As a child, my mother taught me the powers within one's dreams. As a teenager, I started teaching myself to control, rather than fear, my dreams. As a result, I have simultaneously grown stronger and wiser over the years. So last night, when I dreamt of going places and sharing experiences with Ma that have never and will never be, I languished. It was so wonderful to communicate with the healthy version of my mother from my childhood. When she held my hand as a guide, and listened to my vivid descriptions of the world's contents. To rise from such a blissful abyss into such a painful consciousness today... grateful to be alive, yet disappointed that my bladder dragged me away from my temporary nirvana... Keep enjoying "our day", Ma
