I've yet to become lucid, at least on purpose. I used to become lucid frequently as a kid. For some reason it's become a challenge for me now that I'm seeking lucidity. Anyways, there seems to be a thing with flying. I've read in multiple threads that people actually have trouble flying and it's a "goal". Thing is, when I'm not lucid, flying is almost natural. I don't have to think about it, I don't have to try, it just happens. What's the big deal? Once you're lucid, does it all of a sudden become a challenge? I don't recall having trouble with it when I was much younger either.

Also, does anyone else have annoyingly basic dreamscapes? I'm a fairly creative person, but for some reason all of my dreamscapes recently have been as basic as possible. I'll create beautiful images in my head before I go (back) to sleep, but my actual dreams are comically lazy. Why is this? Should I just be doing more visualization techniques to improve this? Ugh.
