   Hello,   
      
   I have thought I have had lucid dream.   
      
   But I wonder if I have only had the "feeling" that I was lucid.   
      
   Feelings release chemicals (in some cases, endorphins for joy).   
      
   So, who is to say that during a dream, our body releases a chemical that   
   affects the faculty   
   of our minds that leads us to believe we are in control of things.   
      
   How do we know (really know) the difference between controlling a dream, and   
   (in the nocturnal   
   hours when truth hides in the shadows), "feeling" that we are controlling a   
   dream?   
      
   How do we really really know we are being lucid in a dream?   
      
   t.
