When we lose a pet it hurts. Awfully. There seems to be no room for anything besides pain.
Besides sadness.
Besides wishing it were different.
We cannot seem to find the emotions that are triggered by the happy memories. They are not there yet.
Or at least it seems that way.
They are there. They are underneath that grief. They [...]
Each dog is so very special. They are special in two ways. One, the obvious, they being the wonderful, loving creatures they naturally are. But, also, the love that they create between themselves and their humans. That love is so special and unique. I am present to that love every time I get honored to [...]
I feel it has been so long since I last posted. About 2 weeks, I think. It is amazing how time can escape us. It can just slip away, almost unnoticed. It is already into February. I do not know what happened to January.
This is not how to live. Unnoticing. Catching up. Getting ahead. Later. [...]
Whether a pet dies or there is a major earthquake with many people dying there is loss and pain.

Here is the first in a series of videos to help you find peace after the death of your pet. I hope I can add some comfort to what you are going through right now. (It will allow you to get to know me a little bit better, as well.)
Take care and lots of love,

This is an endearing and beautiful short by Wojtek Wawszczyk. It is beautiful and uplifting. It can release a good cry with it’s love:
Each year we get a chance to start over. Actually, each moment is a chance to start over, but we, as humans, like the symbolic nature of the new year.
The new year is a wonderful thing. What are you going to take on? What are you going to wish for? What are you going to [...]
I wish everyone peace.

Happiness.
Healing.
Forgiveness.
Strength.
Closure.
New openings.
Joy.
Joy.
Joy.
I love all of you!
Merry Christmas,
Alexandra
Christmas trees.
Ho ho ho’s and happy songs.
Family and hearth.
Candles, Menorahs, and twinkling lights.
You can still find joy in these when you are suffering the grief of a lost pet. We have so many emotions. They do not take turns. More than one can exist in the same moment. You can be walking in the mall [...]
It can be a very difficult time of year without your pet. There may be an empty space, a lack of wholeness, a hyper-awareness of what is missing. But it doesn’t have to be.
There is a bittersweet joy in sorrow. The memories of the wonderful times shared. Those memories can come bubbling up when we [...]
