My first Lucid Dream

So yeah I had my first lucid dream 2 nights ago, which was great because I've been trying for about a week now.

It started out just like any other dream, I dreamed i was fighting a guy who looked like an old '30s private eye and i just thought there is NO way that this can be real.

So from that point on I just started mucking around seeing what stuff I can do. All I managed to do though was first off change the colour of the flame coming out of a lighter that I found, and after that I levitated the lighter a bit. Also I flew! which was one of my goals for a lucid dream, but it was really, really hard to start, I had to really concentrate but I finally did it.
The last thing I remember doing before waking up was going to climb a fence, but then saying nah climbing is for chumps, and walking straight through the fence. That probably took the most effort to do, I had to concentrate really hard and tell myself that the fence wasn't real and that it was just a dream.

The thing that I think surprised me the most was just how vivid and real everything felt, i could've sworn I was actually there doing these things.

So yeah that's about it for my first lucid, and I'm so glad it was an awesome experience.

congrats. I remember my first LD felt so wonder and lasted a very long time. It took me a few months to get there, though. I didnt realy think it was possible or know how amazing it was until it happened. I just wished more people would open thier mind to this sort of thing.

True, it is such an amazing experience, and yet so many people are unable to even comprehend how or why it is beneficial to try.

My second lucid dream lasted about 4 seconds because I got too excited and woke myself up lol.
