I can’t believe it! Maybe 3 days of trying and I already did it. It started off as a different dream that was subconscious and that I was not in control of but then a strange and somewhat sudden, no more like a snap into focus occurred. I was in a back yard that I have never been to before and it was raining lightly. I automatically knew that I was “dreaming” and to look down at my hands which appeared to be not quite my hands. They seemed to be a warm but slightly grayish in color. I looked at them for a while in amazement that I was still in this lucid dream state and yet completely aware of it. Another strange thing that I noticed was that I was not cold even though there was a small bit of snow on the ground and a light rain that I didn’t seem to be getting me wet. I then looked around at my surroundings which consisted an un-kept yard with a few trees and the stump of what appeared to be from a very large and old tree. In the distance appeared to be grassland as if in some distance African land. Just then I herd an out of place sound but it was also a familiar sound. It was a Zebra running in this direction, possibly from a predator that was unseen. I thought to myself that this is a wild animal and it could potentially injure me so I immediately ran over to one of just a few trees in the yard and climbed it to take myself out of harms way if the Zebra continued running in this direction. From this new vantage point in the tree I noticed a small house that was in the yard but previously behind my when my dream came into focus. It was a small almost trailer sized home that somehow contained my mother and sister. I thought to my self that my family would be pissed at me for practicing dreaming for the obvious reason of me sleepwalking and climbing a tree. Everything was so real that I actually thought for a minute that in my dream I was really at this mysterious place sleepwalking but at the same time controlling my dream. Just then my sister opened the sliding glass door on the small home and I came down from the tree. She asked what I was doing outside? I didn’t answer because something else caught my attention, the sky. It was completely dark as if it was night and I noticed a significant amount of very small lights in some sort of formation and moving at a rapid pace. Wow what is that? I asked. My sister replied that’s a city. I didn’t understand what the hell my sister was talking about and I didn’t answer, still fixated on this strange phenomena. The long row of faintly lit lights kept moving across the sky and I asked the question again man, what is that? My sister replied once again, it’s a city. This response triggered a memory that out of place things of this nature are “dreaming scouts”, bits of other worldly energy. I couldn’t believe that I remembered this while dreaming and this re-enforced the level of control that I had attained over this dream. I pretty much immediately woke up after this thought and then began to reflect on what had just happened so I would remember as many of the details as possible.
