Have you ever had a dream, that felt real, almost like a visit from someone in Heaven? Last night/early this morning I felt as if my dream was a visit from my grandma in Heaven. I will admit I have had dreams about her many times, too many to count, since she was welcomed into Heaven, but this one was different.
Like most dreams the location was far out there, her showing up at my old high school while we watched what seemed like a class reunion/class band from my parents high school class. I know far out there, but hang with me. After that we went to this open grassy area, and just hung out. Laying there together talking about how beautiful it was. At one point I laid right next to her for a selfie, because I knew it might be one the last chances to get a picture together. As I laid right next to her, I thought I probably shouldn't lay this close because I have a cold, which currently at the moment I do have a cold. But I thought maybe if I hold my breath long enough to get a picture with her, than she won't catch my cold. Silly I know, but it felt so real, it brought my current life into the picture, strange, out of body experiences. But we got a great picture together. I clearly remember her hair not being done like she used to, which at the end of her time on earth she didn't get her hair done at the salon anymore & she always would mess with her hair and say how it was such a mess and she wasn't all "done up"...but in that moment she was still glowing and so happy. Shortly after our picture together I saw my grandpa walking on the path towards us. He was shocked that she was out there with me, and instantly my grandma said "I know I shouldn't have walked out here myself, but I walked down the stairs with no issue today". They both smiled.
My grandma looked over at me and asked if I had time to go play Yahtzee with them, I said that I had to get going, but next time. I woke up right after they were walking away on the path together.
5:30am I woke up with tear filled eyes. It was so real. It was a visit like I have never had before. Writing this now, I am a sobbing mess. If you have ever had one of these visits from Heaven you will know how this feeling overcomes you and you don't know how to wrap your head around it or how to feel, other than being blessed with a visit from someone you love that can no longer be here on earth with you.
When I woke up I was trying to make sense of it all. So many things were so real, so accurate, and dreams never really make sense. I questioned Yahtzee, why Yahtzee? We always played cards and cribbage, then I remembered we used to play a lot of Yahtzee as well. The other thing I couldn't remember was what she was wearing, I don't remember seeing her face clearly, but I remember her hair, how happy she was, and how she was beaming from head to toe. Most of all, I got to sit and visit with her again...I have missed our visits so much! While I know my selfie with her wasn't physically real, it will forever be imprinted in my mind.
Whether a dream or a visit from heaven, I'm so thankful, grateful & blessed she chose to come visit with me. My wish is for everyone to experience this feeling at least once in their life, because these Heaven visits are truly remarkable.
As I sit her having a good cry, it is one of those cries where you are so happy it happened but also so sad because you never know when those visits will come again.
That's all for now.
