I dreamed I could fly again.
I'm never sad when I wake up from those dreams.. it's more like I am empowered for awhile. I know, it's really cliche when I think about it, but it's true. I have the dream, and then for days I find myself thinking about it. Remembering how easily I could thrust myself forwards and upwards and then I'd be flying... like peter pan.. or tinkerbell, or just some beautiful butterfly. In the dreams I can both see myself fly, and feel myself fly.

Today it occurred to me that the flying dreams seem to come along when I begin to feel a little closed in, as if to remind myself that I am as free as I want to be, as unencumbered as I make myself. I think my dreams come from my soul.
I know that my soul travels quite often as my body sleeps. It comes back to me after having spent time with those I love both here and on the other side, and often I feel renewed, and comforted, and full upon its return. Sometimes I feel my body jolt in the night and when I do it wakes me just enough to realize that my soul has returned to my body. It always makes me smile when I feel that jolt.. I always know that something beautiful has just happened and I easily drift back to sleep knowing that nothing can ever really separate me from the people I love. Not time, not distance, not even death.
