Thread: My first LD

Alright....it was intense......but as a kid I'd often have dreams where I'd realize I was dreaming, but it wasn't fully lucid because I was under the impression that everyone in my dream was sharing it with me. I watched Waking Life about a year ago and I was blown away and completely interested in Lucid Dreaming. And then this weekend....it happened!! I was walking down a street in a complete downpour of rain. All of a sudden it just hit me that I was dreaming. I was fully aware that I was in my bed asleep next to my girlfriend. The thing I got so excited about (which I'm sure is pretty common with everyone) was just how REAL everything was. I remember thinking, "wow....i know im dreaming, but i can feel every drop of rain and can smell the moisture and humidity"...needless to say my interest has skyrocketed since...You truly have to experience one before you realize how POWERFUL that experience is...I look forward to my next one immensely!!!
