Hi, I'm new

[Thamber]

Hi all. I have been interested in dreams ever since I can remember. I began keeping dream journals in middle school and Ive been keeping them on and off since then ( I'm now 34) Life and career and stuff got in the way for a while and I got away from it but I really miss recording my dreams. I read a book on lucid dreams forever ago and have had a few but they were random and I didnt have much control so on Feb. 10th I began lurking here and got back into journaling and I also began reality checks and Ive had one lucid dream since then yay.This seems like a wonderful place to get advice and learn how to have more lucid dreams and have better control. Ive learned a lot lurking so thanks to everyone who has contributed knowledge here

Hi, Welcome to DV!

[Thamber]

Thank you Hidden I see youve had 11 LDs thats so cool . I cant wait!

Most of them didn't last very long. I'm still waiting for a truly amazing one. But even just becoming lucid for a few seconds is pretty neat. Good luck on future lucids.

Hi all thanks for the warm welcome Hidden, even though they are short ( mine are too) its still a great start. We will get there! ca1um132, Thank you. yes, the tutorials are great! I need to read again and really let stuff sink in lol. Barbizzle, Thanks for the link. Yes its pretty neat to read them. I have less and less the further back I go. From the earliest years only a few scraps of paper have survived ( I guess being a pack rat payed off) I found them while cleaning out storage and boxes. They are in pencil and its really faded and hard to read some so I use pen now in case I want to look back. Also I was not very orgnizes about it I would write on whatever was around.like the back of my homework etc...and I didnt date everything but still its kinda neat to have them. I found DV by googling lucid dreams and this site popped up. My goals?? good question. At first it was curiosity and the memory of my few LD where I didnt have too much control. I miss taking the time before bed ( I used to tell myself I would remember my dreams before I slept) and in the morning or if i woke at night, to just slow down and get in touch with myself. I had a habit of looking up dream meanings etc. and trying to analyse my dreams. I miss being more in touch with my subconce ( sp?) Plus LDing with more control just sounds like so much fun See you all around
