Why do YOU lucid dream?

[riptide4]

Let's start off by asking each other what we lucid dream for. You can combine reasons.
E.g: I lucid dream to:
.Gain a better understanding of life and the people around me...
.Have the freedom of choice without consequences...
.The plain amazingness of feeling things that I cannot in the real world...

breaking physics (one of my favs)
i can eat as many chips as i want

Lucid Dreaming is amazing!
I want to LD to see what I can create!
Create a room (or places) with air tunnels!
Fly and see amazing places.
Make myself feel better and learn things about me.
Do what I REALLY want. Without anyone else knowing it :3

But THE REASON I do it.. Is to find beauty in life again.. Find myself again.. And have something to be happy for again. (I have social phobia and maybe depression)

Well I don't LD anymore because I've taken a much-needed break from everything to clear my mind, but soon I'll pick up where I left off and I look forward to it.

Initially my motivation was plain curiosity and the desire to do anything I want, but this transformed into something more (or less if you will). I don't have a specific reason, nor a list of reasons why I do this. Now it just seems very obvious to me that working on increasing my awareness at all times is a wise thing to do. Just like eating and breathing is.
