Thanks for the positive reply. I'm excited about the possibilities of LD's because reading around the forum I seem to have made a lot of progress in just 2 nights of dreaming. I'm probably going to build up a backlog of dream journal entries over the next week, look for different recurring themes, characters scenes and look for dream signs, work on reality checking, and as you said attempt DILD.

As for interpretation, I always took your view, but you take from dreams what you will. Even if it wasn't intended, if your dreams help you then that can only be positive in my opinion.
