I lost a close friend to cancer a few years ago. Even though we knew it was coming, when he passed, it was still a shock. Feeling the loss of someone who was as close as a brother was emotionally painful. I missed our talks, the camaraderie felt when we were reenacting the Fur Trade era (mountain men). I had dreams of my friend for quite a long time after he went to the big rendezvous in the sky. He was still alive in those dreams. We could still talk in those dreams & pass the jug of "apple pie" when sitting around the fire in his Tepee. The dreams faded eventually but I still miss my friend. A5, you have my sincerest condolences. If you have dreams of 'Dawg, I hope they are fun dreams about the things you liked to do together. Prayers to you & 'Dawg's family...
I refuse to be victimized by notions of virtuous behavior.
