Experience description:

Two weeks before my best friend/lover died, two Doves made a nest in one of my hanging balcony planters just two feet from my front door. Very unusual place to build nest. I have many photos. Soon after the mama dove laid two eggs. Rene and I were quickly enchanted by these lovely birds because, well, doves are mates for life.

He indicated to me through hand gesture that there was no room for me. It wasn't my time. I was to return home. I was very very sad in my dream. Days after that dream, during the darkest days of my initial grief when I was truly suicidal, I understood what his true meaning in that dream.
