My husband told me that last night he had a dream about our dog that passed away. Then when I took my aunt to lunch, she told me a story about how she would interact with our dog in the morning. She told me how smart she believed the dog was.
I felt like her spirit hung all around me today as the people I lived with shared their thoughts with me. One of the most difficult parts of the story for me is wondering if I let her go too soon. When I have a day like today, I hope to realize that she rests in peace. She no longer spends her day in pain. I also hope and really want to believe that in some way a part of her exists in all of the people who loved her. She truly was one of God’s creatures and even in death, she continues to teach me about love.
My faith saved me. May God’s peace reside in all of our hearts.
