Forget me Not

Yesterday I had one of those naps where if I didn't take it I wouldn't be able to function for the day so i fell into a deep sleep. The dream felt so real and yet it wasn't. I dreamed of my childhood best friend who had died 19 years ago in a car accident, her name was Stacey. I dreamt that both of us were at some sort of indoor logging and it was unclear what or where we were going. Stacey said to me that she was going to leave and I asked her why, she said she was too far away from home. Then she vanished and I so I went looking for her and realized there was no room that she had occupied. And then that is when hubby woke me up for lunch. I told him my dream and he said it sounded like a sad dream and then that's when I started to cry. I still miss her even after 19 years has passed and even after I had gotten married and have a family now. I had been thinking of her and family lately and realized that I needed to go see Shauna (Stacey's mother) and Michellle (Stacey's down syndrome sister) but then I remembered Michelle is no longer on earth that she is with Stacey now. I had been thinking that perhaps this dream was to lead me to go see Stacey's mom and bring her some flowers to apologize for missing Michelle's funeral (I was out of town with husband). Most of my dreams have no meaning or distorted but this one seemed to have stood out. I have not forgotten you; Stacey, and I shall never forget you now and forever.
