dear friends,
we had to say goodbye to our
trusted, loyal, resident healer.
one morning almost twenty years ago
i heard a young cat cry for help as he bravely reached out
for a family life.
his willingness to reach out
after being abandoned
was a life changer for our new family.
he choose us.
if you have known our family,
and come to our home
you too have shared the magnificence of
our Jackson.
i marvel at the moments
that make all the difference in our life journeys.
Jackson melted and healed hearts his entire
twenty years.
may we all let our miracles in,
answer our calling,
soften our hearts and choose love
wherever and whenever
it shows up softly
calling our name.
thank you for showing up here
each week sharing your hearts.
i look forward to visiting each one of you
and drinking in your beauty and warmth.
xoxo,
jackson's mom

It's hard to bid farewell to someone who's been part of our lives for years and years. May you find peace as you remember Jackson and all his purrs and snuggles.

Thank you for sharing this regal cat of so many years with us, Rebecca, and your heart over this loss. He is continuing to heal hearts, as he has touched mine this morning. I love you my friend, and send a hug and my heart. XO

Its so odd, but this past few days, in my IG travels, I have come across two birds and one dog that had to be bid farewell. Now Jackson. They all must be meeting somewhere, for a big angel party. r.i.p. handsome Jackson. I can see that you were so loved! You came to the right place 20 years ago. I'm sorry for your broken heart, Rebecca. It will heal with time, although it will always have a crack in it; a crack left by the love you gave to Jackson. xo

I'm so sorry for your loss. Our cats are a delight to us too. And have missed the ones who have blessed us with their presence. Hoping you find consolation and healing in your memories. Wishing you well.

It was like my own cat looked at me... "James" looked just the same, I lossed him over 10 years ago but I still miss him sometimes. So sorry for your loss Rebecca. Big hug!
