I loved my dreams last night.
Sandi, the cat that I lost almost 2 weeks ago, walked into the room and I said to my Dad, "Do you see her?!" He said, "No," but he bent down and picked her up and could feel her in his arms.
Then she came walking over to me and I scooped her up and cuddled her. I could feel her soft fur, and I put my head down on her side, to listen to her purring, like I always loved to do. I miss the sound of her purring beside my head at night.
Then she walked over to the spiral cat staircase that I built for her, went up the stairs, and then went right through the ceiling. I waved and said, "Bye!"
I looked out the front window and saw her stalking some kid who was walking down the sidewalk. She pounced on him and he could feel something happening, but couldn't see anything, so he was wondering what the heck was going on. I was laughing, watching the spectacle.
Then she came back into the room again, and I said, "Oh, you're back," and I picked her up again.
I woke up and let out a sad, "Oh," realizing that it wasn't real. But then I started smiling, because I felt as though I'd really been with her again, and I'd been saying how much I just wanted to cuddle her again and listen to her purr, and I felt like I had the chance to do that.
I think the brain is an amazing thing. I guess it gets tired of us being so sad and it has the ability to give us what we really need, in order to help us to heal and feel better again.
