It's been almost two years since I lost two of my dogs in RL...but recently a new wave of grief has taken a hold of me. I have no idea why...but I am struggling so much to get over this wall.
I believe in hope though...I am not a religious person, but I do believe there is a kind of Heaven.
I came to hear of something called 'The Rainbow Bridge'. It is a most wonderful poem, and is based off Norse Mythology.
Rainbow Bridge Pet Loss Poem
After reading, I became engrossed with its origin and meaning. I sincerely believe in such a place.
This sim is just beautiful, it really does live up to its name. Peaceful and serene.
I vow to visit each day, as there is no-where for me to go in RL for my boys...it may be virtual, but it is something, ne?
Atleast I know there is somewhere I can go, a place that's mine, to silently remember the good times in life that we shared.
I'm not asking for your support, but it is welcome. I'm simply sharing this because I know there are people with hearts out there...if you stumble across this blog post, I hope you are one of them...one that will understand why we grieve so much for our lost 'furbabies'. Because that's what they are...the bonds we share are as close to those we share with our own species.
I thank you for taking the time to read all of this if you did. Because a lot of you will not, and only probably read this last sentence.
We will cross that Rainbow Bridge together, someday.
Very touching, again truly sorry for your loss, even that last picture of you crying was almost like the real thing and me feel sad. I truly hope you are able to get through this michi, you can always talk to me as well. You have lots of good friends and even family to talk to, don't forget that.
ReplyDeleteI do know and remember, it is very hard to talk about sometimes but I have to really thank you for being there for me.
DeleteThank you so so so much my dear friend <33
you're most welcome, Michi and any time.
DeleteI really hope you will feel better soon. It seems we think the same way about religion - I'm not really religious either, but I do believe in some kind of Heaven. I don't know about you, but I also believe in 'something' that leads us through our lives. Like a God... although not the God of a certain religion. In hard times I pray as well, and it gives me hope, the strength to believe and to hold on. Just the thought of 'I will feel better' actually makes you feel a bit better, right? And I do believe you will feel better soon. :)
ReplyDeleteI really understand and are taking in what you are saying. I do believe that something leads us through our lives, and when a new path is to be taken, an unseen door opens for us. Perhaps Angels do exist, but to me they would be an animal :) or a loved one we were extremely close to that we lost. A guardian of some kind.
DeleteThank you so much for your comment, you've made me feel better. <33
I'm glad I have made you feel a bit better. I also believe animals and loved ones could be Angels who help us when we struggle.
DeleteSometimes I wish people could just accept each others' beliefs... it would stop so many wars and spare so many souls. But anyway, I am sure your Angels are by your side right now. I believe they're always near, but they will get even closer when you need it the most. :)
