OUTSIDE MY WINDOW #7

DISCLAIMER the content and character below is fictional. This is a blog segment where we write a monologue or story depicting fictional characters .Today we are sharing a monologue called  “Dream” written by Lauren Brady.

Dream.

Do you ever wake up from a dream? 

We’ll I know of course everyone wakes up… but I mean, like truly wake up? 

From all the expectations, the reality, the world. Do we all wake up one day and realize what we’ve done? To the world… To our children…I’m not a… a scientist, but logically there must be an answer… right? Some percentage, some chance, that we all wake up and realize that we are a bunch of scared children who never grew up and we are all just trying to do the best we can. But no one knows what the “best” is. We all have our own definition, we all have our own dreams, everyone has their own right and wrong…

But what if that stopped? Just for a second… and the company wasn’t crumbling, and our stock wasn’t falling, and our children were thriving, and you loved me again –

Just listen to me! 

I promise – just for one second.

Would it work… Would we work – if we just woke up and knew what to do? 

Life would be simpler… We’d probably just fuck that up too.
