A wishful dream even when pain rained on me.

Our dreams are usually a combination of verbal, visual and emotional stimuli. It is a series of thoughts, images, sensations or  cherished aspirations. I don't remember a beautiful dream which I can think of except for the nightmares that comes haunting me of an impending illness or trouble either for my loved ones or for myself. It is like a kind of premonition that something unpleasant is on my way and to be prepared for it. It may be an omen or insight according to what each one believes. A dream may be something to look beyond the obvious.  

But a beautiful dream when pain rains on your body, making you toss and turn in bed and then finally slip into a deep slumber, it is like a coolant over you.  I found myself travelling a train that looked like a home on wheels, through a picturesque terrain. I found myself holding my breath at the beauty of nature, the hypnotic effect it had on me who was writhing in pain. It was the beauty of the day, the land through which I was travelling that held me in awe. 

What was striking is that they gave the impression of elusive beauty, with the misty clouds travelling alongside making you feel happy and giving a feel of having heard the melodious songs of all the beautiful birds. The mountains with all its mist, running alongside, wanting me to jump out of the train and trot to the top of the mountain to take a whiff of the fresh  misty air. The sun playing hide and seek, showing me the powerful rays pepping in through the clouds.

When I was lost to the nature surrounding me, I heard a man calling me and he came and sat beside me asking me about my pain. He suddenly asked me, “You smile even in your pain?” Then he quizzed “What is your only wish even in such a situation?” I told  my only wish today that was only growing stronger even in my pain, he smiled and just left with a smile saying, “So be it.”

I don’t know what dreams mean nor the interpretations of them, but I do believe in little blessings that come my way. And I find my happiness in it. Today's pains are forgotten tomorrow, but moments of joy remain a memory forever. I look forward to live every moment of my life fully with joy.
