I feel like I may be a bit of a lucid dreaming late bloomer, I have had many OBE's and such but it wasn't until just a few nights ago that I had my first lucid dream. I wanted to share it and get any feed back I possibly could.

So in the dream I was standing in what appeared to be a pitch black room, I couldn't see any walls, windows or doors. But in the center of the room was this very old dead tree, its branches were curled up ward and reached pretty high up and the roots were buried into black soil. I remember looking at the tree then the seeing the roots and seeing my bare feet in the soil and dirty then looking up and seeing this owl sitting on a branch just watching me. I could then feel the cold soil and a slight wind on my face and knowing I was asleep and dreaming! I looked at the owl and cocked my head to one side and the owl mimicked me, then twitched it's head the other way and I mimicked it. Then I repeated to myself, "Owl, owl, owl, owl...." then woke and whispered to myself "Owl." I have been trying for some time now to have a lucid dream, but this was nothing like what I thought I would have! Should I be worried or scared? Please any insight or thoughts are welcome!
