Dream: Mars and back

Last night I had a dream that I went to Mars and came back decades later. It portrayed earth on my return very vividly. I don't think there was a lot of detail of going to mars, being on mars, or coming back, but I 'remembered' what it was like in my dream. As we flew over Earth for our final descent, it was obvious that earth had become a concrete planet. Completed inhabited over land and sea. What struck me the most on my return was my lost interest in material gain and money in general. Also my lost need for personal space. I didn't understand how it could have gotten like this or why people could be so enamored with the idea of amassment of wealth and possessions after all we'd learned about how the idea of individual and corporate wealth building, for its own sake, had proved self destructive.

I no doubt had this dream because of my current reading of Green Mars.
