What Cannot Be Done Alone

I had a dream the other night that I was in a kitchen, filled with everyone that I have ever been close to, and meant something very important to me. I was going to cook all of these loved ones a meal, and it was all that I wanted. Once I went to start, I did not have the adequate means, or food to do so. I was disappointed, devastated, scared, embarrassed. I asked a friend for help, once I found it absolutely necessary to, creating the polar opposite of everything that I intended. He could not assist me, though I begged, and everyone stood there waiting quietly, patiently, for we could not help each other at all.
