A year ago at this time all felt good and right in my life. Little did I know that in less than 8 hours my world would come to an abrupt end as I knew it and Goliath's would ascend to another. Sometimes it seems so long ago, while other times it seems like yesterday. I yearn for his sweet kisses, cuddles, and playful little self.

Without Goliath's never dying love, I never would have understood the full meaning of what love and living is all about. He made me want to be a better me. Goliath's aura shines around me each and every day. His sweet memories of the life we lived together are embedded in my soul. His fire and zest for life roar in my spirit and comfort my heart.

Just as I promised Goliath, I have nourished his loving spirit and kept him alive in me and all around me. Though I have been blessed many times over in my life, Goliath was the greatest blessing of all. He taught me more about compassion of the heart, wisdom of the mind, and how to live in peace and harmony. For the rest of my days in this world, I will give thanks to Goliath for enriching my life so much. Though I will always cherish the past and dream of tomorrow, today is what I live for. I've learned to not sweat the small stuff and let go of worries. Today I will dance in love and laughter and squeeze the best out of life because tomorrow may not come.

As I contemplate the time of 3:31 a.m. and remember it was the exact time Goliath's body and soul separated, I will close my eyes and give thanks for having had the privilege of sharing Goliath's life with him.


The angels sang
January twenty fifth nineteen hundred and ninety seven
When God's own hand
Sent you to me straight from heaven


Thank you Goliath
For all you gave to me
Your unselfish love
And your company


You filled my days
With complete happiness and joy
Yes Goliath
You were always such a special good boy


We were joined by our hearts
From the day we met
You were so much more to me
Than just my pet


You left this earth
November sixth two thousand and seven
And went to live with our Lord and Savior
In heaven


Though you came to me
By God's own hand
He took you home to live
With Him again


You were only sent
For me to borrow
And your absence leaves me
With such great sorrow


And even though
We are apart
You will forever
Remain in my heart


One thing I know
With certainty
Is that we'll reunite
In eternity


But until then
You'll remain in my heart
My forever
Best friend

Sleep well
My precious angel
I will love you til
The day after forever
