Fully Awake


Often, when we are having a bad dream, a nightmare, we suddenly wake up. There is a shaky, panicky feeling followed by relief. It's relief knowing we are okay, all is well and we can catch a deep breath. 

Is heaven like this? Do we reach that place and become fully awake? Do we see that the nightmare of this sinful world is passed us? Do we feel relief as our feet are firmly planted on the streets of gold? Do we catch our breath as we approach our creators throne? Does the sadness drift away? Does the panic subside as we realize we have made it home and everything is finally and really and completely okay? 

It's been two weeks today since I lost my mother. I pray she is fully awake and at peace.
