I had registered on these forums previously, but I can no longer remember my username, so I chose another one!
I had quit lucid dreaming due to religious concerns (“demons infesting my mind!!!11”), however I have since given up most of my religious beliefs and, thus, my intellectual curisoity has once again attracted me to lucid dreaming.
I have set out several goals and timetables, my current one being “Remember at least 50% of dreams (7 dreams in 14 days, etc)” and it seems to be going quite well. The first night that I told myself that I am restarting this project I remembered a non-nightmare (usually I only remember nightmares). I did not remember much, but it is leaps and bounds ahead of what I was doing previously.
I cannot wait to re-enter the worlds that my mind will create for me each night. Confronting my pure emotions in such a form is an exciting adventure for me, due to the fact that in analyzing and interacting with this world I can learn something about my own desires or fears that I did not know previously. Not only this, but the seamless emergence of a completly new realm spontaneously appearing and disappearing inside my brain each night is a prospect that is incredibly exciting to me.
But enough of my excitement. Just wanted to inform you all that I have returned (even though you dont know exactly who I was before) and I’ll be reading up on all this (again) and pestering all of you about my latest dreams/accomplishments. 
Slava!
