Thread: Lucid vs non lucid.

Basically, after reading my dream journal which I have started mid December, ( I only posted here the dreams I have recalled since I have joined this forum), I noticed in my dreams, I am great. I have had just 1 lucid dream. The dreams seem to have a sort of structure, well, most of them. Problem- struggle - solution. They might have some sort of other meaning, but.. I seem to manage all the problems thrown at me pretty well. I do not get overwhelmed by bad feelings, even in the worst case scenarios that I have recorded. I do feel fear, sadness, pity, but they never seem to get to the point I feel terror, or despair. And I usually overcome them. I do not have superpowers to do so, nor would I ever want to have them, even if I have had the choice. I fear, at this point, that my awake self would not handle the situations thrown at me with such ease as my dream self. Basically my wish to go lucid at this point, is to be able to revisit some of my dream places, which I found extraordinary, and perhaps ask different questions to the dream characters I encounter. I also fear the nature of things. I am taught that dreams occur in order to help the dreamer solve, or elucidate, or forget, some of the daily dilemmas, or dramas, or puzzles. They have a purpose. Disrupting them for fun seems like something one should not do.
For you that can relate to this, did you not had these thoughts before trying to go lucid? And what did you do to overcome these fears?
