“Ah!” The wind struck so swiftly that before I could react, it sliced my palm, causing blood to flow immediately.

As my blood dripped onto the box, I reached for a tissue to clean it, but to my astonishment, the box clicked open, releasing a brilliant white Light.
I had to shield my eyes from the intense brightness.

“Debra, I’ve been waiting for you.

It was a kind, strong voice, filled with the love I recognized so well.
“How have you been all these years?”

Night had fallen.
The room’s light was on, casting a warm yellow glow.
In that light, I saw the figure I had longed for every day and night.
There she was, serene and smiling as if she had never left.
Her amber eyes met mine with a gentle gaze.
It was my mother, standing right there, alive and well.
The shock was overwhelming, making my heart race and my breath quicken.
I was in disbelief and pinched myself to confirm reality.
The pain confirmed this wasn’t a dream.
Tears welled up in my eyes, and I was shaking.
I wanted to speak but words failed me.
I could only look at her and stammer, “Mom, is that you?”
I wondered if my longing had conjured up an illusion.
I extended a shaky hand to touch her face, seeking the warmth of her skin, but fear held me back.
What if she vanished upon contact? So, I retracted my hand quietly.
Seeing my confusion, my mother reassured me, “Debra, it’s really me.
I’m here.

Her familiar, soothing voice nearly brought me to tears.
The presence I felt was undeniably real.
