I Worry About What My Subconscious Mind Says About Me as a Person

I sometimes worry about what my subconscious mind says about me as a person. No, not in the sense that I think my subconscious mind talks about me behind my back. But, you know, your raw subconscious mind, isn't that supposed to be your true self? The one that isn't putting on an act?

So last night, I dreamed that I became able to time-travel. Not in a Back To the Future way, but more in a Groundhog Day kind of way, where I could go back and literally relive moments.

Faced with the infinite possibilities of time travel--the ability to fix past mistakes, or pick winning lottery numbers, or save people from death and disaster--what did my subconscious mind come up with?

Without missing a beat, my dream-self thought, "Ooo, I could eat that doughnut again, and the minute I finished it, I could go back and eat it AGAIN, and I could keep doing that like 8 times in a row! It would be like the Neverending Doughnut!"

?!

(In my defense, the doughnut I'd just eaten in my dream was a particularly fine one.)
