My Favorite Picture

Picture credit; Kathrin Gralla This picture warms my heart, my mommy heart. For some reason did I collect all (actually missing one pair that our dog ate) of my daughters riding boots. From when she was three years-old, riding in south Italy, until now, 13 years-old in Germany. She had a “break” from riding when…

Live a Little

This Easter made me think a little extra. I always think a lot…it’s the author in me, I think! However, maybe a little extra when life is bumpier than ‘normal’. I always tell my children to try to focus on the “helpers/brave” in the world, rather than looking too much into the “destroyers.” One (of…

Never Close Your Heart

I read somewhere that dogs rather go to humans that cry, than those that laughs. Can it be that the emotions are strong and, indicates the need of help? Or, is it that simple that dogs got pure empathy! That’s Amore!

I didn’t leave to hurt you! I left to heal me! I read this somewhere many years ago. It was so true. I had to leave since we were destroying each other instead of being uplifting to each other. Blame game kept going! Exhausted, and full of pain managing to stop being codependent. Why are…

You are Not Invisible

For many years now have I been rescuing all kind of Animals. I know how it feels not being heard, while in pain. I know how it feels not being seen, while in pain. I know how it feels when you seek help and you hear, “so sorry, but we cannot help you! We do…

The Feeling of Being Invisible

🖤 A child’s way to catch anyone’s attention when not being heard. Their pain is being shouted out. We cannot say we didn’t know! Help, I Am Someone!

Goodbye Gracie

It never gets any easier to say goodbye to a friend. Our Gracie, taught me so much about thinking wrong about pet rats. She actually cured me from being afraid of rats. Amazing smart! Amazing clean! Amazing fun! Why does Animals have such a short lifetime? Their Love Lives ForEver That’s Amore’ RIP

On the Run Towards New Goals

Since 1999 have I been in the Animal Rescue Life of Living. Oregon I rescued thanks to Tracey Kleber big support. We got four other Rescue Horses that we brought back to feeling alive again. Feeling appreciated and loved. At the same time they are giving me back so much more. They also not only…
