My Companion

Recently I was struck by the desire for a four-legged companion.

Now, one thing you must know is that about a year ago we had to put down our beloved friend (Tootsie) of 5+ years because she had a brain tumor. Unbeknown to me was how deeply I felt her loss. While we did quickly get another dog for my son, I had no deep interest in it.

Then, among a gathering of like minded folks to discuss a “magical” opportunity, I was introduced to a dog that was part wolf. She hit me like a thunderbolt – I just felt this overwhelming calling in my heart for a new companion to walk the forests with me.

I searched, looked at so many dogs, had a one come to my home that I was falling for – and then I found her.

Makita (her name) was hours away, in a rescue kennel. There was something about her. Something in her bearing in her picture that melted my heart. I consulted the Lady and Lord and all my readings said it would be my decision. The moment she appeared through the door though, it was all I could to not to run to her and her to me.

Now as I introduce her to my other entities, we are bound and renewed in a quest to learn from each other and to help each other. As we walk the ancient paths together, my family is rewarded with a new family member, a more whole father and husband, and my heart is healing.

Blessed Be,
