Meant to Die

Hey guys! I'm sorry I haven't updated for a while, but this was the only dream since then that struck my heart the most..

July 25, 2019

I'm already loosing parts of it, but I'll try to sum it up as best I can. So my mom got a call from a man that wanted to meet us to talk about- well, me. Me and my family went to meet up with the guy strangely on the side of a highway bridge.

And as the man talked with us he showed us the layout of a small facility with the words "Facility of the soon Deceased". Confused and a little sick at the sight of those words, I asked the man what this was all about.

He explained to us that I was on the list of people meant to die this upcoming year to lessen the population. I was the only one in my family to be on that horrifying list, and there was nothing that we could do about it. Turns out that I wouldn't be living out my last years of high school, and my next year of high school is going to be spent saying goodbyes, packing up my things, planning the funeral, and other sad things. I wouldn't be able to finish my goal on going to the Air Force Academy in Colorado, I won't be able to watch my children grow old, and I won't be able to have that pride of finishing your biggest goal you've ever thought of.

And as I was staring into space, shaking with grief, sorrow, and utter disbelief (and I actually did feel all these things), the man drove away, and so did my parents with my siblings. Maybe to just give me some time walking so I could get all this through my head, and I did start walking, but it didn't go away. And I found myself walking into a building to find my friends, laughing as the birds flew and landed in the lake through the window as they made racing sounds. But all I could do was make a small, faint smile that only I could notice.

The thing is guys, I felt that same grief when I woke up and contemplated on what I had just "experienced". I knew it wasn't real, but I also knew that it is going to be happening in the future, where people big and small are going to be killed so the Earth may have space for all of us. And that- my followers- is the most sickening thing I've realized from this one dream, because it's going to happen, not now- but maybe to your great grandchildren, now THAT is a sad thought.
