Dream Journal
I was walking through a crowded mall with my brother John. He was on crutches and his left foot was wrapped in a large ace bandage.
We came upon a racing event; the goal was to be the first person to run four laps around a large sand pit. John entered the reace, and I worried that he would not only lose, but also reinjur his foot.
At the sound of the start gun, thirty men took off around the sand pit. John hopped into the center of the pit where the ground was a few feet lower than at the edges. He ran four small laps around the center point .
Watching him I knew that he was cheating. But then I realized that the rules didn’t say the winner must run a lap around the perimiter of the sand pit.
John won the race.
