his hand. He just kept walking, and I got a feeling in my stomach that told me that was probably the last time I would ever see him. The next part of the dream that sticks out happens when I somehow wander into a very busy street right next to the park. My car is parked there, and one of my co-workers is there fixing it, or something. He gets up, and says to me something like "there, you should be able to figure out the rest yourself". He walks off, and I take a look at my car. There are tons of screws and nails all over the ground, and I have no clue what parts of the car they go to. Meanwhile there are other cars on the street, some zooming past me, others honking they're horns, while others are behind me trying to somehow get around. I want to try to fix my car, but I have no idea where to start.
So yea, those were the two parts of my dreams that I remember fairly clearly. I definitely don't feel like it takes a skilled psychiatrist to figure out the meaning behind my dreams, especially knowing what is going on in my life. I knew right away what the dreams symbolized, and it was just another unpleasant reminder of where I am at right now. Hopefully tonight brings me a more hopeful rest.
