Dreaming Amongst the Stars

               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.
