The rain continues and i am having clear dreams these days. I just thought of recording one here.
I am walking through a regular lane and lot of intuitions hit me. I have this strong conviction that they are going to be true. Later i see these two little girls playing with their toys and then they get critically injured just from those simple toys. The next scene i see these three women( i remember them as movie stars) using these girls as oracles. Their hands are terribly wounded and these women press those tiny hands to inflict more pain so that these girls tells them their future.
I know it is a bit horrible thing to dream. Dont think that i am having such thoughts on my own. I think these images are inspired by the precogs in minority report. When i saw the movie some time before the idea of trapping three women into a comatose state for predicting crime stirred me.
And the second thing is about women being portrayed as doing this cruelty. I always have this prejudice that women could be more cruel than men. My own teachers instill such a feeling in me. They used to beat us brutally while the men folk were always gentler. On second thoughts male teachers also used to beat us brutally but only after we were old enough to take it. While the female teachers were indiscriminate.
