      Thumbs up Imagine a world where everyone knew about Lucid Dreaming..

      That would be very awesome! I realize when a lot of people tell their friends about lucid dreaming nobody thinks its cool, or seems excited. I've had this problem many times. What if we all wrote notes saying:
      "Dreamviews.com"
      or
      "Lucid Dreaming"
      and dropped them in a random place where we are sure someone would come along and pick the note up. They would most likely be interested and either search it in google or go to Dreamviews. Dreamviews explains lucid dreaming a lot better than most of us. Then more people would be excited about it and start to lucid dream. Then they see this thread and write there own note!
      What do you think?

      Thanks . People respond differently when they see it on paper than in person. When I tell them in person they think im crazy. I just thought this would get more people to discover lucid dreaming

      Sounds like a fun idea to mess with peoples heads.

      *grabs banana, sees note*
      "What the fuck?"

      Of course some people, like my mom, even after researching will just think that it was some potheads rolling paper that they dropped.

      That would be amazing. I made a bracelet that said 'Lucid Dream' so that I could encourage myself to keep going because I was in the process of lucid dreaming and all my friends asked me what 'Lucid Dream' meant. When I explained it to them they thought it was cool. One of my friends said "I want to try that".

      But on the other hand, I think that if everybody knew about it, it wouldn't be as fun and unique.

      yeah some friends think it is cool, and most think it is weird. I agree with you, but if everyone knew about it then you could discuss it more and talk about it all the time

      True. True. I don't really have anybody close to talk about lucid dreaming with so that would be nice.

      I told my friends as well. I got a bunch of pessimists for friends
      Only one friend I told actually went out and tried a FILD, and ended up getting so spooked by sleep paralysis, he couldn't sleep for 4 days...
      I guess they're cowards too, who don't see the bright side of the night.

      But hopefully, other people in the world will be inspired to explore the mind, and the land of dreams.

      So you just want to keep LDing a secret... That isn't fair everyone atleast deserves a chance to know what it is.

      PS i'm going to try this. Maybe at school... I am going to write it in the bathroom stall so people can see it.

      I feel the exact same way! It would be cool for people to like LDing more, but I also like having this unique hobby, along with this other unique hobby. I like being unique, but it would also be great for more people to like it.

      IDK.
      If you see a strange typo in my post, blame my iPad for that.

      I guess everybody does deserve a chance but....I like how it's a unique hobby. It's hard to explain.

      I definitely agree with those saying its nice to have a unique hobby. I tell people about it and most are really interested and ask heaps of questions, and even though I'm not particularly good at it compared to some at DV, people I tell think I'm some kind of pro

      If everyone knew about LDing I think it would no longer be considered special, which I think is a large part of its attraction.

      Agree to these.

      @bradysdreaming umm, LDing isn't a secret, anyone can find out about it where they google dreams or hear some documentary, read something, etc.... Gotta remember we weren't told about it, but, we found it so I'm sure some will find it on their own
