Last night I was in a Non-Lucid that was so incredibly vivid and coherant, even after I woke up and recalled it, that I actually "passed" a reality check in my dream.

I was in my middle-school, on the hockey team (I've never played hockey and I've been out of middle school for years). I recognized the hockey aspect as being strange, so I walked outside and did a reality check to pass my fingers through the palm of my left hand. They didn't go through my hands, and I even inspected my hands closer and to me they looked normal...

I remember thinking, "If this turns out to be a dream, I will have no idea what is and isn't reality when I wake up!" because it was so real...


Now I am afraid that I will forever fail my reality checks...

Any suggestions or tips on how to get around this in a dream? Did I convince myself it wasn't a dream, and therefore it wasn't? Maybe when I do reality checks in real life, I do them with the assumption that they will always succeed, so they do in my dreams as well... Damn...
