Thread: A Newb to Dreaming

Sure, I've been here on Earth (so I've been told) for over 15 years now, and have had my share of dreams.

But, it wasn't until my friend randomly started talking about lucid dreams that I began to wonder about them (I take that back, I haven't ever wondered about a lucid dream before, not a dream in general.)

So, she took me here, and is now trying to bring me into lucid dreaming.

Ok, now, a small bit about me and my dreams. I personally cannot remember many (if any) good dreams. I only can remeber vivdly a horrifying one and a semi-horrifying one.

The really bad dream (nightmare, if you will) was one about the first girl I ever liked. Now I won't go into too many details, but it involved her rape, abortion of an unwanted child, and then gruesome death by a murderer, (all the same, evil man,) and then two biggest things about this nightmare that I can never forget is the screaming of her, and the day I visited her gravestone (the moment that I woke up.) I awoke that day screaming and sweating, in disbelief that it was a dream.


The other one is a bit less clear, but it taught me something.
It started out as a picture of Pluto (the planet at the time) and for some reason, it had a volcano on it, and it errupted, and the whole planet fell out of orbit and was gonig to hit Planet Earth. Then, the scene shifted to Earth, and I (then a 9 year old boy) was flying on a jet pack in the massive room where everyone was. I can remember that is was very futuristic, and many people were flying. But, it was all in this big white room. I can remember flying around, all panicked that the world was gonig to end. Then, I saw a bunch of crazy guys, drunk (they looked a lot like my dad's firefighter friend's) playing cards and cracking jokes; not doing anything to leave. I tried to go over to them and tell them that everyone was going to die, and that we needed to do something to save ourselves, when something stopped me. The fire from Pluto hit the windows, and everything went blank. Then, I was standing in a gray room, looking up at someone, (presumably God) who was impossibly tall, and pointed a finger at me. He said 'Treat everyday like it was your last, and fear not death.' THen I woke up, sweating, but not petrified. (Scratch that, I had just seen a figure of powerful standing, and I was little, so I was pretty afraid.)


The real reason I am here, and not ignoring my friend is more than likely due to my desire to do everything before I die. I have been a great many places, and I want to see everything worthwhile (in otherwords everything on Earth and beyond.) These Lucid Dreams, as you call them, from what I can imagine, are something to experience, I mean, even if I have visited all of Earth, there is this whole new dream world to discover as well. (Well, maybe this can occupy that 1/4 of my life that I am sleeping...)
