Tamijo was in my dream last night!
I had a dream last night that I/some woman stopped her car on a lane of the interstate and put her baby, which was in a plastic bag, in front of it while she ..did something.. like.. eat some fruit.. I think..
then suddenly! a blue van rear-ends her, killing the baby and spilling a picnic kind of thing over the street.
when I was all upset about it (we were same person but it wasn't my baby..it was hers.. and Tamijo consoled us separately) tami told me "neko! it was NOTHING!"... it made me think.. what are babies anyway.. but it didnt really make me feel better. only in a strange philosophy way.
later, tami called the woman to make her feel better
"hello?"
Tami asks me what her name is.
"Emily. I want you to cut a slice of cake for your baby because she's going to need it on her journey to heaven. and have a piece for yourself to celebrate. bye!"
I was amazed and mostly speechless. I told tami that that was THE BEST thing to ever say to someone whose baby was just killed.
