I also remember a previously told story about my friend's mini poodle, who believe it or not squeezed under the fence in the backyard and ran over to the road where he was hit by a bus. He would go on the sidewalk chasing after the hot air balloon up in the sky. I'm sorry for Lucky as I was for Jamaie, don't have the right spellings, french word. I am sorry too that under the distraught conditions it would be unlikely that anything could have saved him. Hope Lucky's soul rests in peace. Hope you and your three other souls live in peace.

Thanks Jan, I do believe in life as a soul. As some one put it so nicely on this forum we are a soul having a physical appearance. And we shed the skin and though we can not see, because we believe what the eyes see.

Hi Shelley, I understand it is so frustrating when you want to do something positive and it is not taken in the right spirit. I hope you keep this positive energy and every one else will get charged to do as well. Thanks, Kavish

ShanN, Reading your story I had to take a double take and waded whether and how I can respond. You indeed are brave to acknowledge what has been so wrong in the past. I think it is positivism and hope in you which is asking you to move forward from the past. You are strong and you will prevail. Your heart is strong now and will be stronger and pour forth. For me all negativity was blocking in my mind and now I have tried to let my heart overpower the mind by listening to my heart for direction. Thanks, Kavish

Hi Meceebe, I was also scared once. I wanted to make others feel good and tried my best to please them but ultimately they blew my trust by admonishing me for not listening to them. I withdrew and was depressed over it for a long time. But I had a friend who would make me feel better and she helped me see myself in a lighter way. Not to be serious but take one day at a time. I now am able to put my foot down if something is wrong or someone tries to blame me. I am sure you had your dad who helped you, but now since he is not here but he will look out for you when you help yourself. You will feel better and soon you will regain the confidence in yourself and others. Your husband is there for you and so are all of us here. Above all there is God. Thanks, Kavish

Hi Lisa, Thanks for the post. It's great to laugh and smile with our loved ones because like you said they are always with us in our hearts. HO HO HO, We need all the laughter in our hearts to burst out open with all the love. Thanks, kavish

Hi Shelley, I believe that Chelsea is always going to be a part of you, in your soul, in your heart and you will never lose her. Kavish

HI Mark, I had marked Bicky's anniversary on my outlook calendar 2 Jan. I always wonder if there is more to life than life that we are seeing/living. Coming on to this forum, and reading to everybody's cry's from the soul I understand there is a language which only our heart understands and "our" forum helps us to understand that. Thanks. Kavish

Hi Fraley Robert, I always think on those terms regarding my best friend, who was unquestionable in her support for me, no matter how I would lash out in my own way, she would let me come out of my misery in my own time and I now feel so much better about myself because she let me take myself kindly and not too seriously. I know I have always wanted to do things for her, maybe write her story for the newspaper, one of them has a special section for one story every day. But she was never the one to do anything for being noticed. Part of her independance. But I will definitely follow on her lead all the way till I meet her again. Thanks, Kavi

HI Shelly, God has given us a great way to preserve others memory. In our hearts and mind. Chelsea is with you and saying thank you. She wants you to be happy because today Jesus Christ is born. Chelsea says Jesus loves us all and no body is alone. Have faith, you are Shelly, who is loving to all of us here. Take care today on Christmas day and new dawn will arise. Kavish

The love and goodness comes when we have faith. However there are few troubled souls who don't see the faith and the future looks bleak. The ease of access to things (guns) also does not help build faith. I hope to be strong in my faith to help those who are unable to help themselves. I am sure the good is stronger than evil. Thanks, Kavish

Hi Mark, I don't believe in death. I believe the soul lives on and the physical world is only our imagination. What the eyes see we believe. Two books I want to share Deepak Chopra's Life After Death, though I don't agree with the Topic Death. And another recommended by him Concise Yoga Vashista. Mozzy is cute, like a child ready to hoodwink you. Thanks, Kavish

Hi Mark, I think there is something of Bicky inside you. You will always have him with you. Thanks for all the adventures you have with him and hope you will have more! Kavish

Hi Shelley, Don't doubt yourself. You are a God's child and God is always with you. Keep facing the challenges and they will turn into opportunities. Take care, Kavish

Hi Mary, Thanks for the kind tone. I went to school to read and write, so I can do that. But I wish there was a school of emotions, like the school of thoughts where they would teach to be carefree and smile and be happy you are alive. O Well, I am learning the real know how now. Thanks, Kavish

To understand cats I would need to go to the inner depths of my soul to understand their playful self. I only snatch a few glimpses of her all day and at night she is out and about enjoying, running circles around furniture and just having a jolly good time all by herself in the dark. I just admire their independent spirit. Thanks Mark and Kayc & Bicky.

Hi Mark ( & Bicky), I love Jazzy. She is fiercely independent and looks right through me. She was "on her own" for 6 weeks which I would like to know how she lived when someone finally alerted us to her whereabouts. Casper is forgiving of all my short comings while I have to strive to live up to Jazzy's high standards. Thanks, Kavish

Thank you both Enna/Anne and Mary, For making a lot of sense of emotions. I do not vent my emotions easily. I am too conscious to be spontaneous I should let go and feel free to express and let the river runneth over. Sometimes I feel like Ned Flanders. Hopefully I will come to a place in my life where I can be me. This would make me so much lighter like Homer Simpson. regards, Kavish

Hi Mary, I know that I am unable to inarticulate what I want to say but the gist is there. I thought this topic was current but it isn't that new after all. 08 Dec !!! But forgot the year was 2011!! I want to say is that everyone is at a different stage of living/reliving so much so, some can take just a little commotion others can encompass all but God has given each of us a gift to look at things from the stage at which each of us are. It takes some body more time, some one else less to understand what one self or some one else feels like. I know I still maybe sounding like talking in circles but that is how I speak. No one is very easily able to understand me except for God and my best friend! Thanks, Kavish

Mark, When I read about Bicky and your rescue of him, I said I must look into my dog's eyes and try and see what he truly means to say. He is a chihuahua so it is a bit of a struggle to get down on all fours to lock his eyes to mine. But after you told us of your beautiful moments every time it was a first for Bicky I want to know Casper, although it is totally different with the cat Jasmine who does not pay two hoots to me. They both are my landlady's pets but I take Casper for walks and runs and he is a true friend in sorrow or loneliness. Regards, Kavish

Hi Mary, Everyone is at a different stage or place in their life and we grow only when we endure the anger, pain or loneliness ourselves and of course we grow with the good like the love of one of a kind. I may not feel what you are truly going through, but I do hope that we all are striving to be more in tune with our feelings and help others as we learn more about ourselves. I too am guilty of being callous, not my problem, etc... but I does not mean I mean to hurt. Maybe your friend does not either. God has given us such a gift of heart which we can hear and listen to tell us how we feel. I hope we are strong so that together we can make it better for everyone. This forum just allows me to express myself what I feel today, it may not jibe with the topic but that's how I feel right now, haven't got any warning points yet,but please feel free if you think i am out of line. Kavish

Mark, Your Bicky's story makes me feel grateful for all animals on this earth and beyond. Thanks, Kavish

Hi Mike, I also lost my dad when I was 14. It was his birthday 2 days ago, and as I stood looking at his picture I said wow It's been a while that I looked closely and felt his gaze upon me and I probably did not understand his needs then, but I sure think he understands me. I feel your dad just as anyone's here will always let us grow and they will understand as we stumble and stand up again and feel them closer to us closer and closer. Take care, Kavish

Sorry to see it go. I always thought the restaurant was one nice place to visit as a family. Old fashioned sit down , no hurry, lots of room...red color..just like in the movies...

I am so sorry to hear that your son was killed by a car driven uncontrollably. I don't know why they would not have laws where every one has to take responsibility for something instead of putting it on a mental or physical lapse or relapse. I hope you courage and listen to your heart where your son lives, to find the strength to be strong and take care of yourself right now. Kavish
