I had a dream many years ago where I was coming home on my bike. It was getting late...dusk already. I came into my front yard and proceeded toward the side of the house when I was greeted with a prowler...a man dressed in all black. The next few moments seemed to have taken place in slow motion as I ran away in fear. Then I woke up.

It wasn't a disturbing dream, and I quickly fell asleep again. And as I started dreaming, I began dreaming the EXACT same dream. This time, I knew what to expect, but the prowler didn't! Instead of getting scared away, I scared the prowler away.

I don't think I was aware of the fact that I was dreaming, but I did take control. Is that kind of like a lucid dream?
