"I'm afraid, grandfather"
"Hush child, I am beside you. What is the matter my boy?"
"Wolves haunt my dreams, they frighten me"
"The moon shines down bringing peace to the land, the wolves call to it, hailing it. In the dark we oft see things not there. Your blue shirt, the one you favor above all others, in the night might seem as a ghost, dark and sinister…"
"What does that have to do with anything, grandfather?"
"The wolf's howl comes to remind you that it is darkest before dawn, child. Always remember that! As frightening as it might get, as hard as it might seem, the shadows are sometimes just in your head. At those times, dear grandchild, look for the wolf in you; find the courage to hail the moon that shall show you the path, the truth…"
"I don't understand grandfather, I don't…"
"Hush child, there is love here – you are safe, you are wanted, always, for ever!"
A place of safety- remember that...

That's just beautiful. "There is love here - you are safe - you are wanted, always, forever"
To be wanted, to feel safe......we all want that. This piece of writing feels like strong, warm arms. Thank you, Gil. I needed a hug tonight, badly.
