I'm going to get another dog someday. Maybe sooner, maybe later.
I'm going to tell them all the stories of the dogs that came before them.
I'm going to tell them about Peanut, who didn't get his name from me, but it fit anyway. How sweet he was, & how he passed over the Rainbow Bridge in peace & without pain, after 16 wonderful years.
& whoever my next dog is, they won't have to compete with the dogs before them in the least.
Every dog is their own spirit. I'll tell them stories of old dogs long gone, & we'll write new stories of our own.
It’s been a year & I just can’t.
@Impious_Jade When I was a kid I used to read to my dog. I still believe she was listening.
@dauphin87 I love that. I'm sure she was listening, even if she didn't understand the words.
That's not funny at all to me. That's real.
The question I always ask myself is if I'm coming here to share my pain, or to spread my pain.
There's a difference, I've found.
@White_Rabbit Truth. There's wisdom in't. Thank you.
I'm going to tell them about Ophelia, the Late Great Wonder Wiener. I'll tell them about how puissant & spirited she was, how she lasted for 17 years & met Death with a ferocious peace.
