20140628- A sweet dream : Of Mansion Of Stars and a Dog named Peggy

Me and my pretty dog Peggy - taken in 1981.....


I had not been having nice dreams for a pretty long while.
But on this sat morning of 28th June 2014, I woke up with a big smile on my face and a warm fuzzy feeling in my heart.   
Because the Lord blessed me with a awesome dream. I woke up at 8am.

It was kind of strange as I was not feeling well on Friday evening. Decided to rest and skip the corporate prayer.  Had been down with bad flu over the last 2 over weeks and did not recover fully.  And for the first time in my life, I had very low blood pressure and low heart beat that evening. It was definitely hypo as I felt really lethargic. Could not get to airport to pick John at ten that night.

I dreamt I was in an attic kind of room.  The extra 2 bedrooms that I did not even knew it existed. The outside led to a rustic shed with trees and a well.  It opened to a big nice garden where I could see lots and lots of stars in the night! And some of the stars were shooting with blazing trails . Wow...awesome sight! And there was a stairways that led me down to a lower garden.  There I met my dog Peggy - a white samoyed which I owned as a teenager.  She was leashed. I wanted to unleash her but John discouraged me for fear of she running off perhaps. Yep, I missed my Peggy.

I wanted to borrow a sleeping bag and a poncho to lie down in the garden to see the sky...and I woke up! It was a very pleasant dream indeed.  No words can describe. Umm.

Reflections
Perhaps I had been 'haunted' by a bad sighting of a bloodied recent blog which was eventually taken down by Google shortly. Thank God for that.  And this dream kind of given to antidote my scare. Yes, that sicko blog troubled & disturbed me for a while. 日有所思, 夜有所梦。Thank God it was a good dream and not a nightmare!

Reminded of John 14"Let not your heart be troubled, you believe in God, believe also in me.  In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you.  I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there you may be also."

Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you; not as the world give, give I unto you.  Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Is that a special attic with roof garden prepared for me I wonder? Will I see my beloved doggy again up above I wonder? How sweet it would be. Heh heh.
