Fragile

As I returned to yoga for the first time after multiple surgeries, chemotherapy, my yoga teacher said a few words before class.  "Life is fragile/love is strong".  I thought, yeah, okay.  But as the class progressed and I struggled with the asanas, I thought - how right she is.

Two days ago, my dog, Daisy (photo below) passed away unexpectedly.  Granted, she was 11 years old, but we love her so.  Even as her life faded before our eyes, our love for her never waned.  We still love her even though she is gone.

With our hearts saddened, we muddle through the days and realize how fragile our lives are.  But our love for each other will remain.  It has to in order to sustain us through the days.
