My mind and I are currently struggling with myself: most of me wants to remember every dream and every fragment, and yet I have had two dream related incidents that made me realize that part of me is beginning to question the need to remember every dream fragment - it's my foolish and lazy part, I guess.

While of the last 21 dreams or dream fragments that I remember, a staggering 12 had dreaming as the subject of the dream, I have only become lucid once during these 21 dreams.

In the past I have had a dream where one of my dream characters kept telling me that this is a dream and he is lucid dreaming and I did not make the leap to becoming lucid myself, and I have also had dreams when I became barely aware that this is a dream but without any added level of awareness beyond that (kind of a back of the mind awareness that this is a dream).

I think our mind is just weird. I have decided to accept that it is. If my mind wants to play games with me, then I am going to accept that, and laugh at its antics.
That's quite an interesting thought. I won't rule out the possibility, but every conscious part of me absolutely and entirely wants to lucid dream. I suppose it's possible that a subconscious part of me doesn't want to.
