Funny how attached you get.

Last night I received an email from a dear friend. Actually, we have never met, but we are old souls together and we email each other as often as we can.  She lives in New Mexico and had purchased and EBay item I had listed several years ago. We just clicked and our friendship was instant. I also have another dear friend who I met the same way.

Anyway back to what I was going to say. My friend informed me that one of her mules, Morgan, who was a rescue last year, passed away peacefully in the pasture. My tears were instant ( as I write this the eyes are watering). I had never met Morgan in person, but the day my friend sent me his picture I was in love with him. Just downright felt in my heart love. There was something about him that got into my soul. I though of him daily. He was kind and gentle even though he had been through some really bad times in his life.


After reading her email, wiping away the tears I realized how many animals have that I have never met, but have touched me. There is Sophie. Princess. Angel. Maddie. Albert. Boris. Franklin. Jack. Boone. Justin. And there are more. Most of you recognize their names because they are a part of your family. Though I have never met them and chances are probably won't, they have touched me.


Isn't it funny how just a picture and what you read can effect you? How they get into your heart. You know what I mean.


So to Morgan, rest in peace old boy.


Until next time..............................
