I did it! This morning when I woke up at 9:30 am I decided to use the extra time before work to go back into dreaming and try to LD. I had an amazing dream earlier in the night where I was with a young boy in a bubble like spaceship and he brought me down to earth - a different version of earth, one where most the land was changed into small islands. We splashed down and motored over to a bank, I had the feeling that this used to be our world but somehow we had caused this change. Non of the DC's would allude to this though, they ignored my repeated requests for deeper understanding of the environment. The island was small and long with old Maine-esque type structures lining the shores. I could still check FB on my phone which was a great comfort to me, since I didn't feel totally cut off from my version of reality. I remember going into use the bathroom and the bathroom was on the front of the house I was at. It had long tall windows that looked out to the sea, I was about 2 inches from the water I marveled at the beauty of the glistening pebbles in the lapping water. 1st LD- I closed my eyes after several repeated attempts ( children and birds coming in and out of my room) visualized the floor of my room and it quickly turned into a dream scene I fallowed it until I could look up and construct the walls as well- at this point I happily told myself- I was lucid. I opened the door and flew out into the sky up into a leafy green canopy. It was a very shallow lucid, I could feel how close I was to the edge of being non-lucid. I decided to get to the point- I shouted to the Sky- "Tell me something interesting!" I heard nothing...I shouted "Tell me something important!"...I heard nothing... frustrated I began to wake up. 2nd-I visualized again and brought myself back into another LD I flew up through my house to the second floor (which doesn't exist in our real home)and there was a girl sitting in a bed by a window- she looked sick like "Pesentucky" from Orange is the New Black. I decided to ask her who she was- she wouldn't answer, so I took her by her arm and asked very bluntly and loudly- who she represented- she began to let off a bad vibe and get evil looking. I decided I wasn't deep enough in the dream to deal with nasty DC's yet I let myself wake up. SO I know now that I have to re do all of that work I previously did getting passed my ego's defenses - I had made it to a point where I encountered no more scary or demonic DC's - guess their back.

I remember one of my early lucid dreams before I knew anything about it. I started telling the DCs "this is a dream! This isn't real!" Some wouldn't respond, some would say something like "Is this some sort of eastern philosophy?" or "How do I realize this is a dream? Should I meditate every day? How long does it take?" They didn't get it. They still thought that it was real and that I was enlightened or something. I kept saying "No! THIS RIGHT NOW IS A DREAM! WAKE UP!" and they still thought that I was just a Guru or something.
Later when I started studying yoga and Buddhism I always remembered this dream and thought about that must be how the enlightened feel about the seekers. The spiritual seekers that go to see the Gurus all reminded me of these DCs. Funny...
