Seeing a great dark forest as the sun is setting. It’s getting darker and darker as the night moves on. I can no longer see anything other than the stars in the sky and the occasional starlight reflected off of various bodies of water scattered throughout the darkness.
When I begin to think that there is nothing out there I begin to see the occasional flicker of an orange light deep within the darkness of the woods. Moving closer to this flickering light I begin to discern that this is the light of a small fire. Moving closer still I can see that there are three people sitting by this fire in the dark.
I find myself moving into a small clearing now with the fire between myself and the others. Being this close I recognize two of the people as my Cherie and her friend Lana. Between them is a man and he has his arms around each of them, It’s obvious that he is a good friend of theirs but I’m not sure that I recognize him. The three of them are in deep conversation with each other and don’t realize that I am there, on the other side of the fire, watching them.
The conversation stops for a while and the man in the middle looks up over the fire and directly into my eyes. In that instant I recognize Him and He smiles at me. He speaks to me directly and says quietly,
“These two are my favorites now, and I love them”
When He speaks these words He hugs them tightly and kisses each on the forehead. When this is done He disappears into the night. Leaving myself and them with a peace and calm, deep in the dark forest. With only the stars shining above and the fire crackling below.
