Still feeling devastated over the death of two of our dogs, Tonchingwa (2 years old) and Molly (not even a year old). I feel sad because they bring joy and energy after a day's tiring work. Tonchingwa can bark as loud as he can but knows how to control his volume when inside the house. Molly's black and brown shade makes him look like an "anito" (ghost). And these two dogs' got personality.
At first, we thought they were just suffering a simple illness but we were wrong. I feel so regretful and I wish I could bring back time. Because of our busy schedule, we weren't able to notice the symptoms and the silent clues of their suffering. I regret over my neglect also on my part. How I wish I could have spent more time with them before they died. I feel more sadness when it comes to my mind the memories I had with these two "man's best friend". I will surely miss them.
Maybe the wisdom that I can share about this happening is the willingness to sacrifice quality time over a love one, a passion or anything that helps one grow. This time I learned my lesson also not to be mindless of the slight changes in behavior of our pets (and much more of humans) so that anything wrong will still be given the time to heal or correct it. This calls for sensitivity to others (not only of pets but much more on our human relationships). For we don't know, the symptoms that something's wrong maybe already under our nose but we just refuse to notice it. Haaay...Tonchigwa and Molly taught me a lesson I will never forget.
