“Come with me”

May 27th, 2008   Filed under: Missing Mom, hmmm

After my mom died, I wished I could dream of her, but I never had until the last few nights. The dreams have been identical, and so vivid and “real” that the first time I had it I awoke disorientated. I sitting in the backyard having coffee and she comes through the gate, joining me. After we chat for a while she gets up, holds out her hand, and tells me it’s time to come with her. I take her hand and walk with her, but someone (it’s been a different person each night) calls me back from her. Then I wake up.

And realize just how much I miss her all over again.

Crazy, huh?

    Not crazy at all. I would *love* to meet my mother in a dream like that.

    Hi.
    I come across ur blog by blogexpolsion, and it catched my attention out of hundreds i’ve surfed.

    That is a nice post u have. I believe repetitive dreams triggered by our mind during first stage of sleeping, where it was the thing that we thought the most. It happened to me once before, when I was so worried about my family breaking up, that I always thinking about it right before sleep. At that period, i found out that i kept dreaming almost the same thing, and also about the highlight of things happened that day.

    I have yet to experience a death to those who are dearest to me yet. But i feared of the day when it finally comes, it always give me tears just to think about it. I cannot imagined how deep is your feeling, but i guess someday i will have to find it out too, whether i want it or not.

    It’s not crazy at all. I find it comforting to dream about my mom who passed away in 2000.

    I thought your post was quite touching. I’d love to see my relatives who have passed, but it doesn’t happen much. Your post reminded me of particularly vivid dream before I got married where my beloved grandmother asked me if my fiance was a good man and did I love him. I said yes, and she was glad. Then she said she had to go. I wanted her to stay because I had so much to tell her, but she told me she had already stayed too long and had to go. I woke from that dream quite shaken, feeling as though I had actually spoken to her. Thanks for that.

    A lot of times, dreams are the way our subconcious communicates with us…have you considered having a complete physical..? The fact that she has indicated “it is time for you to go with her” it may be that there is an illness in your body that you subconcious is trying to alert you to. Possibly something that if caught early isn’t really a problem, but if left untreated could cause serious issues, maybe even be fatal..? I don’t mean to be a “scare monger” or anything like that, but that was the impression got when I read it. Using your Mother would be a good way to make you sit up and take notice…
    Just my thoughts.

    Not crazy…dreams are many things. One of them is as a vehicle those who have passed on can visit with us. Next dream you have, when you awaken in the morning give a quick hello and thanks to your mother. She was just letting you know she’s still around and was stopping by for a bit of a visit.
