Little Red has some wonderful traits and is loved my many (me most of all!). We met in 1991 and became fast friends spending too much time together laughing and loving the other's company for it to ever be forgotten. A testament to that is we have reconnected as of 2021. I am grateful to have her in my life. I wake up every morning knowing she will put a smile on my face by the day's end. But enough of this. Little Red is tired and needs to sleep.

There have been good times, and there are memories of those, but too much anguish. In this dream, though, she realizes they are a pain and sorrow to not just her...but to everyone. In this dream she is a psychologist and her mother and sister have come to seek her counsel. In this dream she tells them what they need to do to improve their lives. She tells them to (link-goto: "love themselves", "beginning") as she has learned to love herself without them. She gives them what they could never give her and in this way, knows she needs them no more. She can only add to their lives, they can no longer take away from hers.

She has fond memories of friendships that were shortlived as well as those, like Sue, that have lasted the ages. Still in her dream, she meets the best of her friends in years to come. She wakes reminded that restarting and reseting her social life is something every new day offers.

I wake up knowing every day that I live with a woman who loves every moment with me. I feel her fight for time with me and smile from her heart whenver we are together. I love watching her speak. She is adorable whenever she emotes. Angry, sad, excited, happy, disappointed, I love it all. I love being her go to and want to spend all my days helper her enjoy all of hers.
