    Got Lucid - Only Wanted To Continue My Normal Dream

    Well - yeah.
    Stupid, sort of - I really wanted to go on dreaming, what I was dreaming, wanted to get back to somebody's house.
    So I got lucid and tried to fly there. But I got stuck in mid-air - nothing went forward nor backwards, just me hanging there and trying to air-swim. It wasn't really full lucidity, maybe that was why - only thing on my mind was getting back there and I woke up from my futile efforts. Shame.

      I almost thought you wanted to be non-lucid, but I re-reading that, it seems you were going for lucidity, and trying to sustain said normality you wanted to reach. For me, it seems to be the opposite, since the more I'm lucid, the more I feel things will be planned out too much by my conscious thoughts and predispositions, and I wouldn't have as much fun as I usually would. Most of the time, I try to be a spectator in my own dreams; like a lucid observer rather than an active participant within the confines of my mind.

      I guess I just have motivation and goal issues, hahaha

      Dang! Sometimes it sucks when that happens... happened to me lately that I could not run, but I was not lucid tho.

      Yeah - exactly so, Link - I hardly realized lucidity, it was like - okay, I'm dreaming this, and I really want to go on doing so, and to get back to that house - how practical, I can fly there and get on with it. I think, I might have accepted losing it upon arrival, and forgotten the whole episode. Who knows, how often such semi-lucidity actually happens and gets lost and forgotten?
      The usual thing upon getting fully lucid is me letting it all be what it may, turn away from my DC interaction, or whatever I'm on about, and go for what I planned for the LD.

      And then I get stuck in mid-air, serves me right, not contemplating it properly to become fully lucid...

      I sometimes think, I would like to just passively follow a lucid dream, too, not interfere, but maybe analyse it. My daytime practice is more or less non-existent again. I really need to work on it and get good enough to not only play around with a task or two, and hope for the dream to last long enough for that, but to really plunge into it, go for my personal goals as well.
      I'm posting too much off topic here, instead of using the time...

      Thanks for your comments, guys - and happy lucids to you!
