5/15/15: I went to bed. I missed Nick so much. A friend of mine wanted to go out but I just couldn't that day. It was a Friday night. I dint have it in me. So I put on Nicks shirt and grabbed his sheet that his sister gave him when he was 18. I didn't cover myself up with it and just held it and I fell asleep.

Then I had the most amazing dream I have ever had. The hills were so beautiful and green. It was crowded with people. I was walking along when I saw Nick. He was talking to a group of people. Which I thought was odd because he was extremely shy. He was talking to them about love and how he wanted to help people find love like the love his mom taught him, pure and unconditional. He looked happy, he was smiling.  I was sitting off to the side, just looking at him talk, I was smiling with tears in my eyes. I was happy for him. Then someone in the group asked him "How about you? Did you ever love anyone?" Then Nick turned over to me without saying a word and he hugged me. I felt him, it was so real. The detail of what I felt when I hugged him, I just knew it had to be real. I felt his shoulders, his biceps. The hug was as tight as the ones he used to give me. We hugged for a long time. With his hug he transferred a feeling a peace to me.

Then I woke up. That is how my dream ended. I woke up and the first thing I said out loud is I got my hug, I probably said it about 10 times. I am so grateful for that dream real or not.  I told Nick's mom about it, I wasn't sure how she would feel about these type of things and she said " What a beautiful dream and a heartwarming message from Nick. What a character!   I'm‎ so glad he came to you. I remember we both watched "Heaven is For Real" and talked about it. I think you needed that hug and I needed to hear about your dream. And Nick's smiling at both of us. . .Stay open to all the little moments when an angel reaches out to touch your heart" Her words made me believe that it was really Nick who came to me.

What a blessing. I have no doubt that it was real. I only hope that I get a message from my wife. I am so happy for you. I can only imagine how much peace that experience brought you. My first wife has visited me several times in my dreams and I was sure that it was really her and not just my imagination.

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More

Sibling Loss

This group is for anyone that has lost a brother or sister. Sibling loss is often minimized and people don't realize how devastating losing a sibling can be. I lost my older sister and my life will never be the same. She was my only sibling, I looked up to her, I went to her for everything. I lost my past, present and future. It is traumatic.See More

Triggers Continue to Surface

Late February is a challenging time of year for me.  Jen’s birthday is the 23rd and serves as an annual reminder of all of the potential that was lost…Her’s (mainly), mine, the world’s honestly.  This year she would be 52…It is increasingly hard to imagine, through all of the iterations possible, what she could have become, what was to be her (significant) impact on the world.That being said, things, emotions, have largely settled down since I committed a potential version of what could have…See More
