To Love Deeply Is To Grieve Deeply
I’ve often heard “why do we have pets, it hurts so much” and yes, it does hurt - but that is because we love them with all our hearts and care for them and ensure they have all they need to flourish - not only with food, or shelter - but companionship, laughter, cuddles, our time really and quality time at that.
We take these animals into our home and they become part of the family and cherished and while the hurting feels like your heart is ripped in two - one day it will get better - it may be in a week, it may months away, but there is a day you will remember your lost one and smile and remember the ‘good’ bits, but there are also days you will remember and cry and again, that is because you have a heart and you allowed yourself to love, the day we loose a baby and it doesn‘t hurt - that is the day we stop - so keep feeling as it shows you have a heart.
