Dreams...

This past week has been a week of vivid dreams but this morning I woke up from one of the most vivid dreams Ive had in awhile.  Someone I knew that I had not seen in about a year was here.  Nudging at me to wake up as she sat at the side of my bed.  She had let herself in because she has always had a set of keys.  I woke up a bit shocked that someone was there, rubbed my eyes and said "hello".  It was actually cool to see her again.  Yet I saw her differently.  Like she "belonged" yet at the same time...didn't.  Like she "fit" but only for a season.  It was as though this is the way it was always meant to be.  She was just passin through...until next time.

Time has allowed me to see and accept many things.  The permanence of a few even though they are absent.  Even though there is silence...it makes no difference.  I do hope that wherever she is, she's living up to all the great things I saw in her.  There were many...
