When we think about death, it's always with sorrow, sadness. Anger (my case). But, as I sit in the coffee shop and think, maybe death sometimes is love and peacem, to a soul that was suffering without be able to speak.
My dear friend, Shiva, was my dog, she was the happiest dog I ever met. She liked peeling coconuts in our garden, to sleep in my lap or the middle of the room (she would snore from being so relaxed), and whe I scratched her ears. And when I stopped she would ask more with her little paw.
She was my best friend, and every time things was hard, I knew I could just go at the garden and be with her, play with her and everything would be okay, because I have her. I planned to one day take her to see the sea and play in the sand, she never ever was at a beach, so I hope in the underworld King Hades show her how a beach is, how the sea smell and how soft in the sand. I tought I knew how to end cicles, that I had no problem with that lol how stupid I was. The truth is: I have worked with Hades and Persephone and Nyx, I have helped spirits to cross and went trough a lot of all kinds of ends in my life, and this taught me I have zero fucks on HOW to deal with death and end.
But I know I am not alone, I know Hades will hear my prayers, I know Nyx will be with me when I get sad thinking about her, and I know Persephone will welcome her there, I know.
All of this is just a way for me to deal with her loss, and to honor her. In 357 days, when will be october 27, it will have a altar waiting for her, very beautiful, all for her. And I will wait, and in this middle time, I'll do my best to live well, to be a better witch and tarot reader, to help others and myself, and reat everyone with kindness. I'll take what she have taught me forever: that life is simples, and you can have joy with anything, even a simple coconut.
I love you my baby, thank you for the time you had with me, even tho was so little - only 4 years - I am thankful, will were a sunshine in my life and I love you so much, now you will make the spirit happy in asphodelus with your shine light.
