I felt a mix of happiness and joy, as well as other mix of emotions, as I entered what felt like heaven, and just as I was about to enter in, I felt a hand touch me,
It was my husband waking me up, in time for the second service, for church. It was such a short nap, or at least felt like it.
I opened my eyes, and immediately thought to myself. I am back on earth, I don’t want to be back here! I want to go back! Why did you wake me up? My husband looked at me puzzled, and confused
“Some dream you had, ha?” chuckling, indeed it was, indeed it was!
A call to action to pursue purpose, self-discovery, and making an impact in the world around you.
