First LD experience ever

[T. rice]

k so im pretty new at this stuff... on my second try of attempting a lucid dream i succeded. It didnt last long because i got to excited.. I remember i was on a farm and there was a long row of trees beside me on my left. it was so weird cuz as soon as i was in that dream im like wow this is a dream lol... once i figured it was an LD everything started to get blurrry so i spun around to try to clarify the dream.. everything got clear. i then decided i wanted to ride around on a dirtbike (random i know eh) so i imagined a dirtbike and it was there in front of me. but i woke up before i got to ride it.. haha i was so mad. maybe next time

Good job on having your first ever Lucid dream. I am noticing that the first one may catch you off guard, but having another one is even more difficult. You would think after the first one, the rest should be a piece of cake right? NOPE

T. rice, congratulations on your first lucid dream.. and on remembering to spin to make things clear! Now that you know lucidity is possible.. may they only get better!

Well done! It did seem as if you had a lot of control for a first LD, if that deteriorates don't give up hope, that happened to me and I'm having to re-learn it all . It's really not that bad though, you'll learn that the best thing about a lucid dream is it's sheer length. My longest ever was about half an hour but it seemed twice as long. Don't give up trying to do out of this world things when you feel like it, it's just the less excitement you have the longer the dream is, there's no right or wrong way. My tip is feel in your pocket for a remote (one should conveniently be there) and "turn up" clarity, awareness and length. Worked a treat for me!
