THESE AWFUL DREAMS

THESE AWFUL DREAMS

She is running to be president
I recognize her in the dream
She is Emma Thompson
The great actress of, 'Remains of the day." and many other films

I didn't know she was running for presidency."  I say to myself
"And what for?"
'She is such a great actress."
Remember her in ,'Howard" End?"
She got an oscar for that.
You should remember her
I knew even in my dreams that she was Emma Thompson

What surprised me was that she has the inklings to be a president and make false promises to the people
You know how many presidents in the world have made the same promises…
"We will do this for you, our people, our dear people."
"We will do that for you our people, our dear people."
"You will have health care, you will have welfare, you will have shelter,
you will have equal rights, you will have justice, you will have prosperity, just vote for me, just vote for me and not the other guy.  With the other guy you people, our people, our dear people will not have a single thing he is promising.  But with me the moment I become the president You my people, our people, our dear people will have everything instantly because I will make sure that you my people will have everything fast and faster."

And the other guy repeat the same fake and false promise worded exactly the same way.
I wonder if the same writer goes back and forth and write the same speech for both nominees?
Its a great way to make tons of money.  Write just one speech and make two copies and give it to the both parties.  It has to be this way because both candidates utter the same exact words.
And the one selected does nothing he promised and keep saying,"THings take time, things take time."
And then the eight years pass and then the new candidates go through the same speech written 100 years ago…..

So what the hell Emma Thompson is thinking.
First of all I can't comprehend that she will even consider to become part of the same fake destiny and
make fake promises to the human beings who are naive and ignorant and desperate for their lives to change but those lives will never change and then they will die.
I thought that she knew that because she is a humanist and she have been playing so many characters where people's lives never change no matter what, under no circumstances.  People have been put
under circumstances where the conditions of their fate will not change.  Its decided already.
Nothing will happen because they have been put in positions where nothing can and nothing will change their lives just like that butler Anthony Hopkins played in, Remains of the day."

He was a butler and thats how he will stay and his lord of the mansion was a lord and thats how he will stay.  And the English butler is obedient, subservient and totally repressed and in love with Emma Thompson's character who is a maid in that rich house hold and is totally in love with the butler but
nothing happens, their circumstances don't move an inch forward towards a rich, fulfill-filling lives.
It was very tragic and sad how the movie ended and it was a beautiful work of art, just the title,
'Remains of the day.'  is so nostalgic, so melancholy, so lost.

I always feel a shiver of pain, a tinge of pinch, a feel of something un-describable at the time of
the meeting of dawn and dusk……
When there is some light left and one knows that this remaining light will soon be engulfed by
the darkness of the un-ending, scary, nightmare ridden night…..
One want to grasp that ray of fading light and put it in your bed room so it won't be so dark when the night comes and frighten you…………….Dreams are all about the time passed and time to come……..
And the idea of both the past and the future is scary when one feels that one has lost most of life and the time assigned to one and haven't gained much and now the time is coming to go, go with that fading light at the end of a wasteful day with the same promise of,"Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow."
To quote Shakespeare…who else can write ,LIKE THAT…."LIKE THOSE WORDS, "TOMORROW AND TOMORROW AND TOMORROW" AND HAVE SUCH DEPTH OF MEANING AND ETERNITY ATTACHED TO IT…..

SO WHAT I WAS EXPERIENCING IN THE DREAM WAS THAT WHY SUCH A GREAT ACTRESS IS NOW A CANDIDATE TO BE THE PRESIDENT?
DOES SHE WANT TO LIE/
WAS SHE A LIER?
WAS SHE A LIER WHEN SHE WAS PLAYING ALL THOSE GREAT CHARACTERS?

Then in the dream she had a huge nervous breakdown right on camera
A huge nervous breakdown.  She was crying hysterically.  She was out of control.
Perhaps she forgot that she was not in a movie.  She forgot that this was real and billions of people were watching her and the moment the cameras came in front of her, she had a break down
And I knew she was going to be disqualified.
They can't choose a president who seems to be out of control.  And Emma Thompson was so out of control.  I was so glad that she had that breakdown and she will not be a president and she will just be Emma Thompson, that wonderful and fabulous actress that she is and my dream seemed like it will end as a happy dream which is so un-usual but then they whisked her away and then later announced that she is fine and will continue her speech in a few minutes.

"Oh1 So she is still running to be a president."
'What a disaster this dream is like all my dreams…like all of them…every night, night after night….
