Golden Tales From The Dream World

Well this being a new account and all I guess some proper introductions are in order.
I'm C.J., I joined DV about 2 years ago now in search of lucidity in my dreams,
a goal that I was surprisingly able to reach sooner than I thought.
My quest to lucid dream taught me a lot about lucid dreams as well as myself,
though for some reason, after about 2 weeks of recording my dreams and training myself to lucid dream,
I just kind of stopped.
Why am I back? To be perfectly honest, it's because after a very long time of zero lucidity, I had a DILD.
It felt so great to be lucid again, but I noticed something.
I couldn't use any of my my dream powers.
It was so frustrating that during my once in a blue moon lucid dreams I couldn't even do anything I really wanted to.
At that moment I decided, I would restart my attempt of being a lucid dreamer,
this time with a cool head and with my newly acquired knowledge about the world, my dreams, and more importantly, myself.

It's good to be back ^_^
