She saw him in awaking dream. Standing with his head hung low. She, his mother asked, “Son, Is there something on your mind?” He replied, “There is.” “What is it? “ “I've been crying.... ” “Son, what are your troubles?” Wiping his tears He cried,  “I caused so much pain. I can't fix it. I don’t know what to do...” Her tears joined his, and cried together Hugging, swaying, gently rocking. She looking over his shoulder   A white Light began to part the clouds of rain. “Son, have you gone to the Light?” He said “No" with his head on her shoulder Asking forgiveness He cried a river of tears. Her heart melted with love, "Let your troubles wash away. " "How can I bear  the Light? I murdered me! I took my life! ” Soothing his brow, she reminded him of his sickness His depleted body His tired soul. The isolation he endured And his desire - not to be a burden She spoke of her deep love Acceptance and appreciation “Son, I am deeply grateful. You came to me with Your sorrow, your pain, your regret, your love. You fill me with understanding." You brought my worries relief. Washing away my pain You fill my heart with gratitude. Please, embrace the joy we shared together The sweet memories. Heart to heart Mother & Son hugged in understanding In forgiveness of their misunderstandings In the joy of acceptance, gratitude, unconditional love. "Son, Do you see The Light? It is opening for you" He looked up from their embrace,   Sighed and simply said, "Yes." "Peace be always yours, my dear son." "Will you forgive me? I was so lost Lost in deceptions Lost in hurt Lost in pain. My heart became hard. I can not bear that I broke your heart." "Son, please forgive me too. I feel like I let you down. I did not know how to reach you. I cried when I saw the webs that snared you. Again and again, I reached out and failed. I could not reach you. I lost you.' Her heart sank into pain and sadness. "Mom, your understanding fills my soul. Because, the truth has opened our hearts." The Light spoke, "Be love. Let it go! The blame, shame, self judgment, Self doubt The sadness and fear. Standing among their ancestors He stretched out His hand. "Mom, What do I do?” Pray with intention Connect with your heart Her son spoke to the Light "Please, forgive me. I have been deceived Please Bring me Home to the Safety of Your Arms" And The Light opened His arms, "Come unto me, my son." She looked deeply into her son's eyes "May my love go with you. You will always be in my heart Thank you for laughter. Thank you for our memories. Thank you for calling me your 'Akela.' My Heart is full. You have touched my life with your love. Be happy. Be open to Love.” It was an eternity, within a moment. That they shared together Their last embrace.   Looking into his eyes He smiled Then turned and walked toward The Light. Light's, love opened His arms, “Welcome Home. I have been waiting for you....” And the words of a song danced through their hearts Oh, no more crying Oh no more troubles All has been washed way.....

:My son passed in 2017. This is a dream I had of my son and I, after he passed. In my dream, he did not want to leave his siblings and I before he could fix the pain he had seen in each of us due to his death. He was feeling guilt, remorse, and wanted to fix the pain he had caused before allowing himself to go to the Light. In this dream we talked and I saw him go to the Light. I share this because I know I am not the only one in life who has felt this pain. I wish to bring a measure of comfort and a gift of understanding and healing.
