God's Gift (COMPLETED)

The Dream

I was deeply sorrowful for my exceptionally useless memory that i could not thank her for her kindness. And on the other side i was grieved for losing a great friend even before bidding her a farewell properly. But she had now taught me a lesson, she had taught me that my life was really precious and i had to use it wisely. I learned that I had to live a life worth living, being generous, kind and do things for the happiness of others.

I locked myself up in my room for three days, everyone inquired about why was i not communicating with anyone, my neighbors complained why i was making so much of noise and my parents were extremely perturbed about me but all i cared about was that my friend had left me....when i got out of my room, my eyes were swollen and i had grown pale and weak. We had to visit the doctor as my mom was horrified at the sight of me. I had completely forgotten about my return after a whole lot of years and i was kidnapped by a dangerous gang, I had begged, and all of it. All i could remember was Caroline. All the people at the hospital stared at my ruddy face and that was truly irritating, but then i started to blend in and begin my daily routine, my school. My friends were happy to see me but no one seemed as sincere as her, no one as cheerful, no one as lovely, no on could brighten up my day like Caroline. My first day at school was an exhausting one as skipping two grades was not an easy job and I was already a month late at my new class. I was thankful that i didn't have to attend the previous classes and lack behind my age but even at school i could not think of anything except of Caroline. All the lectures bounced off my head, and my friends who would never stop babbling were like mute impressionists who had their mouths always moving but i couldn't hear. 

So i slept immediately after changing into my casual attire without having lunch, my stomach screamed of hunger but i was used to this and i could bear although my fridge was full of dainties now but i didn't wish to eat. I started dreaming.

I dreamed of Caroline, her ghost was crying in my dream.

I had never seen Caroline cry ever but in my dream she did and said, "Helen, I am in despair." I stood just in front of her and we were in a place all white. I sat down where i stood and asked her why. She replied, "Helen, whatever i say today, you have to listen with great concentration.

Helen, this life is a treasure given to us and while we're here we need to be happy. I understand you are grieved because of my death but life and death is all nature's work. We don't control all of this, you make me realize that you loved me with all your heart and are grieved but you cannot stay like this all your life! You have to move on. My death was what had to happen and now i am here to tell you that you are, were and will be my best friend and i cannot stand you wasting your life crying. You should know that i am still alive in your heart and you live with me, there is no need to be sad because sadness is the second word for wasting your life. You have to be happy and if you really love me that much, I will advice you to do works of kindness, be a reason for some one's happiness someone's smile, some one's laughter and that can only happen when you be happy yourself like i was despite of my cancer, this will specifically be the best way to miss me, so i take my departure now, my time for you is ending and what i would last want to say is that you meant a lot to me, i am sorry i had hidden my illness from you but your life was all too painful to add more pain to it so i added happiness and i am happy  for that. Now you must know that life is not worth wasting but it is to be lived, to be happy, to sing, dance, laugh and give happiness... Forever yours..BYE!!!"

She stood up and started to walk the other way without looking behind. I called out, "Carol!" she looked back to me smiling, "Thank you! And bye... You are my best friend," I said. She smiled again and went her way slightly turning to light and vanishing away like a star in the clouds. I woke up with a smile on my face. I was guilty free now, I had thanked my dear friend. I was delighted, and my life took a new start. 

I immediately knew what i had to do now.
