I had a fun one.
I was riding a flying bicycle. This might not sound so strange in a dream - except for the fact that I knew I could fly on my own. I paused, thinking, "Wait... if I can fly, why am I riding a flying bicycle? There's no need to, given I could go at the same speed on or off."
So I hopped off the bike, and took a really, really close look at the grass. I could make out the individual blades with perfect clarity, so I looked at a nearby tree, and could make out all the detail on the bark. Pausing again, I thought, "This is very strange - it's very likely I'm dreaming... but I'll go with it for the moment."
About five minutes later I woke up, at which point I suddenly said "B****! I knew I was dreaming!"
Lucid dreaming's fun.
--------------------
The value of an individual is not numerically assignable. Given the individual's infinite capacity to affect change (for better or for worse), it follows that their value is just as infinite. Logically then, not only are all individuals of equal value, but all possible combinations and groupings of individuals are of equal value, and finally, no matter an individual's past actions, their capacity to affect positive change is not diminished.
The value of the individual is sacrosanct, but actions must be directed in an effort to affect positive change.
