{W}hen you're dreaming, you're not the one calling the shots. So it's a reprieve.

In Anne Lamott's "Imperfect Birds," the author reflects on the nature of dreaming and its relationship to control. She suggests that when we dream, we surrender our agency and allow our subconscious to take over. This can be seen as a form of escape, offering a break from the conscious pressures of real life.
The idea that dreams provide a reprieve highlights the contrasts between our waking decisions and the unpredictable narratives crafted during sleep. Lamott's insights prompt readers to ponder the balance between control and surrender in their own lives.
