It Was A Dream

        Help! Help!

       I was calling for help. No, I was begging for help to be exact. I was really begging for help. I am now crying out of desperation. I know I said exactly their names. I almost called everyone I knew and use the energy I have left shouting trying to be heard. But what’s going on? I can’t understand. Why it seems they can’t hear me?

        My mind told me that I should have to survive. Yes, I really want to survive. I will do anything on my power to escape from this mess.  Then I remembered all the persons who need and love me. But even how hard I tried, still I am surrounded by water. I am floating in a vast ocean.  All that I can see is water and no glimpse of an island. I am now drowning. I am losing my energy and I know it is going to happen. I am struggling and gasping for air as I am sinking.

       Suddenly I noticed myself uttering a prayer. Asking for repentance and forgives on the things I have done wrong for my family and friends. Although I know it’s late and I know that they can’t hear it but I believe this is the least I can do. But given a chance I will do it personally.

      Then at last, out of a sudden I heard someone calling me. I never forgot that feeling of relieved. It is clear that someone really notice me now. Help is coming my way. But I then realize he’s not just calling be but also rocking me a bit, then faster and faster, till I woke up.

       Thanks God it was just a dream.  I am only dreaming. What really a bad nightmare!

     Then I realized that it might be an omen. God gave me a second chance to straighten my ways and show my love and affection for my family and friends. This is an awakening for me that life really is short that I must take advantage out of it. While were still here we should always give our best in everything.

      And the most important of all is to remember our Lord as our savior. He is the only one we can count on in term of adversaries.
