This whole thing seems pretty romantic, with evil Stalkers (the evil old lady is one of my favorites) waging wars against LDers and DW's...there is "the council", the adventurous and teenage-like "Rogues", the "dark immortals", the "Watchers", the "Healers" and whatnot... Everything is grandious and epic, and there is mortal danger waiting around the corner... Lex and friends are ass-kicking "rogues" fighting epic battles against skeletons and whatnot in their dreams, and whatever...
I used to daydream about being an ass-kicking rogue myself, in my early teenage years... its no problem, and i mean no offense really... its much better to be a rogue-fighter-who-delivers-asses-in-plates-and-fears-nobody than the regular teenager bored to death with this shithole we call society... my only problem is trying to convey imagination as reality, and gettin sooooo many people going for it... i mean, cmon! If i were to tell this story in a party people would be laughing their asses off at my expenses...
I'm sorry for my honesty, but this seems too much like a hollywood script, or some sci-fi series soon to premier on AXN... perhaps after "Buffy, the Vampire Slayer", and in between reruns of The Lord of The Rings...
Ive been LDing for 10+ years, and NEVER encountered a DC slighlty resembling a DW or NS. In fact, once im lucid, i just ignore anyone who's buging me and they disapear right away... god knows i've seen my share of weird stuff, but people, ITS A DREAM! thats why we call it lucid DREAMING!
No one is going to kill you! No one is going to find out where you live! No one is going to "ban" you from dreaming!
I know im getting flare for "being closed minded" or "that i shouldnt be posting here if i dont believe" but i dont care really... Last time i checked this was a freedom of speech internet, and i believe i have the right to be honest and thus give the newbies another outlook on this thing.
I dont mean to sound offensive (you have to forgive the hint of sarcasm here and there, cmon), and i wouldnt even post this, except i think it could scare a lot of newbies into not entering the fascinating world of LD.
That being said, i wish you all the best, and may your dreams be filled with exciting battles and whatever makes you tick.
Oh, and i do belive dreamsharing IS possible (as dream yoga has tought before), just not in this epic-fantasy way, and surely not without many years/decades of monastic rigor and discipline in yogic practices.
best regards
TBW
