How I got here. (newb)

So at some point I had heard about lucid dreaming but hadn't really thought much about it.

I had had brief lucid snippets in the past that I remember thinking how detailed they were, but it never went much beyond that.

The other night I had a dream where suddenly, I thought, "hey, I'm dreaming." It was VERY vivid and detailed. The light was a little funny. I was looking at a dry erase board that had a name on it that was constantly changing to different names of people I know and don't know. I looked closely at the board and noticed there were algebra problems that had been written small and erased. There were also people behind me who were sitting at a table. I went over to mess with them realizing that I'd heard that you can control your dreams. As I messed with them, I slowly lost lucidity.

It wasn't that much, but I was struck by how realistic and vivid it was. So I did a google search and ended up here. I've recorded my dreams the past couple of days (non-lucid).

Today during a nap I had a flash where I got out of my chair and looked out the window. Then I realized I was dreaming. I was like, "hey, this dream is luci...POOF!!" I woke up. lol.

Anyway, that's how I got here. I hope I can do more of this.

I have some theories that combine my faith, science, and what I've read about lucid dreaming. Maybe, I'll post them elsewhere if for nothing else than my own entertainment.

This is my personal intro. Nice to meet you all.

damn, man. you're off to a great start.

That's quite common with lucid dreaming (the first lucids makes you wake up).
Look forward to seeing you around, you seem legit:)
