They say friends and family in our lives are like little stars in the black night of the sky of our lonely planet we call earth. Whenever one of these stars fade and die away, words can never describe the anguish and pain left by the big vaccume.
Ruth was more than just a dog to me. She was family. 14 years the little star that shone in the night of my life. Always there when i mugged through school resting near my feet as I studied through the night and later just being content being beside me through my adult life.
The perfect loyalty that put that smile on her face and the wag in her tail the night I came back from overseas. My only regret was that in my rush to unpack I did not hold her and hug her longer than I should have.
She passed away that night. After waiting 3 weeks for me to return and seeing me one last time.
To me she was just a dog but to her I was everything.
Forever missed,
| Ruth |
