So sorry for those that have nightmares.  I'm glad you are able to continue the dream Anne.  I do visualizations of hugging my son, but it's not the same.

May the Lord wrap His arms around us all.  Hugs.

Night mares oh how I despise them. I too know that fear of losing another. I live with it everyday, but I can't allow them to take over my life. Here's a little trick I use. It doesn't always work, but then again nothing works all the time. I try to think of how I would like the dream to end. In my nightmare I never get to my little boy. I hear him cry out for me, and I run to him but I never get to him. So When I wake up crying I fold my hands and dream while i'm awake that I do get to him, and that I hold him in my arms until the Lord comes. I'm not sure how it works, and it doesn't work all the time, but the times that it does I can fall back to sleep peacefully. I'm grateful even if it only works once in a while because that's one night I get to control the end even if it's only in my mind. Peace to all

Vasanthi, how are you doing?  You have not been here recently.  Check in.  I miss you.  Hugs.

Marilyn thanks for the link to the song.  I've never heard it before and I can relate.  Yes, I definitely believe you had an angel save you.

Anne, I have read so many times how music heals.  If that gives you comfort then you should definitely get out there and sing.  I love music, but I can't carry a tune.  It makes me sad, but I have to accept it.

Teresa I am so sorry you had a nightmare.  I know how real they are and I'm grateful I have not had any concerning my children or grandchildren.  Just other things.  I know they say everyone dreams but I hardly ever remember my dreams.  I've had a few of my son that I remembered and they seemed more like he was warning me.  I even pray to have one that I can give him another hug.  I miss that.

Feeling better today and have been keeping busy with chores.  Got behind.  Didn't do a thing since last Tuesday or Wednesday.  My back went out and I was limited to sitting and walking a little.  I think when we are physically attacked it does make our grief more pronounced.

May this new week be gentler and kinder to all.  Hugs.

Oh Teresa, what a scary dream! I think you expressed a fear that we all have if we have living children: is something going to happen to them, too? I can relate...

I had a bad dream last night.  I don't know how or why but my daughter was buried under the kitchen floor.  I woke up screaming "GET HER OUT!"  I guess I'm so worried about losing the only child I have left. 

I need one of those angels to visit me.

Thinking of you all. With love and understanding.

Today after I vented on my blog, I sat on the front steps broom in hand and sang. Sounds a little crazy, but I must say it sure made me feel better. Maybe tomorrow I will sit on the front steps with my real guitar and give the neighbors something to talk about! Peace to all!

Oh I believe there are angels among us. Sent down to us from somewhere up above. They come to you and me in our darkest hour. To teach us how to live, and teach us how to give. To guide us with the light of love! This is from the song Angels Among Us by the band Alabama  I sing this a lot when i'm lonely.

Oh Marilyn, what a lovely gift.  Your angel sounds beautiful.  I am truly happy for you.  Especially that you are able to enjoy this time with your family.

I love angels because I do believe they are with us and minister to us.  Earlier this month my husband brought home an angel for the small flower garden he has made for a memorial to our son as we also have kept his ashes so we don't go to a cemetery.  I had a small one out there and was mentioning that I would like a larger one, but thought I would have to be the one to get it.  I count it a blessing.

I would hope that all of you are experiencing some comfort and peace.  This weekend has been hard for me, but I know it will ease up again.  I just have to walk through it as I have so many times before.

This is a picture of our little area for Cha.
