Have you seen the movie In Time? It has a powerful message mixed within the violence and action. But ultimately, it is about a time when time is currency, and when you run out of time, you die. The rich all live in their own area with millions of years to spare, while the poor are living by the hour, working- literally- to stay alive.

Talk about a strange dream. What exactly was my mind trying to tell me in all this? Or am I silly to be searching for a message in this?
~it was more the anticipation~

The other night, I had a dream with a similar story line. Time was our currency, but instead of dying when we run out of time, we are hunted for sport. Adds another element of entertainment I suppose. Mason was in my dream, and he was complaining about Time as currency- I told him that he wasn't allowed to complain, because when we watched the movie he said he liked it.
In my dream, a friend and I were struggling. We were down to minutes and we had nothing else valuable to sell to get us more time. Somehow we ended up in some kind of a brothel. These men came in after us, and right away they hired us.
The man who chose me, I quickly learned, had prosthetic arms. He started taking himself a part, and I was doing all I could to not be completely disgusted with what I was about to do. As I was sitting there waiting, I heard noises indicating other transactions were not being delayed as mine was. I wished to just get this over and done with so I could escape from this current hell.
Right as it was about to start, a man rushed in (who was not Mason, but whom apparently I was in a relationship with). He declared he loved me, and then proposed to me- not with a diamond, but with a huge bank of time!
I soon learned that the man with the prosthesis was in fact completely artificial! He was a robot my fiance had created to watch and protect me.
How romantic...?
I also learned that the time given to me by my fiance was stollen from his brother, and his brother was now after us. More action and entertainment followed as we were being chased by an angry, bitter man with hunters after him.
My future brother in law died having jumped into a ravine following us. We were both quite devastated, but apparently he was a corrupt man, and he had what was coming to him.
