A-Z Challenge: Quotes

Busted! I’m a quotes junkie, yes I admit it. I can read them for hours. They help me understand myself better, often times they express thoughts and feelings, I can’t manage to put into words myself. And, quotes can provide “food for thought” or be a comfort as well.
Below, I am sharing a few favorites….

“I am lonely, yet not everybody will do. I don’t know why, some people fill the gaps and others emphasize my loneliness. In reality those who satisfy me are those who simply allow me to live with my ”idea of them.” – Anaïs Nin

“No matter how little money and how few possessions you own, having a dog makes you rich.”
– Louis Sabin

“Where we love is home – home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts.”
– Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.

“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything.” – Plato

A-Z Challenge: Dog

“The journey of life is sweeter when traveled with a dog.” – Bridget Willoughby

It has been one and a half years now, without a dog by my side, without Aubree. I miss her every day and truly needed this period of time to accept, that I won’t see her again for quite a while. Our connection, sweet memories and photo books make her loss bearable now. There will always be teary-eyed moments, no matter how much longer I wait.
Quietly, thoughts of welcoming another furry friend into my heart and home are sneaking into the forefront of my mind. There’s so much missing from your life, once you’ve gotten to know the “happy wagging tail welcome”, the cold-nosed “come-play-with-me” nudge, or the sweet cuddle sessions. I know, that I’m repeating myself, but it can’t be mentioned enough, how much love these little sweethearts are willing to give, how well they get to know us, and always feel what it is we need. They give back so much and enrich our lives in abundance, every single day. I miss all of that, a lot. I know, that Aubree is ready to guide me towards a little fur kiddo, who’s waiting for me. I trust her, that the time is right to have “my heart stolen” once again, and to give love, care, safety and happiness to another well deserving little sweetheart 🐾💓
