(Fozzi joining us in”Walk for Prems”)
When I first saw the affirmation for today my heart sank as I felt my three furbabies. I had shared three of the most loving pets with my ex-partner for 7 years. Britches had passed away at the age of 19, I am grateful that I was able to love and cherish Maydies’s love for the 7 years that we were together. Charlotte was a kitten and she offered me her unconditional love for 2 years that she was a part of my life. Love that I am able to hold and cherish in my heart forever. For various circumstances they both remained in their home. There are times when I wake up and I can swear I have heard them or felt their presence around me. It comforts me and makes me smile and I know that they are being divinely looked after. I don’t dwell in the past rather I am honoured, blessed and grateful for the lesson they taught me and the love they so willingly gave. For now I have the furbabies that belongs to my sisters’ families to love and cherish Abbey, Fozzi, Jazzi & Felix.
The amount of love that I feel for animals is insurmountable and their unconditional love is such a gift. Pets in in one’s life can often make such a significant impact of healing and love that is overwhelming. For me right now I have a fish. His name is Romeo, it definitely is not the same as having a pet you can hold but I do take great delight in cleaning his fish tank each week and ensuring he has his own special place that he resides. I considered greatly getting a furbaby and went as far as almost adopting a beautiful pup that had been abandoned, but right now my lifestyle does not equate to the level of responsibility required to nurture and love a pet. It was one of the most challenging decisions that I have had to make, but I know in my heart that it also the right one for me. So for now I relish in the pets of my family and friends and am so grateful for the love that I have shared with my very own furbabies.
Animals do not have a voice so I pray and take action where possible to end their pointless suffering that as human we inhibit onto them. There are so many animal organisations that protect animals and it is important that we all take some action to ensure their safety and wellbeing as each small step makes a huge difference in their lives. My prayer is that all animals are treated with the dignity and respect that they deserve because we are all connected and we are all one. Being around my pets and feeling their unconditional love makes me feel so good! Blessed be and so it is. So it is done. Namaste.
With a sprinkle of fairy dust and may magic follow your day.
