AKA Abraham Bacoln

I had the beginnings of a lucid dream last night. I don’t remember the exact circumstances and they’re not important. What’s important is that I didn’t like the situation, I was scared and angry, and I said, “Well, it’s just a dream, so let’s change it.”

It was nice, because I didn’t just turn the dream off like flipping channels on a television, but instead changed myself and used the new me to take control of the situation and modify it to my liking.

Unfortunately the realization that I had in fact successfully altered my dream took me one step too far towards conscious, and so I awoke.

But it’s a start.

Dude. Have I ever told you about my summer of lucid dreams? Okay, it was only like three. But, they felt the same way. That feeling of being able to take control of what you’re doing is really fun.

I didn’t get anywhere near conscious, though. I was in deep sleep the whole time.

I know that some people can have lucid dreams on-demand, but I’ve never been able to do that. I just have to wait for them.

And, of course, when I do get one, I pretty much spend the whole time flying.

I occasionally have lucid dreams, but can only hover for brief periods.
