Angels Among Us

I had the worst nightmare yesterday and it is something that I would never forget.

I hardly had sleep the night before that because my adrenaline supply was so high.  I finally got to sleep at around 3 in the morning.  I woke up really late the next morning and thought of not reporting to work because of severe headache.  I had my usual morning ritual with my son and I went back to bed at around 10 to have more sleep.  After a few minutes and lying down, I fell asleep.

I don't know if I was in a trance, I know that I was asleep but I could hear Lance's and his Nanny's voice while they were playing in the living room.  Suddenly, I felt a cold air brushing on my feet and "seeing" a black mist entering my body and I became paralyzed.  I thought this is bad and that I have to wake up, if I was indeed still asleep.  I was trying to move but couldn't, it felt like the spirit is controlling my entire body.  I conditioned myself to be calm and think of something that would eventually end my ordeal.  I gathered all my strength and moved my arms and rolled my body on the floor... I was successful!  The next move was to reach for the door and try to make some noise... I failed.  I was gasping for air and screaming but no one seems to hear me.  But it was not the end, it should not be the end... I have to live for my child.  I prayed hard, all the possible prayers I could remember and the last that I was able to say before I felt a hard thump on my chest was "God, help me!".

I opened my eyes and felt Lance kissing me on my cheek.  I asked God, "Is he the one you sent to save me?  If he is the one, then You didn't just give me a son... You also gave me an angel."

I don't have to consult a dream interpreter to enlighten me about my dream.  No one is too big or small to be our savior.  We are all angels who are tasked to take care of one another.
