Hello, i've just joined. Wondering whether anyone can realte or has any suggestions or comments on a couple of things?

First is blocks. Unable to destine myself. Even though i'm lucid i can't always go through things and almost unconsciously put myself in situations where i have to, like in front of walls and windows. It's my ego that stops me, i think. I've got better and can occasionally get through something solid. What i've realised is that (the ol' matrix thing, 'there is no spoon' ) And say i'll think of the wall going through me, rather then me going though the wall (as 'there is no me') Or i'll look at a tree top and imagine the tree top coming to me, rather then me flying to the tree top. But it's a constant struggle, and kind of mirror my waking life so there is much to learn i guess. Any tips?

The next is the last week or so, i've had dreams where i know i'm lucid but can't stop it being just a normal dream. For eg. Last night i was on a rollercoaster with an older woman i didn't know. I was lucid, told her this was a dream, but had no control. Or the other night, more profoundly, sitting with 2 girls (grown up versions of girls i know in waking life) and we were all trying to arrange to meet in a LD. I then 'woke up' in my dream, and realised that the girls could not do that as 'i was 'only dreaming' so our plans would not work. Then i woke up proper! So it's like a dream scape in a dream scape. Has anyone experienced this? It's not that i want to control more, it's the opposite - i want to be free! Thanks for reading.
