Wow.
Jani, this one left me with tears in my eyes, a lump in my throat and peace in my heart. What an amazing and blessed experience that was. We know that such a place exists because He is preparing us for it, but to get a glimpse of what it is like for loved ones who are already there--unbelievable!
I've been saving a six in case I read something that blew me away, and this one certainly fits the bill.
Blessings,
Nita

hi Jan,
I put my editing marker away, not that I needed it, and just enjoyed revelling in this story of love and hope. Adored it. Pulled on my uterus quite a bit. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Vaho
I love the idea of such paintings coming to life, and you can paint just as vivid pictures with your words. This realy brings in emotions too from delight at seeing the 'vision' to sorrow as it disappears to peace at the end.
A wonderful story

Hi Jan,
I do wish I had six stars for this one. It is a very interesting story and I am so glad you decided to share it with us. You, yourself have painted quite a lovely picture with your words. I don't think it was coincidence. She knew how much you missed her and wanted you to know how happy she was and you got to hear her say,"I love you," one more time. A beautiful, well written story. Thank you for sharing and God bless and best wishes!

Thank you so much! I am honored to think you wanted to give it six stars. That's good enough. :-) I agree with your thoughts on this! I believe that is exactly what she wanted to do!

Comment from CALLAHANMR
Hi Janilou:)
What a lovely and wonderful dream you have shared. This appears to be a lucid dream, so real that you took an active part in it and may even have difficulty separating it from dreaming and being awake.
I studied lucid dreams in graduate school, where we learned to induce them with hypnosis. We never told people what to dream but set parameters to bring up meaning from past events.The results were dramatic and fascinating.
It is likely that the anniversary of your mother's passing triggered your vivid dreams. Just accept thre peace and comfort that it gives you.

Thank you so much for this review or comment. I have reached a point where I cannot hope to catch up with my reviews in need of answering without resorting to a carbon copied response. I hate doing it, but with 700 plus unanswered, I can't keep up! Goat kidding season is looming, and we are spending more and more time outside preparing our buildings. My muse is driving me crazy trying to write as much as she can, before we end up on our three-to-four month sabbatical. LOL. I'm hoping you will forgive me. I have read every review, corrected nits and errors found and carefully considered every suggestion made. I am so glad you have enjoyed my work, or at felt it worthy of a comment.
I am trying to review your work as much as I can also, and by using a C.C. here, I have more time left to read all your wonderful stories, articles and poems, as well!
Hugs,
Jani

Wow, that's a great image. Nice choice. That was a very interesting and touching vision. It's possible the timing is coincidence, but who really knows for sure? Amazing all the same. Thanks for sharing. :-)

Captivating content and believable, authentic author's voice. A peaceful composition of life after life. Brilliantly told. Great work.

Comment from penelope
This is beautiful, Janilou. Yes, she was allowed to visit and give you this important vision. Amazing, isn't it. You should treasure this beautiful message. My sister who is quite the skeptic told me she had an amazing dream the other night; she said she saw two angels, very colourful, almost behind a translucent veil. It must have impressed her enough to tell people about it because she said she never remembers her dreams. I've had visions like yours; they're precious. Penelope
