Such he...Oh Maria, I'm so very sorry about CC. Such heartache when we lose our beautiful, beloved animals. Please know that my heart goes out to you in sincere sympathy for your loss. He certainly was a beautiful horse, and I'm certain he'll be missed. Sometimes when these things happen, the kindest thing we can do for them, is to know when to let them go. I have been in that situation 4 times now with horses that I have loved. Each decision was heartwrenching. It never gets easier. But know in your heart that they don't look at life the way we do. They don't make plans. They just live in the here and the now. Sometimes I think we could learn a whole lot by living our lives a little more like they do...but I guess you're already thinking along those lines. I would like to think that we could change, but I'm just not sure.

There are no boundaries to grief, I'm afraid, but I hope you are finding some light at the end of the dark tunnel of sorrow.Deejbrownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08143307437996045353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119701944773614275.post-65519928487800299202010-03-21T17:04:48.221-04:002010-03-21T17:04:48.221-04:00i'm so sorry for your loss and i went through ...i'm so sorry for your loss and i went through some of the same questions almost 3 years ago. all the things that irritate us, all the things that we think are important - change with the perspective once you experience the death of someone (even a beloved pet) close to you.Charhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03851293154388793520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119701944773614275.post-32863827235832225412010-03-21T17:04:39.053-04:002010-03-21T17:04:39.053-04:00Maria, I am so sorry for your loss. I think these ...Maria, I am so sorry for your loss. I think these things always motivate us in a forward direction. What i mean is, my relationship with my animals now is based off the relationships I have had in the past too. I try and make every relationship as meaningful as possible (to both me and them). But the more we suffer a loss, the more we learn to cherish not just what we have, but what we may have in the future. Those memories of C C are now biologically imprinted. As you live, so do they. I'm not saying this in an attempt to ease your pain. I know nothing can. This comment is just my tiny attempt at a candle for you and C C. with light, jjtruehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04738121573184580786noreply@blogger.com
