      A model of psychology, psychodynamics (one that lends itself readily to dreaming, Freud pretty much started the psychodynamic approach) theorises that we all have Schemas. That is, an idea of something that is based upon all our knowledge and our expectations of something. So your schema for your mother (hypothetical example) is a woman who is loving and caring. Your schema for sky-diving is that it would be a terrifying but exhilarating experience, those are your expectations.

      Your schema for lucid dreaming is that very few people can do it, and that it's difficult. But we can change our schemas, as they are based on our expectations, just change those expectations. One of the best guides that far to few people here on dream views have been fortunate to read is by Billybob, he discusses how we are held back by our schemas. http://www.dreamviews.com/f14/master...-dreams-48095/

      Always, no sometimes think it's me,
      But you know I know when it's a dream
      I think I know I mean a yes
      But it's all wrong
      That is I think I disagree

      Now this is comprehensive and well explained. It gives me a new perspective on lucid dreaming. It's funny how he was able to put key to screen and describe it, yet Silverbullet you still cannot get the message across to someone as dull as me. I got it from this guy, why not from you?
