Subject: Lucid dreaming ruins the point of dreaming in the first place

I find that dreams are mysterious. Every other dream is something different, and kind of random. It's like living in your own personalized fantasy. It's so mysterious and different each time.

Lucid dreaming kind of ruins that point, doesn't it?

For those unaware, lucid dreaming is when you become "God" or your dream by realizing you are dreaming within the dream.

I've always wanted to lucid dream, but i've come to realize that even if i could lucid dream, it would be fun to do once, but regular dreams are just so much better in my opinion. So..why lucid dream?

The Universe demands to be noticed, to be seen, and dutifully noted.

What use all those incredible firework dimensions if no eye fixes and reflects, no brain takes notes, no heart moves with passion at the display?

NASA answers the silent cry of the Cosmos for recognition.

NASA is the witness and we fellow witnesses to the endless deeps.

To escape from the barren mediocrity that characterizes the lives of so much of the populace.

Having control of your dreams is one of the best things that ever happend to me.

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Cheeto is the only one among you that doesn't suck.

I can't say I've honestly ever controlled a dream. But I can't imagine it being a bad thing. Letting your imagination take a structured course every now and then can't hurt. Bringing order to chaos, right?

Besides, think of it as an adventure. If you truly have full control of your dream, then you can do just about anything you can imagine until you wake up. I don't know about you, but that sounds like a slice of heaven right there.

Or a slice of cheesecake. I don't really know, since I've never done it.

Debates are like jaw breakers; you eat away at one layer, only to find another lying beneath. Also, they cause people to choke up and die sometimes. True story.

Have you ever had a dream world that YOU built, building by builder, inhabited by other people that YOU thought up, that you can return to whenever you want?

No? Because I have, and it's incredible. I used to go there on a weekly basis, and it was like I never left. Not gonna lie, it was kind of creepy, but it was amazing to have that kind of power, it's like Inception, but it actually exists! GAWD.

Sure beats the hell out of regular dreams, in my opinion.

Never tried it. Might try it, but probably not.

Well, other people don't necessarily see that as the point of dreams.

I'm either a fool or an inteligent man, depending on how sleepy or angry I am.

I originaly made an account on 07.27.2007 but I wanted to link my GT and made this account. Don't forget your passwords!

Whenever I am aware that I am dreaming, I immediately wake up.

If I were to lucid dream, I would probably dream about procrastinating to wake up. Not to mention that I sort-of-kinda study the few times I do dream. It's interesting to figure out why I dream what I dream.

The more I think about it, the less I want to lucid dream intentionally. Why settle for a false achievement when I could go out and make it come true in reality? My imagination durring the day is just as powerful. Sure, impossible things could be "experienced", but that sort of dream has cause me enough confusion already.

There once was an ugly barnacle. He was so ugly that everyone died.

The end.
