Control

This is a dream that I had a couple of days ago but I didn't have a chance to write about it until now. And, well, now even the details I did remember are sort of hazy so I guess this is just the lasting impressions of the dream?

I'm in the sports field of an academy in a dueling ring. The weapons aren't actually weapons, though I do have a staff in my hand, but willpower. It's a matter of whose order tops the other, and I manage to win. But I'm left with this horrible feeling after my opponent leaves. I get the feeling that I have a lot of responsibilities, and that I wish I didn't have to duel nor have the power to order other people to do what I want. And I say that "when I have time, classes are easy because they're fun. But they're no fun when I have no time" and then I head back into the school.

This was actually quite a "long" dream in that a lot of stuff happened but I only remember the tail-end because that's when I woke up. But that stupid line at the end stuck with me, even more than the fact that hey, I can order people around! I do wish I had more control over my life but I would never want to control other people. Or maybe my subconscious is letting me know that, actually, I would. I'm writing this after reading about that "honor killing" of Dua Khalil on a forum a friend linked me to and... if I did have the power in my dream, I'd sure be doing some tinkering. But of course I don't so... Well, I'll just leave off here.
