first of all, i don't think this quote applies anymore

ayu said this back during 2000 when she did the Times magazine interview

her state of mind is very different now compared to than

back than, I think she meant that...she doesn't have dreams because she realize there's nothing to dream about, something like her, being a dream of other ppl (i.e. something others can only dream of becoming and achieveing in dreams) is actually a product manufactured by AVEX, she is a product, a product of dream...therefore dreams in today's world are only a commercial product made for people to purchase...since she saw through this commercial aspect of the so-called dream, she felt that she can't really have dreams because dreams are really non-existant

but now, i think her perspective changes, you can see from her lyrics and from her interviews, and from her daily actions and words...i think she has see things around her differently and she has hope again...remember back than most of ayu's songs are unhappy, hopeless and despair..but now...she has happy songs and talks about tomorrow and actually realizing dreams...
