So, i've been gone for a while, assuming anyone has noticed. Just wanted too say hello, and talk about a few lucid experiences I have had in my absence, and how I achieved it. Alot of people like too think that their are some people who "just can't lucid dream". I find this too be false. When I read this, it had been months and I had no success in becoming lucid, so I thought maybe I was one of these people. I nearly gave up, but around the time my computer gave out on me(this is why i've been gone so long) I had two lucid dreams in one morning, wilds in fact. Totally on accident. I had a little trouble letting go of reality, still do, but i'm getting better about it. But in my first lucid dream, I managed too de-root a tree, and throw it into the sun. The rest of the time I lost lucidity because I got sucked into talking too my family, forgetting they weren't real. I've gotten alot.better about it, but sometimes it still gets me. So basically, the real secret too lucid dreaming is too never give up. I have had countless lucid dreams in the past six or so months, and still do spite not keeping up with my dream journal, nor my reality checks. Sometimes I just suddenly know I am dreaming. So just keep with it people, anyone can lucid dream, it just takes patience(and I have none whatsoever, so if I can do it, you sure as heck can!). People keep putting out all these complex ways too quickly start lucid dreaming, but i'm telling you, the old fashion way works. I only do hamd.checks, which fails me in dreams on the occasion, but rarely. I reccomend hand checks, along with a mental check, asking yourself, would I normally be here, doing this? That's all I got too say, great too be back!
