Dreaming Awakening
10 years ago I was compelled to write the following story after a mystical experience, something I believe what all religions are written about… Having recently reread this story, and with it being a foggy morning (part 10) and Groundhog’s Day (part 3), I feel compelled to re-share this writing.
