Happy by Christina

Loneliness is…
Being without my Happiness.
He was my everything —
And I miss him dearly.

So small when he first arrived
He could fit into the hood of a sweatshirt.
Yet he never got so big
That I couldn’t pick him up
And snuggle his furry little face next to my cheek.

My Happiness was a FIGHTER!
He had the strength and the courage
That I prayed to have every day.
Even when the odds were against him
He wouldn’t give up.

He was also a great teacher.
He taught me kindness and respect
Loyalty…friendship…fairness…and responsibility…
But the greatest of these…is love.

He taught me one of the greatest —
But one of the most difficult lessons of love there is…

If you love something set it free.

Loneliness is…
Being without my Happiness.
He was my everything —
But I know I’ll see him again…
