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 [...]

But what I fear is false.
We are not alone.
Our love lives on.
