Thread: To dream? Or not to dream? Little confused....

Ok.After two weeks of RC and mantras every night, last night, i've might had my first lucid dream.
I was wandering in a big street, when, aside a little building and a metal structure, i've met my sister, saying to me: "You're dreaming"
I couldn't belive it. I've done the nose RC, and i didn't work. I looked around me, and evrything was gone. I could see the horizon. I wanted to try something, so i touched my hands. First i felt something like an itching sensation, then i really felt my hand touching each other. It was not so vivid, but sure it was realistic. Then, the dream begun to fade, and i remembered some tricks to make the dream longer: so i tried to rub my hand toghether, but it didn't work. I tried to spin in place, but i stopped halfway (it was really hard, like if my feet were very heavy) and then lost lucidity.
The problem is... was it really a lucid drem? I read about dreaming about lucid dream. Did i experience something like that?
I really don't know who to ask... anyway, other things confuse me: even with all the excitement i had in the past weeks imaging my future first LD, i didn't feel the excitement in the dream. I didn't feel the sense of omnipotence. I didn't feel... anything.
Now i'm starting to consider letting go all the work behind this (RC, mantras, etc). I don't feel satisfied....

Anyway, how can i improve my chanches of having a lucid dream? Any tip or suggestion?

Sorry for any grammar mistakes
