Dream Catcher

A few months ago I was telling my sister about one of my "wedding nightmares". This particular dream involved me showing up to the wedding, forgetting it was THAT day, not having a dress or make up on, and my fiance stood me up at the altar. I woke up in a cold sweat. Thankfully these nightmares haven't popped up much more.

Along with planning a wedding I am planning a future. There are so many questions in my life during this time. They are questions that keep me up at night. That terrify me and give me nightmares. Questions that wake me up and wont let me sleep. Naps have been my best friend these days.

A few days ago I found a beautiful  handmade dream catcher sitting on my bed with a note from my sister. She told me she hoped it would help with the wedding nightmares, reassured me that the big day would be beautiful and reminded me that she was there for me.

Reassurance.
Family.
Love.
Promises of a happy future.
A shoulder to lean on.
Support.

That is what Erin gave me when she gave me the dream catcher. I doubt that sweet piece of art will catch my nightmares but knowing she is there for me will help me sleep a little better at night.


I don't know what the future will bring and I can't stop my mind and heart from fearing it. However I do know that those who love me will wrap me up in their love and arms, remind me that God has a plan, things will come together and that I'm not alone.

Whatever is keeping you up at night, disturbing your sleep, and terrorizing your thoughts - I hope that you have someone there to offer you peace of mind. I hope you have someone to remind you of the happiness that will soon follow, people who will wrap you up and and in some ways offer you a good night's sleep.
Sweet Dreams.
