Nearly There ^^.

Last night I think i might have been verging on LDing.

I’ve been trying for just over a week, all though my concentration did seem to slip a little - I have a bad attention span. But i began to get sort of worried because as time went on i started to fade further away from even trying to go lucid.

My dream was a late one in the night, in fact i must have had it around 5 am, for i woke up [Yet again thanks to Willow, my cat] and went back to sleep. I won’t go on with the detail of the dream, but i’ll start at a sensible place to start.

I got a bird’s eye view of a truck - a truck, it appeared as if i should have been inside of. It was driving along one of those happy-type of little computer worlds, where you can move things around - like a legoland game, for PC. Anyways, i had this song in my head that went something like “Still the same marching, i know…” and i was making it up as i went along and with every new line it would play out - as if by loudspeaker - over this little world, and it sounded so real and professional. As i begun to wonder why, it suddenly changed and i saw a little white icon - like a player, in said game - walking up a path towards a building. It passed a tree, and as it carried on the tree began to move along with it like someone was picking it up with a curser and moving it.

That’s when i realised, strange, huh? I felt the strangest sensation i have felt since i almost OBE’d. It was as if i could feel everything for the first time, my whole body. But then i heard a crashing sound - and i am unsure if it was in my dream or real life - and then i couldn’t remember for a few seconds, everything seem black with hints of orange - and then i felt myself back in my bed. For a second i wondered if i should move, try a reality check and so i did - but as soon as i moved i knew i had stopped dreaming and was awake.

I don’t know how i feel now, sort of happy, eagerly awaiting my sleep tonight. It’s renewed my quest for LD now! Just thought i’d let you know. And sorry for not being around lately, PC has gone all evil on me. Thanks for all the help, by the way.

Wow, I would really like too have a dream like that.
It seems soooo…I dont even know.
Good luck with your Quest too become Lucid…

Interesting. I was recently talking to my friend who has been trying to LD and he said once he figured it out, he heard a loud bang and he woke up. I suppose your mind incorperates suprise in your dreams in the form of a sudden, powerful action that you saw right before you woke up.

Sounds like a pretty awesome dream. It’s pretty awesome to have a dream like that that rekindles your enthusiam for LD’ing. :tongue:

Nice dream dude. The first few times I had a LD, I was so excited, I jumped right out of the dream and into my bed. After a while, you will say, that is weird, and then, wait I am dreaming! It sounds like for only trying a week, that is quite a success. It took me years before I had one(with only little motivation though).

What an odd dream… When you thought it was strange, did you have an inkling that it might be a dream?

Yepp, i did. I thought that and it was the weirdest feeling. Stranger then my almost-OBE. And the fact your friend had one too awesomer is really cool, and strange too - but it makes me feel a bit better.

I haven’t had one since, all though i was close last night. I’m gonna’ keep trying ^^. Thanks for the replies everyone, and good luck to you guys too! :grin:
