DREAMS ...

Okay, well I came up with this when I was lying in bed one night and I thought about writing another poem - but it turned out to be very long, so I thought about making it a short story. Not too long. But we'll see how it all turns out. It's about what I imagine my best dream to be like. :) :) 
Also I don't think you can actually call it a short story. It's more like ... I just tell you about what I imagine it to be like :) Not really going to be a real "story". <3



So I fall asleep. And then I am in this park. The grass is not green, it has rainbow colors and ... for some reason everything looks so beautiful and it just gives you nothing to worry about. I walk to a small place, nothing impressive - just a normal house. And then I walk through the halls, there are paintings all over the walls, up to the ceiling - pictures of all the people on planet earth! I recon a few of my friends, they're tiny, but they're there. I get to a room which seems to be a big library. Books with different names on them, different ages, different colors - and a man sitting at a desk, going through some pages of a book witht he title "1994" ... the year I was born in! The man puts down the book as I enter the room. I don't even know what I am doing here, I just went in there out of curiousity. 
"Hello Michelle.", he says to me. He knows my name! "I've been expecting you."
"Who are you?", I ask, carefully. "I have never met you before, I am sorry."
"I am God.", the man says. I never really imagined what he'd look like, since we were always told not to imagine his face. I just believed he was there, somewhere. And now he's standing right in front of me with that expression on his face that makes me feel warm and comfortable. 
"Sit down, please.", he then says and I sit down in front of his desk. He lifts up the book and shows me one of the pages, with a finger he points on my name!
"What is that list under my name?", I ask, again. 
"That's all the mistakes you've made, Michelle.", God tells me. "A lot of mistakes."
I know I have made a lot of mistakes! But what could I do about it? 
"I wish I didn't make these. And I don't know why I actually made those mistakes - but they happened. I know I can't 'undo' them, but they happened ... and thank God I hurt noones feelings with them, well at least not that I know of.", I explain to him. Instead of getting angry he understands me! He smiles!
"I know what you mean.", he says. "I want you to tell me about each of those mistakes. And I will listen to you. We will take all the time we have ... and we will talk these things out, and if you answer honestly I will forgive you. And so will the people that you hurt, through your mistakes."
What an awesome person is he? He is so nice and understanding and caring. Not wanting to hurt my feelings ... even though I might have hurt other people's feelings. We talk and talk and talk and talk and talk! And he doesn't interrupt me - he just sits there and listens. I start crying over my mistakes and because I want him to forgive me, and all the other people as well. And after we finished he stands up and hugs me - what a warm hug that is. He is a true hero!
"The people will forgive you your mistakes, the world will - and so do I!"

After we finish the talk he takes me outside of the house. This place looks awesome! The pond in the park is made out of chocolate, a bit like Willy Wonka's place - but better! I look around and see trees, all green and plants that look just beautiful and gorgeous. In all colors I can imagine. Red, pink, yellow. Lillies, roses, jasmine ... they are the most beautiful colors I have ever seen! 
He takes me on a walk around his place and a little squirrel in the color of lilac walks by me. This place is better than anything I have ever seen before. If only it wasn't a dream!
... I meet so many awesome new people, I meet new friends, friends that I would never lie to, friends that I would never hurt, this is a place where I would never make a mistake - because this place means more to me than anything, because God is there. And because he is the only person that I can trust whenever I need help or have a problem. I can go to him whenever I want! I can talk to him, maybe even call him ... I don't know if they have phones at the place! It's so beautiful and I don't want to leave. But I have to! 


After our walk he brings me back to the place where I came from. There's this bed, right in the middle of everything. A light-orange and dark-orange striped cow passes by me, eating the rainbow-grass ... I love this place, I don't want to go back into the normal world. 
God sits right next to me and waits untill I fall asleep, he smiles the entire time, I can feel it. He is there for me and he whispers "I am there for you whenever you need me" ... I will never forget this journey. Sometimes dreams can make you realize what you did wrong, but they will also prevent you from not doing the same mistakes again! Mistakes are there to be made ... and to be learned from! And God is the person that we can always ask for help if something doesn't work the way I planned. I may not always be brave enough or I may not always stand up for him, but I know that he forgives me, and I know that he understand me and my feelings. I love him. And I will never forget my time with him, walking around the park and meeting his friends and the way he lives, getting to know everything :) This was by far the best dream ... and I learned so much from it. Fantasy is one of God's greatest gifts for me - and I highly appreaciate that and I am very thankful <3 Dreams are my reality!
