“When you lose your beloved dog, your heart will shatter into pieces. You will pick up the pieces and glue them back together. Your heart will never be the same. It will always be broken. Over time, the pieces will come back together, with love and happiness and memories joining the seams of the broken pieces. Once all the pieces are joined, you realize that the glue of love, happiness, and memories has made your heart just a little bit bigger, and the glue of love, happiness, and memories isn't a scar, but is now a permanent piece of you where that dog will live forever.”
