So I am searching my mind wondering what to blog about. Should it be funny, should it be serious. Should it be about Lucy, should it be about Sammy? Perhaps even Mochi? I come up with nothing. I think about who I have been giving reiki lately too and I come up with nothing. I wonder why I’m coming up with nothing.
I realize its grief I feel. The dog that I had been sending reiki to every day died last week. I don’t think I have even dealt with my own sadness. I had been sending him reiki for several months.The last several weeks, I was sending every day. Many days it was just him on my docket. The dog belonged to one of my closest friends. In fact, I knew that dog as a puppy before I even liked dogs myself, before I even heard of the word “reiki”. It’s because of my friend that I even got a dog. I watched her grow up with dogs. She has always had a dog in her life. I have thought about my friend every day since the day she called me at work to tell me Bailey was gone. I had sent reiki to him that morning. Two days ago, I had seen a light. A day later, a smaller light. All I will say is that Bailey wanted to know that his Mommy was going to be ok. He was worried about her and wouldn’t let go until he knew SHE was going to be ok. Is that not the ultimate in unconditional love. Afterall he had been with her 13 years. I remember the puppy classes he would fail out of and get all the other pupppies to follow him. The times where he would eat her underwear (shhh!) and her panty hose. And off to the Vet they want. But he was the highlight of her life. He got her through everything. Now, as I said before, dogs give us such a great joy, they give us back more than people that don’t have pets will ever realize. They truly are God’s gift to us humans. I know, that with reiki as Bailey got older, he was able to run up the stairs again. With reiki, Bailey was able to bark at his Mommy in the end weeks. Mommy said she wanted him to talk to him, so when I sent Bailey reiki, I told Bailey Mommy wants to hear you talk. Well, then he started barking again. All we all wanted is for Bailey to not be in pain. Would you not say this is God’s best plan, the day Bailey was to move on, he was with his Daddy and Mommy. Because they were on vacation, and they took their dog with them. When I heard that I felt good. We all knew time was coming close. At least they were together.
Many reiki blessings to Bailey and his family. To my friend Heather. This blog is for Bailey.
