Disturbing Phone Call

Yesterday I got a really disturbing phone call from my brothers wife. She asked me "Are you ok Lora?" and of course I said that I was doing just fine, WHY? She went on to tell me that she had a dream about me and it's been bothering her. The dream seemed so real and that she's so "unsettled" by it.

So I open my big mouth and ask her "What was it about". I shouldn't have asked!!! She tell me that she's sure that it's something that I wouldn't want to hear. It's now got me really intrigued on what it could be and tell her "just tell me already".

"You weren't feeling well and hadn't been sleeping well lately so you laid down to get some sleep and well, you died in your sleep."

So, I've been fighting a migraine all week.
I haven't been sleeping a whole lot lately.
Should I not go to sleep?

Do you believe in dreams? Do you think I should be afraid to go to sleep? Should she of even called and told me about that dream?

When I got off the phone from her I was a little disturbed with random thoughts and a little bit of panic running through my veins. What if I did die? I mean, I know that we all die but what if it happens SOON? Am I living my life in such a way that I will make it to the celestial kingdom? Do my kids know what they mean to me? Does my husband know that I love him with every fiber of my being and that I wouldn't want to be with anyone else in this world? Is my house in order? Am I doing all that has been asked of me by my Heavenly Father? Reading? Praying? Service? Calling?

I don't want to give what she said too much weight to the point of me walking on eggshells or causing me not to sleep because I'm afraid.......BUT!!!

For tonight, I'm going to bed...earlier than I usually do. I'll be in bed by 12am. :-) If I should fall asleep and never wake again..........Know That I LOVE You ALL.

Okay that is horrible!!! You know what I don't really believe in dreams :) I have dreamed so many times that my parents die. It hasn't happened. So I wouldn't worry about it! I also dreamed that I was kidnapped as a child, been murdered, died myself......Once in a while a beleive in a dream but most of the time it's just funny!
