I like becoming lucid in dreams, and taking control. But I don't like starting lucid.



Mainly because, in normal dreams before you lucid, there's already a story set up, people are there, and things are happening. You know, there are things to do. Every time I begin a lucid by WILDing, it's boring. I always start in my bed, roll out of it, run out of my completely normal house then to the completely normal and bare streets. And then I speed run down them trying to find something to do.



A couple times I ran out, a kinda interesting dream story developed, or I saw some random things I don't usually see in a begin-lucid. Like my uncle with longer hair, sharpening a stick with a knife, vines coming from somewhere and covering the sidewalk, and a weird animal staring at me, but those things are weak in the randomness that I love in normal dreams.



What do you guys prefer? Beginning lucid, becoming lucid, or both?
