dream

my alarm went off this morning when i was in a deep, deep state of mind.. dreaming. i didn't realize it was my alarm for what seemed like an eternity.. normally i hit the snooze within seconds. i think this may have been a minute. the dream is floating through my head, and I'm not quite able to put it to words. But before I lose it all.. I was at dinner with a family.. mom, dad, son and daughter.. and I was holding the son.. who had scratches and marks all over his face.. and I remember the sensation of his face being very close to mine. And his little sister was having some sort of episode, crying and going off.. out of control. There was a feeling in me that she had some sort of emotional or mental disorder, and that possibly the little boy did too. Because he was very small.. yet seemed to be quite wise and powerful as I was holding him in my arms looking into his eyes. I asked him.. "doesn't she bother you?" or drive you crazy? something like that. he looked at me and whispered.. but with amazing force.. it used to. but then i realized, you just have to keep her distracted.. talk to her and play with her and then she is ok. i could feel the love emanating from this little boy. the love he had for his sister and his acceptance of her issues. and his acknowledgement that she may have problems, but she is ok as long as you show her your love instead of other approaches of trying to get her to be quiet or control her or box her in. It's almost as if she is smarter than the adults trying to reel her in and her brother has figured this out. He is also smarter. I feel like he is one of my angels. just feeling his presence in my dream.. his face right in front of mine.. radiating peace, acceptance and love. gentleness.
