I awoke today with my dream still fresh in my mind. I was talking with my siblings and our dog was there too. Just like old times.
We were in the living room and while we talked I was petting him.
I felt the pressure of his precious head on my leg as I smiled down at him.
I kneeled down in front of him and I gave him a big hug as I cried and said “I miss you so damn much.”
He nestled his face in my shoulder…then I woke up.
I could still feel his soft fur between my fingers as I slowly gained consciousness.
The warmth and pressure of his heart pressed against mine again lingered.
Surprisingly, I didn’t weep when I recalled the dream. Instead I sleepily flipped over onto my back, put my hands over my heart and smiled. I laid there just like that for a while. Then I decided to write about my experience here because it’s just so beautiful and I wanted to share that. Now I’m gonna go make myself some coffee and sit in our garden. 💛🦋
