Lucid dreaming is the most amazing thing I have ever experienced. For a while I was doing a lot of reading on lucid dreaming, keeping a dream journal, discussing lucid dreaming, and so forth, to the point that I would dream about thinking about lucid dreaming, which made it very easy to realize that I was in a dream. This made it possible for me to have lucid dreams several times a week.

In a lucid dream, you are god of your own universe. Reality becomes irrelevant and you are free to roam the depths of your own subjective experience unhindered by the sensory input of the external objective universe. Once you learn to get used to the fact that your own expectations determine the universe around you, and gain conscious control of your expectations (it isn't easy), you are literally capable of experiencing any environment you can conceive of. It's just so fucking cool I don't know where to begin. It's like the ultimate virtual reality video game combined with an intense psychedelic trip.
