Today I learned that unless one sets themselves goals in life they will drift along from one task to another without seeming to have done anything.

On the lucid dreaming thing... I did this about 10 odd years ago. I kept having the same dream over and over again where I was running in the street round a corner with some other kids... until one time I stopped at the corner and I said to the others 'Hey, this is a dream'. I stopped running and I started to walk. I think I did it one other time too but I can't remember. Was pretty cool though.
