Sable,
It’s been two years now since your passing and I still miss you immensely. In death, as in life, you have taught me so much girl.
These past two years I have come to realize that you were never really mine to own. God sent you to me as a teacher to instill a better understanding of myself and of life in general. This borrowed time I will treasure the remaining days of my life.
I have changed, dear Sable. I am no longer the human that you knew. But you already know that, don’t you?
Would have, could have and should have flood my thoughts daily. Unlike with many people, they do not reflect my thoughts of the past though, they gauge and guide my actions of the present.
I have visited this site almost daily since your passing. Initially it helped with the grieving by reading through the memorials and tributes posted by others. After a short while I took comfort in helping others get through the initial stages of their grieving. It has now become somewhat of a therapy session for me. I am so grateful that I stumbled upon In Memory Of Pets and I am equally grateful to have
had a teacher such as you.
Today I am saddened at the remembrance of your passing, but I am happy that life has come full circle. Noah is truly a blessing and reminds me so much of you. Spot has taken kindly to him. I credit Noah in saving Spot’s life for I do believe that he would have grieved himself to death over you. Ultimately, I know that you had a hand in working things out.
Life is good Sable and I have found a sense of peace now. No longer clouded by intense pain and regret I can see a bright future. A future without, but in memory and in honor of you –
the greatest dog I’ve ever known.
You are my inspiration girl,
