Your thread has made me cry....And can I share my sad story too?
Schatzie lives with all us in the country. We fist lived in this house down the hill, pretty small and very bland. On this house a two car garage was attached and my husband and I started our dental lab business in this garage. Over time we grew and became more profitable.
We took that profit and built a beautiful house upon a hill overlooking the valley, overlooking that bland boring house we once lived in. Thinking "wow", we have moved farther in life, no longer living there with rotting wood and old fixtures. We are now sitting upon this beautiful hill with a goregous view. A few years ago some people we know moved into that house, a family of 4 with 5 dogs.
That family didn't have such profitable luck as we did so they had to move this past weekend, unfortunately felt it not neccesary to take those five dogs with them. The man of the house shot those five dogs in that garage. my other neighbor heard those shots and the cries of the dogs. A selfish act uncomprehendible of a descent human being to do such things as this. At times in my mind to find nonforgiving even.
Now tonight, I stand on my deck, upon this hill and overlook the valley with the gorgeous view. Though now only look upon the house where those dogs were murdered. My beautiful view has forever since changed.
No profit or misfortune will ever bring those dogs back and I will forever until I die have a broken heart for them. My beautiful view is now only a sad memory of what some humans can do with such great gifts from God.
