Somehow I scraped out some time to do a little something for the latest Carrot Ranch Communications prompt.
I Saw Her Again
I ran into her the other day. She looked great. She got divorced and quit smoking a few years ago. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her look so happy and healthy. We talked and laughed just like we used to all those years ago. No topic was off-limits. No joke was too tasteless. She was just as brilliant and funny as I remembered. Somehow I hadn’t realized how much I missed her. Suddenly it occurred to me in all the excitement I had forgotten to hug her. So I reached over to her…
And then I woke up.
That’s the thing about dreams. You’re in the midst of a beautiful one, a great one…and then you wake up.

Such a sweet remembrance of an old friend. Now she needs to be hugged in real life.

Thank you so much. Unfortunately, we only get to see her in our dreams.

Great flash, Drew! It makes me think that by the time we figure out what is important to us, it slips away.
