I had a dream about talking to Damien through WoW.

This is actually the second time I have ever had a dream like this… the first one was years ago, before he passed away.

I really can’t remember the details (of this latest one) now, you know how elusive dreams can be… but basically we were chatting and he seemed as happy and carefree as ever. The strange thing was that I knew it was a dream (or at least strongly suspected it) and I asked him whether or not it might be true that every time I talked to him in a dream through WoW (which thus far has been the only way I’ve talked to Damien in dreams, so only these two times)… that I was actually talking to him in heaven…

Devastatingly enough (just to prove that I may have been somewhat lucid but continued to have zero control of where the dream was going — lloyd :P ), I got disconnected from WoW before he could respond to my critical question and try as I might, couldn’t get back on to the same realm, though a couple other servers seemed to still work. I was in sheer panic, desperately trying to log back in before he would inevitably vanish into the ether again, but I was never able to sign back in…

I don’t know. I don’t even know if I believe in heaven. Or Heaven, whatever. Generally I tend towards the athiest side of agnosticism. But I guess knowing people like Damien makes you want to believe that the light at the end of the tunnel is not just that.
