One Year Later...I Miss You I Love You




...the yearning to be near you I do what I have
to do, but, I have the sense to recognize
that I don't know how to let you go.
I don't know how to let you go ~Sarah McLachlan

...If all of the strength and all of the courage
come and lift me from this place
I know I could love you much better than this
full of grace, full of grace my love ~Sarah McLachlan

O divine master grant that I may not so much
to seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood
as to understand;
To be loved as to love.
For it is giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned.
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
~Prayer of Saint Francis

We know that the sadness never really leaves the heart... yet, today of all days, as we celebrate peace together with all of our wonderful cat friends... we wish you peace and joy from the memories of your much loved Tookie. And know she too, is at peace.

I certainly understand. I've lost loved ones, both human and furry, and still feel the loss just as much today as the day they left. Hugs from me and purrrrrrs from all 5 kitties!

MISS PEACH ~(^.^)~ said...

My beloved sweet friend Lorianna! How gently I come to your side today...can you feel me next to you with my peachy furs rubbing against your checks?
To love is a privilege many have...
To love deeply forever is a privilege many never find.
Your adoring Miss Peach and Karla

Oh Lorianna, what sweet memories. I know you miss Tookie so much. It is so hard, but never forget what a wonderful kitty you had and gave a good home to. Cody, Cricket and Billie are so lucky to have a mom like you.
I will post something about my sister Taffy again soon, as a remembrance......something about a purple sweater....

Big big hug to you. I lost the first cat in my family before, actually it's my sister Pamilla's classmate's cat in her college time. And that cat stay in our home only a year, and after 1 year, that cat has been taken back to her classmates.
And another year after, the cat went to the rainbow bridge because had a cold. Even only 1 year, makes me really sad.

We may think the lost was that year, but the lost is real true just we only could place something else to fill that hole. That hold still there, just having another things in there. The lost always there.

I love the words you memory for Tookie. Thank you for your kindness sharing to us.
And thank you for being with me seeing the growing of Adan and Lego. It's so nice our life have someone to share with. I am very happy I have a good far away friend like you.
And I am very honored could know your feeling~~

Prayind and purring, I believe Tookie is feeling and sensing about your miss.

Best Regards
Michico
