      We're gods...

      nah, we're not! but it got your attention!!
      but think about it, when in LD we can do anything, right? kinda like Neo in the matrix. we can summon people, things, etc. we can make whole worlds, we can erase the world by snapping our fingers.

      When i go Lucid for the first time, i want to be GOD

      Hmmm....Good point Lucius, I know where you are coming from.
      (i should, we've discussed this one for hours ^_^ )

      But let me add this thought. Being a *god* is not the same thing as being in absolute control.
      Sometimes being a god just entails guiding and teaching those less evolved than yourself. Not forcing your will on them, but gentle loving guidance.

      Being God is feeling superior or powertripping in whatever way(for us humans) and should be left to greater beings not us humans, what you describe is perhaps "feeling like a God" teaching others, helping people makes you feel like a God, it makes you feel good and above the bad stuff in the world, but it doesnt make you a God, same with being with the one you love most, seeing people happy and blessed, it makes you feel like a God. Because you feel so good with everything. Harmony, balance with it all.

      We are no Gods, at least, not meant to be, being God is being better and higher then others. There are ones that are better and higher then us(in other realms), but we are all humans right now, sadly I suppose sometimes.

      I know you did, but we just went and discuss what exactly a God is I gues, and, if we should be Gods.

      And control in dreams isnt the most ideal thing either : P

      I AM GOD!!!!! BOW TO ME!!!

      No really I just try to have fun in my dream world. But really aren't we all gods of our own dreams? We are in control and what we say goes! We create what we want when we want or try to at least! Yes we aren't gods in the waking world but who says we can't be in our dreams!

      I don't remember the quote exactly, but here goes...

      "Man will become god once he realizes he has the ability to create..."
      -Nietzsche

      Could it be that Nietzsche was a lucid dreamer?

      I dont control my dreams either, then, I cant anyway, people who control their LDs are in their own minds instead of the actual astral plane but Im not even going to start : P See other topics, Ive said stuff about control a 1000x But you do whatever feels right to you

      Controlling can be fun, but so can passively just watching dream characters in their lives too. Have you ever tried watching a DC at work, then doing things to spook them out/annoy them! It hilarous, wait until they make coffee then when they look at it it's disappeared again. The reactions can be pretty funny.

      They say dreaming is dead, no one does it anymore.
      It's not dead it's just that it's been forgotten, removed from our language.
      Nobody teaches it so nobody knows it exists.
      The dreamer is banished to obscurity.
      Well, I'm trying to change all that, and I hope you are too.
      By dreaming, every day.

      God bumped, thats your new title nomad.
      Anyway, was once when I first became successful, and didn't like it, being a god is so freaking boring its not even funny. So created rules to cancel that!

      In my first lucid dream I summoned my best friend but he was only there in spirit, he didnt actually have a body — I blame it on lack of experience — but we'd made a mess in an office room of some sort when a DC maid came in to clean the mess up. She found my invisible friend and I in amongst the mess we'd made and decided that she really didn't want to stick around and so started to back away out of the room slowly. I started to speak jiberish to her and attempted to make her think she was insane.

      It's important to have fun in your dreams. If manipulating your environment facilitates your ability to have fun, go for it! (By the way, I voted for the third option, although the first two aren't bad either!)
