In my dream I was walking alone one night in my neighborhood when all of a sudden I was no longer in my neighborhood but in a strange place. I felt uncomfortable at first, but was soon at ease walking through this place. It was beautiful. The flowers and trees were like none I had ever seen before. I walked for miles and miles. As I walked, the colors became more vivid, the trees shone more brightly.
Eventually, when I wanted to return home, I and saw that everything was getting old and starting to die. I didn't know what was happening, but I kept walking. Even after all the flowers and trees had died, I still kept walking. The place seemed ugly to me now. I just kept walking and soon I was back home.
