As I slipped away last night, I had the most peculiar dream. There was a woman in my life who I never really looked at. She is beautiful in her own way but She was just there to me, just another person. In my dream she taught me something that I will never forget. What she taught me was different, I have no words for it. It was a feeling, an appreciation. It was a compassion for the individual creation of life. I felt different. I did not love this woman.
In my dream we had met up while on holiday at a hotel near a beach. Like every dream I ever had the day was gloomy and going into night. We drank spirits together and talked. We became attracted to each other. We made love that night. In my dream, a couple months had passed, she was pregnant. I returned to the hotel to find her. She broke the news to me. I was in the middle of my life, girlfriend, college, work. Then, she told me "We are having a baby together". The way I felt was unexplainable. I didn't love her, I didn't want her, she had nothing for me. But, there was one thing that i did love. That was our child being bared in her womb.
I had created life, beautiful life. I never knew this unborn child or his or her's mother but I loved it. The simplistically of it was magnificent. I loved for no other reason than the child just being in existence.
One day, I very much hope to become a father. I hope to bring life into this world. I hope to see my child smile for the first time, I hope to be there for every moment of his or her's life good or bad. Ready or not, I know I will love my child always and forever, even before they ever come into existence. Even whenthey will be nothing but a mere thought among the stars, I will love you.
