np: nada surf - the weight is a gift
i had a dream last night. i don't often remember my dreams very vividly. usually i just remember snatches of dialogue, images, or the general idea. this one is similar to that, but the image is vivid.
i saw my grandpa charlie. looking as he did when he was older, near the time of his death but more sprightly than he had been in those last years. i saw him and i lept into his arms, giving him a tremendous hug. i've missed him quite a bit since he died back in 2002. as we turned around, i looked into a mirror mounted nearby and saw myself. i looked as i did when i was 5 or 6, not much older. and there i was with my grandpa. we turned again and i realized i was the age i am now.
and that's all i really remember. i'm glad i got to say hi. i hope he still knows how much i loved him.
