You will get there!!! I too find it hard to notice dream signs but I have been lucid before and it is well worth it!!!!! I am now trying for more consistent LD's and it can get discouraging. I too believe everyone has the ability to control their dream but some have to work harder at it. Just listen to all these guys they know what their talking about hehe! Hope to hear about your first lucid dream soon... we will help you celebrate!!!

Anyway, Welcome to DreamViews!!! Here is a banana, I hope he will help you in your LD quest!
