A Dog Named Light – Knowing Her Soul Intention

Collie

My Pets and Their Soul-Prints Upon me

Light was a collie I had in my mid-twenties. I was in a relationship with my first great love, David. We had a cottage house in Tujunga, California, and a beautiful backyard. From early on Light was Royalty and so easily trained. She was a gracious host to all – always shaking hands with new friends and greeting them with deep love and acceptance.

The pure joy of Light and the soul connection we had was sacred. We could sense each other’s thoughts. Our walks, our play, time just sitting together and the feeling we communicated soul-to-soul was an ever-present reality.

Light did have an aura around her that would bring anyone to feel there was a Divine Presence before them. I was with David for 5 years. He introduced me to the works of Ernest Holmes, and the Science of Mind – New Thought Teachings. I studied for 4 years to prepare to enter the ministry. In 1971 I was still in my 4th year of study and the opportunity to speak at the Tucson Church of Religious Science opened. I flew there and that very first Sunday they asked if I would be their minister. My studies would not be complete until the fall, and this was early spring. They agreed to fly me back monthly and, in the summer, I went there to spend two weeks and present a class. My decision to accept the offer was emotional and life changing. It would be the end of my relationship with David as we had discussed as he felt it was not possible for him to join me.

A Harrowing Trip

That summer, I drove to Tucson, with Light. Light was her usual Royal Being and when people came to the class I presented, she would be at the door waiting to shake hands with everyone who entered. She melted hearts as they entered. She would remain in the class, and she was a blessed Presence.

On our return trip – crossing the Salton Sea desert area, we came into a horrific thunder, lightning, and rainstorm. The rain was so strong that you could not see. It was a terrifying trip for both of us. I tried to calm Light, pulling over to the side of the road, but it was an emotional and frightening journey home.

My time returning and into the early fall was not easy. I would be leaving all my family around me, my mom, my sister who had remarried, and all my nieces, and David.

I was taking Light with me. However, weeks before I was to leave, Light disappeared. We searched and put ads in the paper and posters – but there was no response. I was devastated and I knew it had to do with the frightening trip home we had experienced that summer – Light had made her decision – it was not to be for her.

A Prophetic Dream

During that time of searching, I had a dream – Light came to me and conveyed she was fine and had found a family with children and this was where she needed to be. She would forever love me and cherish me as her Master and soul friend. I knew that dream was the truth.

Later that fall, it turned out to be. David called me to let me know he had found Light – and spoke with the family that had found her.

It’s so important to realize – animals have deep feelings, and their senses are keen. They do read us and respond with the energy and vibration we project. Light is an example of that, coming to me in that dream to let me know as I was answering a new “Call” – so was she. Another companion pet – forever in my memory.

Again – think of all the “Transcendental Moments” and depth of Love your pets have brought you.

Moments

Transcendental Moments create the Remembrance within us that we are One. There is something universal that when felt and sensed impacts our lives in ways that move us to a higher awareness and value of ourselves and all around us. I share a writing of a reflection on “Moments” that I realize held within them, the opportunity of Transcendence. I honor all who have touched me with those sacred “Moments” that are in my heart and soul.

“Moments”

There are those Moments when I know I have experienced LOVE — the LOVE that will sustain me and carry me through a dark night, and the LOVE that magnifies my times of JOY.

It is the LOVE I feel as the rays of the sun burst through the clouds. It is LOVE that has come from brief exchanges, but when someone has gone out of their way to come through for me.

It is a friend’s gift of simply listening, and it is also LOVE that has enabled that friend to say what I most needed to hear, perhaps when I least wanted to hear it. It is the LOVE that I reflect upon over the years, and I realize how integral a part of my life someone has become, and how he or she has contributed to my most beautiful and profound memories.

There are those Moments when I realize this LOVE knows no time or absence and though life’s realities or events may have separated us, this person is as near as the beat of my heart, and when I bring them to mind, there is warmth and joy. It is in those Moments I acknowledge how LOVE sustains me be it family, friends, or simply a “Moment” with someone I may not meet again.

There are the Moments when I meet someone for the “first time” and deep within I know there is a reunion of a friendship of lifetimes ago. Through these “Moments” of Remembrance, I create a collage of LOVE of people, places, and events. I realize what a blessing it is to have lived the life I have, for through it I have deepened my understanding and compassion for myself and others. With grief and loss, joy, and triumph, I know LOVE is the origin of all and LOVE is my destination. However brief, however long, everyone and everything is a part of my heart’s collage,

Please take time to remember those “Moments” that can, in Truth, lift us to “Transcendence” – valuing this gift of Life.
