You'll Come For Me

In 1989 there was a terrible earthquake in Armenia that killed over 30,000 people in four minutes.
A distraught father went in frantic search of his son.
He reached his son's school only to find that it had been reduced to a pile of rubble.
But he was driven by his promise to his son, "No matter what, I'll always be there for you!"
He visualized the corner where his son's classroom would be, rushed there, and started to dig through the debris brick by brick.

Others came on the scene--the fire chief, then the police--warning him of fires and explosions, and urging him to leave the search to the emergency crews.
But he tenaciously carried on digging.
Night came and went, and then, in the 38th hour of digging, he thought he heard his son's voice.
"Armand!"
he called out.
Then he heard, "Dad?!?
It's me, Dad!
I told the other kids not to worry.
I told 'em that if you were alive, you'd save me and when you saved me, they'd be saved. ...

"There are 14 of us left out of 33.
... When the building collapsed, it made a wedge, like a triangle, and it saved us."

"Come on out, boy!"

"No, Dad!
Let the other kids out first, 'cause I know you'll get me!
No matter what, I know you'll be there for me!"

I'll be watching the leaves.
Enjoy the day!

The Dream

I was with a group of rebel runaways. We'd set up camp in the middle of a red rocks area, off a main road, off a main camping area where none of the officials of the government could find us and try and control our powers. But, all of a sudden our phones started acting weird. The cameras on them would swivel to face us, and our hands would seize up, our picture showing in the phones. The gov had hacked our phones to try and find us. I managed to force my phone face down, releasing me before it got a good picture of me. The head guy in charge a cute guy we referred to as Leader told us to take the cameras out of our phones. It was an easy thing to do they just popped out. But it depressed me as I'd been taking a lot of pictures on our trip and I wanted to be able to take more. Still. We were safe again....until we ended up throwing a party and a bunch of people who weren't part of our cause showed up...and nothing was done with their phones to keep the gov from hacking them...and so..we were under threat. I was trying to quickly pack the essentials I would need and wanted for our cross country journey we were going to undertake when....

The unholy tones of daylight pulled me away....
and I became myself again. :)
