Hi. |

Browsing the forums I find that a lot of people talk about exploring their dream world, talking to DCs, and accomplishing various goals they have set for themselves. Why do we do it? Just because we can? In the few lucid dreams I've had that lasted longer than a few seconds, I follow a story. I will either continue the plot the dream has set for me, or I will create a new story and steer it in my desired direction. I feel an alternate reality inside my head needs an alternate story line. That, and it's just incredibly fun. I can accomplish the unthinkable, but if I do, don't I want it to feel as real as possible? I want to do crazy things and feel the impact of my decisions, I want to feel like my dream characters are real, and I want to be a hero! |

Hi. |

Thank you very much for your reply. I agree with what you said and It taught me some things I did not know. |

Hi, i dont have enough experience to have long dreams so i just had two long lucid dreams (2mins) but in it my dream where changing the location and after each location i will have an other idea to do it. |

I have a persistent realm that I go to often called Zödra. I really am "there" more than I go there. It is a world that a persistent character introduced me to, and I can't seem to get away from it. I also have a mall that is the size of a large city and it has amazing booths and things that you can buy with in dream money (you can also set booths up, but that is a convo for another time. I am not a fan of short stories, I like long ones, even if they are in a world that I really don't like and would rather go to a different one. I generally check the plot of a dream and see if I want to go with it or go away from it. |

Hi sensei, do you have regular lucid dreams because of your persistent realm? |
|
I have a persistent realm due to the lucid dreams. It is pretty rare for me to get lucid because of the persistent realm. I ld all the time due to hard work! |
|
Though I've had many memorable times following a story, or creating my own, I think in general that for me a story simply does not matter. So I guess I don't need a story. |
|
I suppose the short answer for me would be no. It's an interesting question though because the way people answer will reveal something about their personality. |
|
I am sure about illusion. I am not so sure about reality.
I'm not sure exactly why, making it more real just feels fun to me. Maybe it is the challenge, or maybe I just feel more connected to my dream world if that makes sense. I suppose it's a common mistake I make to automatically assume everyone is like me. Which, in lucid dreaming, I would say that is almost never true. We all have wildly different experiences and desires when it comes to dreaming. |
|
I don't necessarily need a story but I definitely like it because it often makes the dream feel more realistic. Also, I like to make decisions without having to worry about the consequences, because it's all "just a dream". |
|
I don't really think of it as a story, but I guess it could be. Lately my ongoing goal is to attend lucid dreaming lessons, and have in-dream tests to learn and grow as a lucid dreamer. This has some continuity as I progress through the stages. |
