A few nights ago I lay in bed, sleepy but excited about the prospect of traveling again, meeting new people, of discovery and exploration. Eventually I calmed down enough to slip once again into the land of dreams. I found myself in one of my favorite places - New York City. I was somewhere in the mid 50s, walking along a street lined with large vintage apartment buildings. It was a warm summer night, and fireworks were lighting up the sky. I stood on the sidewalk, watching the bright colors exploding, and smiled, thinking how well their dazzling brilliance matched my current mood. I had no idea of the occasion requiring the fireworks display and didn't care. I simply enjoyed the show. Suddenly I felt I was not alone. I turned and there was Vincent, hands in his pockets, eyes trained on the sky, mesmerized by the merry dance of the fireworks. I tapped him lightly on the shoulder. 'Good evening, Vincent, come to celebrate?'He dragged his luminous eyes away from the sky and smiled. 'I have indeed,' he replied. 'I am here to celebrate you.' 'Me? What so particularly wonderful have I done to merit this?' I asked. Vincent took both of my hands in his and swung me around in a circle. He caught me so off-guard I nearly fell off the curb, but managed to stay upright. 'Enough!' I finally shouted. 'I'm getting dizzy!' He stopped twirling and propped me up against his shoulder. 'What do you think?' he demanded. 'You said yes! At last, you have cast off a bit of fear and seized the chance to do something new, something challenging. It deserves celebrating!' ~ excerpt copyright 2014 RC deWinter
