LJ Idol Week 4, Prompt: The axe forgets, the tree remembers

I have always had very vivid dreams, very few of which I remember. As a child, I had night terrors, and would run down the hallway screaming, usually crashing into my dad in the middle of the hall as he was coming to check on me.

How wonderful to get some peace. I so wish I could receive "visits" from my grandma (now gone.)

I do often suddenly dream about someone from my past I'm not in touch with anymore. I guess my mind remembers them, even if they have faded from the forefront of my thoughts.

If you ever dream of my Grandma Dorothy, do let me know. She loved keeping in touch with family and friends. Often when I check social media, I think of how much she would have loved it if it had been invented before she died.

Hugs. I enjoyed reading your entry. And ..sweet dreams! :)

I love it when deceased people “pay me a visit” in my dreams. This was so relatable.

It’s extremely rare for me to remember my dreams, but it’s a lovely way to receive messages from loved ones.
