Rural/Farm Life

Your note reminded me of a dream I had during my early college days. I spent the night above a mortuary having accepted the job of answering the phone if there was a body to be picked up. The place to stay didn't cost anything it was in exchange for answering the phone. If I would help going out to pick up bodies I would be paid for that time. In the dream I had that night I was in a church kneeling at an alter, there were candles burning in a rack off to my right. I was asking in my prayer "What is real?" And a voice finally answered "It's all real." That caused me to laugh and cry at the same time. I went out a side door of the church and sat on some steps in an alcove that led up to the door. Several of my friends came by on the sidewalk and asked if I was alright as I sat there laughing and crying. All I could do was thank them for their concern and tell them i was just fine. Waking up from that dream I felt I wasn't ready for that big a hit of religion, excused myself from the job and took the job out of town staying in a trailer helping a father in the mornings and the son in the afternoons milk their cows on a dairy. Thank you for the reply montanacowboy, I feel reunited with his spirit every time I think of him.
