Thread: Your Last Lucid Dream

I know this sounds really silly... but I had two cats when I was little, and I would really like to "meet" them again.

The first was a tiny tabby kitten I named Tiger, with all the imagination of a nine-year-old. I had just lost my first stepfather; and this tiny kitten decided that I might be a very odd sort of cat, but I qualified; and as she grew into a sleek young female she decided I would be her kitten. She taught me how to speak Cat--not in some weird Doctor Doolittle sense, mind you, but in the way that cats communicate with each other--body shapes, movements, glances, whiskers and tails and sometimes meows. And she brought me up from a silly little human kitten who dressed her in doll clothes, to a young lady of eleven who understood that cats had feelings, language, emotion, and minds of their own. Tiger died when my mother sent her away to live on a farm, and she contracted Feline Leukemia. She was brought home one last time before my mother had her put to sleep (without asking my permission!); and we both knew she was going to die... I sat on the ground next to her, and we leaned up against each other like cats do when they're being companionable, and she started purring... I couldn't help myself and put my arms around her--a very human gesture, and one she'd hated when she was little, but one she now understood. I think I'd taught her to speak Human, too.

The second cat I named Daffy, short for Daffodil. I was fifteen when Daffy came to live with us. When we first brought him home, my family made a fuss over him and nearly frightened the poor kitten to death; I took him, locked us both into a room, and let him down to calm down and explore. Daffy decided to adopt me as well. We understood each other; he'd sit next to me while I read; and he'd bring me the grasshoppers and mice that he killed. Often times, during my rocky teen years, Daffy was my only friend. Eventually, though, we moved to the country; and I had to go to college. Without me around to protect him, my mother immediately ordered him outside. Daffy had been neutered and was used to chasing smaller prey, and he was no match for the tough barn cats next door, not to mention the near-wild farm dogs. My mother knew this; but she didn't want a cat indoors, and obviously what she wanted was more important than a cat's well-being. Several months of outdoor life, and Daffy ended up fighting a battle he couldn't win. My sister found him dead under the house, where he had retreated after being injured too badly to survive.

If I could dream about those two cats, I would want to find a way to tell them that I was sorry that I hadn't been there to help them when they needed me... that I'm thankful for all they'd done for me. Sure, there's no way to bring them back; but a dream image of a well-loved friend is better than no reunion at all...

What I would do in my last LD?
I would have the temptation to stay there indefinitely, neglecting to wake up. I would enter the others' dreamspace and talk with everyone there, forming a second world which would affect the "real" world by opening wide the boundaries between dream and the rest of life.

eXistenZ

I would try and summon up the characters from my illustrations and talk to them, get to know them... have a big party with them (if I hadn't already managed to do that).

Or maybe... go on a mission to save the world and wipe out all the yucky politicians and stuff.

Or maybe I'd just spend it quietly on my own, enjoying the feelings and the veiws of anything I wanted...

Thinking about this is making me wish even more that I had lucid dreams more often!

Hmm, my last LD... that's a tough one, mainly because I'm still on virgin territory concerning LD's (have yet to have one), so that question for me is possibly the same as 'What would you like your first one be?'. I think I'm gonna have to go the route of flying. Start off at slow speed on earth, flying over really amazing scenic places (mountain ranges, beaches, forrests, glaciers), then fly/swim underwater, being able to breathe of course, and then head out to space, flying faster and faster, the planets zooming by, ever faster still into interstellar space, visiting the furthest reaches of the universe, seeing what's really out there! Can't wait!!!

That would be my lovely Half-Life styled dream.
You can check my dream journal for more details, but I got to walk around in my dream as if it were a video game.
I also made cable cars swing around and collide.
And I got to fly an aeroplane.

It was fun.

It would have to be in an empty city on a perfect summer day. I love to fly and navigate
stairs when I dream. Being able to go screaming up the side of skyscrapers and then
plunging through the roofs and spiraling down the stairs for as long as I wanted would be enough. I prefer to be alone when lucid, so no peeps.
An imaginary city would be O.K. but New York City would be my choice. To be able to visit all the museums I love and already know the layout of the streets; plus the subways !
I'd like that .

I have at least one lucid dream a week. I think the last one was when I dreamt that I had to stay at work 24/7. THe doctor I work for made us sleep there and we could only call our husbands if we were good and then maybe see them on weekends. I remember thinking "Why haven't I quit?". Then I realized it was a dream and I could just stop having it. And I did,

great topic.

i would transport myself to the topmost peak on an earth-esque planet, to a meadow plateau with bright, vibrant, living, psychedelic flowers (small to six feet tall), and 4 setting suns in all directions, creating an all-encompassing sunset, with deepest red as base, with the perfect complements from the remaining spectrum, tinged especially in blueish-green streaks...
directly overhead would be a pin-prick point of clearest white light piercing a small circular patch of black expanse, with 12 red giants (stars) surrounding it. this circular patch would melt into the fourfold sunset on each horizon.

then i would focus on the fact that it is my last lucid dream, and thus my last opportunity to express myself without 'waking-life' restrictions.

as i hold this thought in my mind, i would slowly melt like a beeswax candle in the very center of the field (which would be circular by the way), and flow outwards in all directions, gently sloping downwards in slow, achingly beautiful movements. this fluid morphing would continue outwards with increasingly intricate geometric patterns, the process creating the richest, clearest, most breath-taking symphony resounding from my molten meanderings out to the furthest reaches of the universe. angelic voices would harmonize, high and low- would flow out of every relationship in the 'crop circle' design i would choose.

and of course, i would 'inhabit' every wave of vibration in this entire process. feeling the entire lotus design blossoming, feeling the harmonic beauty as it leaks from its visual counterpart (the design), being gently tugged behind each soundwave, pulled, and pushing, encompassing the entire universe with perfectly delicate, radiant resplendency.

ah, dammit, why'd you go and make me imagine that, when i can't even maintain lucidity for more than one 'minute'....

at least i have something to aim for though

I would start at my front door, walk out and start exploring. Nothing would be pre-planned; the landscape would just randomly generate itself as I explore it. But these things will happen:

-A huge fight against a giant beast like the ones in this game
-I win the fight but befriend the colossal freak, and ride around on him for a bit
-the landscapes will include my neighbourhood, various videogame locales, 2D places, a land where everything is edible and ocean
-throughout the journey I form a rag-tag gang of awesome freaks including people I know, clones of myself, random historical figures, celebrities and fictional characters
-there's lots of flying
-it ends with a big feast at my old school, then I explode

Something like that.

You know, scrap my last idea. If I was dying in real life, I would use my waking time to say "See you later" to my friends and family.

In my last lucid dream, I would say goodbye to all of the dream characters that made life worth living. First off, I would go to the house where my dream life began and thank them. Not wanting to be alone, he and I would visit my favorite places both from the waking and dream world. I would want to be silent and not focus on the past but on what joys awaited me. I'd love for there to be beautiful classical music in the background while I say "Goodbye" to him and everyone else. However, if I marry before I die, I would travel around with my husband instead of him.

However, I would want to say "Hello" to my friends and family who had already passed on and let them know that I am looking forward to seeing them soon. That's all.

My awesome flying around and annoying karate sensei LD.

I will get a gun.
And go shoot people.

So that the images of their death is in my mind forever.

Then, I won't regret, that it's my last lucid dream.

lol sorry to be on the dark side of things.

I really would actually go see jump in a waterfall... oh that'd be so pretty.

I dont know but at the end, probably jump off something, reminescent of Vanilla sky

That's so sweet...

In my last lucid dream, I'd probably finally apologise to my long-suffering dream guide for always ignoring him, running away, attacking his other pupils and occasionally trying to blow up the school. Chances are he'd then take me on a tour like yours, only with me apologising to all my DCs instead for various and diverse crimes. But then to top it off, we'd probably fly through his home mountain range as dragons (like my best dream ever!).

I hope I die while having a good dream. That would be the best way.

.....the Biggest......Baddest....most UnFuhkinBelievable fight scene ever conceived.

I'm thinkin...Hmm...I'm thinkin, something in the middle of a bustling city. A massive battle royal between two teams of opposing forces with no slacking on the outlandish dream powers. Flying, crashing through buildings, pyrokinetics, reality distortion, running up and down skyscrapers, infinite weapons, mushroom-cloud inducing energy blasts, light-speed martial arts, Destruction, Carnage, CHAOS!!!!!!!!

And then, a nice sportsman-like round of "Hey, guys. Good Fight," (-daps all around-) as the smoke clears and both teams fly off into the sunset in search of the nearest singles' bar/nightclub, and what every (Honest) Human wants to have happen in their last lucid dream; the type of wild crazy dreamsex that the waking world is nowhere near ready for.

What can I say? I'm easy. ^__^

I'd probably try to kill myself in that dream ^^.. for it isn't really worth living in the real world without my dreamworld..i turned it around, I use the dreamworld as a base, so that is also where i get all my memories from, and the real world.. oh well whatever. it's bearable as long as I can dream..

First off i have to say wow, what a broad range of views. I have to admit i've picked up a few ideas i'd like to try as well.

For me it would have to be flying, nothing else comes close, well,.....maybe having a spiritual experience. I have to say i have never met any real memorable DC's. Took me a while to work that one out. I have been able to call on someone twice, more just to put a lose end to rest. Sounds to me like others out there have the regular crew that they catch up with and hand out, and dream guides? I need to read up some more!

Well i really cant remember very well my last LD esp that it wasnt completely Lucid, i didnt realise that im dreaming except near its end, and i tried to keep it running because i like it! I didnt want it to end! I succeeded for some time and then finally got awake!

I was recieving a blowjob by a hot girl, but my dream was interupted as I woke up with a sticky liquid in my underwear...

Clarification: Though this topic sound like the last LD you had, it's actually for what you ideal final LD of your life would be.

my last lucid wow, that would suck. I would try to slow time down. I would then reacreate the burly brawl from the matrix reloaded. Next, I would start flying, first stop, a city. I would find the tallest building around, and jump off. (I've done this before, and it's really cool, better than flying.) next I would continue on to a tropical white-sand beach, with lots of girls to hang out with if you know what I mean. then, probably just go around say good bye to all the DCs, and then wake up and swear, alot, more than anyones ever sworn before.

My Last LD.. what a sad thought....

I would appear on a beautiful tropical beach with giant waves and lots of DCs on the shore to talk to. The sky would be sporadically painted with beautiful, sweeping clouds, but never obstructing the sun. I would go along the beach and meet everyone and get all of their names and tell them that although I will never see them again, they will always be a part of me.

Then I will go out on the waves and surf on a wave that is over a hundred feet high. Just before the wave crashes down, I will turn the board around and zoom up to the very top of the wave and fly off the top and then spread my arms and fly over the beach. At this point it will be nearly sunset, and the clouds will be radiantly lit up in several beautiful colors. I will fly up above them and then land on the edge of a giant cumulonimbus. Then I will jump off the edge and dive toward the ocean below, doing several flips and twists until I finally splash into the ocean. There I will grab onto the fin of a dolphin and it will propel us through the water as I look at all of the beautiful fish. Then the dolphin will jump out of the water with me holding on and I will let go and continue to float through the air.

At this point the sun is now on the horizon; a beautiful melting orange sphere. I will fly towards it as it grows ever larger, until it finally fills my whole vision. I will stop inches away from it and extend my arm toward it. My hand will be sucked into the sun (it feels like hot gelatin by the way). I try to pull back, but then I realize this is the way it is supposed to be. Willingly, I let the sun pull me in until only my head is protruding. I look back to see the glittering ocean and shining sands off in the far distance, where I can barely make out the people who are waving at me. I smile and with that I am sucked through the sun and find myself in my bed, awake.

Unbelieveable. That is amazing and is pretty much exactly how I would have it.

I would render myself in real-life in such a state that I would be declared comatose(*cough*just not wake up for really long* cough*), after that i'd be so focussed on dream-extending that I will technically dream for a billion of years (or just a really long time, somewhere I read someone succeeded at 100 years in 1 night).
Why you ask? Comatose = Long long time not waking up + Lucid Dream + Dream Extending = You got it right? .

Then i'd just live a nice life, in a location where it's always beautiful, and just live a life with a girl I like in real-life, or the girl i've partly made up in my mind.
And every day spend a lot of time with her, being happy together, doing stuff outside.
And thanks to the ''special abilities'', I'd go fly with her and do other stuff normally not possible. Just a peaceful life without worries.

Or to experience what I want to experience in that last lucid dream: Extend your dream for years and create your own perfect life.

I dont want to go on and on, so Ill just give you the highlights.

Last night, 3-6-06

Drank beers with Governor Schwartzenegar at the grand canyon.
Rode my motorcycle really fast through town.
Arranged my music studio in my mansion.
Defended a sci-fi fortress from attack with an automatic rifle.
Met some pretty hot DC's. No, I didnt......
