It's all about those tiny rebellions. You walk on red at a crosswalk, go slightly above the speed limit, walk-in through the exit at the store.
You do anything in your power to feel free for a couple of seconds. Anything to make the mundane interesting again, anything to prove that you are free from the shackles of this existence.

Welcome to the Brick of Fiction. A post with compact story. In today’s Brick the prompt is: Write a story about a world where people invented a way to record and share dreams with each other. And I challenge YOU to write your own story in 300-1000 words.
Henry loved running, long distances.
His hero was the famous, Henry Rono, also from Kenya, who in 1978, set four world records in an 81-day span. Henry dreamed that one day he would be a famous runner.
He had just turned ten, soon they Army would come get him and make him fight in the rebellion. Yet he still dreamt.
Rebellion burned in her blood. A blow must be struck, not for her, but for those many thousands, nay millions, like her. This was where the resistance started, where finally someone would have the courage to take the first step and say NO! Enough is enough!
She held out nearly till bedtime. Those green beans didn’t taste any better cold.
