Love = Loss = Love
Snowball 1996-2009
I lost my kitty cat yesterday.
She was nearly 13 and I had forgotten how hard it is to lose a pet. I have cried, even whaled over losing her. I loved her deeply. As I age something becomes ever so clear. If a person loves deeply, they hurt deeply. Loss is gut-wrenching, be it over a person or a pet. We have relationships with our pets. They become our family.
Easter in my house and my heart is about Love. A Love so great and so perfect that it could only be Divine. When I consider the losses in my life and how devastated they have left me, I am comforted and humbled by a God whom I believe so deeply loves all He created that he sacrificed His only Son to prove it. An act I would not be willing to do for anyone, anytime. No matter how many losses I experience on this earth, none will compare to His loss.
Happy Easter everyone. Halleluiah!

Aw! So cute! Makes me want to go snuggle my kitties!
I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you find comfort in celebrating this upcoming holiday.
I'll be praying for you.
Thank you, SunShine. I not only appreciate your prayers, I really need them. It's been a sad week. Looking forward to my sons coming home and celebrating Easter with me. Hope yours is special, as well.
Maureen, yes, snuggle up!!
I'm so sorry, Lisa! What a sweetheart, too. It always strikes me just how much the little furballs come to mean to us.
