Thank you for your comment! I really enjoyed this dream, I am hoping to visit that forest again soon, it is very pretty.
Wow! Sounds like a really successful and exciting first lucid dream. I like that you included a painting to go along with it, and don't worry about your confidence level, I'm sure you'll be more confident once you have a few more lucid dreams. But keep this one written down, the first LD is always one of the most memorable, no matter what happens in it. Here's to many more.
