Have you cried all your tears my dear sweet girl?

How convenient is it that I was wearing a dream catcher when I had one of the weirdest dreams I've ever had before? In my dream I was looking back on flashes of my life and seeing all these important things that I usually over look. I saw my mother's hands and everything they've done for me, they way they could comfort me so easily with just the slightest touch and the way that they could clean up any mess that's been created. I saw my dads cheek and the way he used to always rub it against mine when I was little because he knew it tickled me. I saw Ben's huge grin and the way it could always make my smile come out too. I heard the sound of Drake's laughter mixed with Mike's. I heard Terance singing his song and Dixon reading Walt Whitman. I could feel my puppy's ears, feel the softness and feel the comfort he brings to me. I saw my first kiss. I saw glitter and roses. I saw myself sitting under a tree with Eric and felt that same inspiration. I remembered the feeling of my first concert. I remembered Triton holding me while I cried. I remembered the one and only time Nik told me I was beautiful. I remembered my grandma walking me to elementary every day. I remembered my grandpa sleeping in his recliner. I remembered the conversation me and my mom had on the way to South Towne. I remembered Taya coming to my school and taking me out of physics. I remembered every love I've ever felt. I saw all these things that mattered that I'd forgotten about. In a way, I imagine that's what happens right before you die. You see and feel things that made you who you were, that formed your life into the movie you want to remember.
