First Post And First LD

[Cronaldson]

Hello, Im Aaron. I'm 19 and have only just started my journey with LD. I've kept a journal for about a week now logging as much as I remember from each night and practiced daily reality checks. In only a week I have achieved my first lucid dream. I was on a bridge at water level in Portland, knowing the bridge could come up for boats I was trying to cross quickly but the bridge did come up. I turned around to see huge waves of water from both sides filling the bridge and eventually taking me submerged in the water. This is where I became lucid, I was able to stay calm and realize I could breathe underwater making me know I was dreaming. The water took me to a unfamiliar house where I jumped around weightless for a bit then I tried to fly but the ceiling stopped me. I figured I would be able to go through the ceiling? or fly through idk maybe I wasn't strong enough yet or simply I needed open space to fly in lol. but anyway I didn't fly but looked around the room and saw my ex-girlfriend who I explained to that I had achieved lucidness which she didn't really respond too, but kissed me a few times. after telling her I felt as though I had kinda come out of being lucid. thinking about it though I was a little disappointed cause I wasn't and I could have done so much more in my dream. It was the first experience and not my last im excited to journey farther with such a powerful resource. LD makes me excited to be home and sleep ha. any and all comments or thoughts are welcome thanks! (:
