Hi everyone! Can you believe it has been five whole weeks
since I wrote last? I have sooo much to
do here at the Monastery that time just flies for me. Sister Rita Marie (my BFF) left for Rome
almost five weeks ago and I still miss her a lot. Sr. Leah Ann was gone the whole past week too
so Sr. K was left to take care of me. I
kind of became a “snuggle bug” with her since I missed my two friends so much! Us dogs have it easier than people because
when we are lonesome or miss someone we can usually find someone else to take
over, but for people it isn’t always that easy is it?
I kind of think that when
someone passes away or moves on in life people really grieve for that
loss. That brings me to my thought for
the day: How do you all cope with loss in life?
Sr. K says that it is important that people pray for everyone every day,
but mostly for the people in their lives who are suffering from being sick, who
are mourning a loved one or who are not happy in their own lives for some
reason.
I think us dogs can teach
people a few things about that. We live
in the moment and make the best of it. Yes, we get sad, but somehow can work
through it better. Just some advice from
me, Abby.
One more thing…this past week
Sr. K said that some very sad dogs came to the Animal Shelter here in
Norfolk. I feel really bad about that,
but I know that sooner or later they will be the best friends of someone who
will give them a wonderful home and they will forget all that bad stuff because
of what I said before…LIVE IN THE MOMENT!
Have a great springtime everyone!
Abby
