Enlightened
For a few years, before my best friend passed away, I daily walked his Chihuahua and his Pomeruahua (Chihuaranian?) at the courthouse square. I learned many things from pets, but the one thing that I like to remind myself of: Animals always start each moment fresh. No holding on to recent or distant past, and no maneuvering to control the future. They are are always happy in the now moment. Also, I worked for four years at a girls' residential treatment center, for court-ordered extreme high risk girls; they have a horse program. The girls would be in a full spectrum of moods and behaviors, but the horses were always in a good mood. Without having the need for staff to point it out to them, the girls learned that the horses never yelled out any excuses to be in a bad mood.
I am saddened that you and her will be separated for a while. In the fullness of time, God will join you and her in perfect union.
Thanks to all for the support and kind thoughts. Much love from Rene and Michelle and Lucy my pretty girl.
