I agree. Often times it depend on length of a lucid, if you accomplished any ToTMs or your personal goals. They get me pretty stoked regardless. All the extras are more of a bonus.

Sometimes I get so super happy in a lucid the moment I realize I'm dreaming, that it wakes me up. But I don't mind one bit. Because then this out-of-this-world happy feeling stays with me for at least a day. I mean I giggle in a lucid histerically when I realize I'm lucid. Not always, but often enough. And I can't stop myself. I feel my face having a huge grin and I often wonder, if I really do it. If someone saw me, if he could tell.
