The surprise at the direction events or characters react can be never ending. But even more surprising to me is the self-acting or responding in a new and unexpected way. That is to say the one that is aware and experiencing these changes. The self, you and I. The one awake but now sleeping. Self-acting far from what’s expected. Self-consciousness that acts differently than we would when awake? On second thought there are moments of surprise of ones actions wile still awake but so much more rare.
