She passed away one day- my dearest Mom, too soon, so young. I felt sad and alone; so much unsaid, so much undone. I begged God, tell me, please if she was there with Him in Heaven, with no pain; in Heaven, smiling down on me. This was the only wish I carried in my broken heart dreaming of an answer. With hopeful thinking and prayer, I begged, “Dear God, please let me know.” And so, as time went by, this sole wish became the daydream- that filled my waking day. Slowly, some weeks went by remembering the happy times tucked deep within my heart. But then, she came to me- sat close to me upon my bed! Arms outstretched, with a smile- and magic words, “I am okay!" Thank you, dear God, for granting me- My dream within a dream!
