On a Journey

[RedeemingMonk]

Hello, I am not new to Lucid Dreaming. I had a view OBE's when i was young and randomly have partially lucid nightmares. I am here to gain some control over my dreams. I have a lot of questions no one seems to have the answer for lately, I was hopping my dreams may have the answer. Looking around on how to start a dream journal I discovered this wonderful place. I hope it helps me and I can return the favor.

Hello redeeming monk. You've found an excellent source of information here. I'm sure that you will find help here. How bout to share a few of those questions you have?

Welcome RedeemingMonk! To create a Dream Journal you just click on the "Dream Journal" on the top of the page and then you click "Create DJ Entry". It's great that you joined because this forum can help you to attain all of your dreams (literally) And lucid dreams are a great place to learn and understnad yourself, becasue dreams are a literal experience of the ego and what makes your personality. Subconscious, memories and emotions. Go beyond the ego and you can have an out of body experience or in other words a consciousness directed away from your ego. And these experiences can answer the big questions as "Who am I?", "What is my purpose on this earth?", and last but not least "What is consciousness?" But I hope that you enjoy your stay, and I wish you sweet dreams. Also remember to ask if you need any help! Sweet dreams!

Well, I just started teaching, but I am not sure this is what I want to do. No one seems to have an answer besides "Be lucky you have a job in the economy." Not the answer I really want. I am also a poet of sorts. This is my dream as I believe it to be, but for someone reason I haven't had my big break. Which has sent me into a rather large period of writers block. I am hoping more lucidity will spark my writing again or I can ask someone in my mind why I can't seem to write. Among many failed relationships of the past months with friends and an ex many questions have been coming at me that I dont have any answers for, so LD sounded like the best way to ask my inner me for some clarity.
