   "I think we dream so we don't have to be apart so long. If we're in each other's dreams, we can be together all the time." Calvin and Hobbes

"So  I am packing your things. There is no hurry, so I will  be careful how I pack, as not to miss anything that belongs to you."  My mom said with a sweet  and very calm expression on her face.

She was standing in my childhood basement from at least 30 years ago.. She looked so beautiful and healthy. She was grabbing a current sweater I own and bought last week. Strange because she was placing it in a duffle bag from my  soccer days when I was in 9th grade.

"But I need to leave now. "  I said out of breath and panicking. " I have so much to do mom and no time to pack."  I could feel my heart beating  through my chest. Then my heartbeat slowed as I watched my Mom do the impossible......Taking me back to my childhood but mixing in the present.

"Gelina." My mom said. "Sometimes it is not how your pack your things when you move but how you move while you pack your things. Be calm. We will get this done together."

Gelina?  Wow, I thought. I have not heard you call me that in a long time.

" I forgot that you would always say my name like that."  I said to my Mom.

My mom smiled knowingly and very softly.

"Wait." I said "How is it that you are here. Cancer took you....."

Then for what felt like a blink of an eye, my mind raced with many thoughts.

Mom you died....

But this feels real.....

How could you be here.....

 Wait do not go , let me hug you.......

Then I woke up. I was dreaming!  But It was so real.

I tried to close my eyes. At first very tightly, almost as it this could evoke the crystal clear image of  my sweet mom.again...

Auuggghh!!! Nothing! 

I sat up in bed  wanting to hit myself! I had practiced in the past to become more lucid during my dream visits from my Mom. But last night's slumber was a much needed one.  A very deep sleep due to stress. So I had not anticipated or expected a visit from my mom. But after much more thought, I realized that I have been asking for her help. My life, has been in much transition.  During many of my personal, deep moments of alone time, I have asked for her supportive touch from the otherside. I am sure she has sent it to me during the day, in the way of signs but because I my roller coaster, ying yang, emotional  ball of change that I am in , I am sure that I have missed her supportive signs....So as a last attempt, I think Mom paid me a visit while I was not distracted by the physical world.  

Just last week a sibling told me of a special dream she had of Mom. Waking her up for school. Not an easy task as I remember. But in this dream , my sibling said it came easy as she too was asking for Mom's   help.

SO todays question is . How many times have you had a dream visit. Do you need to understand this more. What is the sure sign that it is real.

1) You remember every detail. Words, sentences, thoughts and images.

2) You were in a very deep sleep

3) You have been asking for help or the dream helps you in an unexpected way.

Please write down your dream and see if parts of the dream are confirmed in your everyday life. After a dream visit take a moment to daydream a sentence or feeling back to your loved one.

Do you have an awesome dream visit or one that needs to be interpreted. Post to it here or facebook me!  I will do my best to help!

Thank you!

One of the biggest lessons my Mom instilled in me before she crossed over from cancer, was giving back to those in need. My mom was a very soft spoken and loving woman. She always had a unique way of dealing with loss. One such example was when I bought a new pair of boots and someone stole them. I was so livid and upset about it.

When I spoke to my mom about it, she looked at me with her expressive big brown eyes and said  "How many pairs of boots do you own?"

 I counted in my head and replied  " I own about 5 pairs of boots."

My mom smiled and said "Well, I know it might seem like a great loss to you and it is  terrible that someone stole from you but, did you ever think what drove that person to steal?"

I said "No mom, that thought never crossed my mind."

My mom replied, with a gentle smile "Maybe that person needed the boots more than you."

 She felt that there was a gift in every difficult lesson. At that moment, I felt that I had enough and maybe someone else had something they needed.

When my mom told me that her breast cancer had returned, I felt I was not strong enough to see her suffer again. Watching my mom fight cancer,  taught me about strength and being there for others. It made me appreciate that when my mom saw someone in need, she always had a call to action.That example helped me ...help her.  Even though she lost her battle with cancer, the gift in that lesson that I hold to me so close is that  I have taken on her call to action. So charity and making people aware of who need helps, is a very strong passion of mine.

I know that there are many charities that are hurting now because of the economy but here are a few that have a call to action. I have also had the honor of meeting them and know that they are dedicated and selfless in their desire to help. The charities below  are all 501c3 not for profits.

Lazicki's Bird House & Rescue, Inc.
Diane & Steve Lazicki are champions in educating the public and saving exotic birds. They offer  refuge and a place for birds to live out their lives when birds are abandoned, abused or when circumstances arise when birds owners cannot care for them.

They have sacrificed alot to keep their 501c3 going. I had a chance to visit the
Rescue and all you see are their efforts in saving this special birds. Without going into
detail they are in desperate need of donations. Due to a fire in their home in Connecticut they
had to move the shelter to  Rhode Island.
