I had a dream where I was in my bedroom and noticed that it was arranged in an old way that I had since rearranged a month ago. I suggested to myself that I was in a dream and tried to wake myself up. I woke up into yet another dream where the room was in its current arrangement. I woke up shortly after for real this time, into reality.

I woke up to the sun beaming through the window into my eyes. Maybe I was more lucid/aware than usual for that reason.

But I have no way of knowing whether the control/awareness I had in that dream was any different than the illusion of control/awareness and decision-making I have in any other dream.

It seems like quite a leap to assume I was in control just because I dreamed I was.
