Excerpts from
Heavenly Paws...
p.7 I was stunned that my dog Maxwell
reincarnated. It is not something I expected or asked for. Quite frankly, I
would not have asked. I didn't want to have to live any longer than my new
puppy Gabbie's life span. Spiritually, I had died from my husband's betrayal,
loss of my two parents and my two dogs. I was struggling to go on and was in a
very dark place.
This is why I believe Maxwell came back to me.
His purpose was to show me not only how much he loved me, but just how close
the Afterlife is and that all of my loved ones are alive, well, and blissfully
happy. He alo came back for his love and devotion to inspire and drive me
forward.
I know my dog's message is that the love our pets
have for us is like the love we'll one day have in the Afterlife. His message
is life never-ends. Life is a cycle, and people need to embrace this. Society
needs to understand the virtues of responsibility, respect, moral values, and
love. p.9 People
need to learn from their pets, unconditional love and unwavering devotion and
loyalty. If people could achieve the level of their pets think what a wonderful
place Earth would be. I know the love a dog has for its owner is the same kind
of love we'll one day have in the Afterlife.
p.l9 WORDS OF SIMPLICITY - in the words of Maxwell
and Melody
We teach humans that love is
totally unconditional with a devotion and blissful joy that inspire.
Humans will be happy when
they learn to love one another by emulating their dog's love for them.
Joy is the devoted love dogs
feel for their humans. It is the sound of the car, and the sound of the door
opening.
Play with your human when
their heart is breaking.
A simple smile warms the
heart and activates the spirit.
p.46 MAXWELL'S FIRST
CHRISTMAS -
When
we returned, we entered the house to find that Max unwrapped the last gift
under the tree. There were Christmas wrappings from one end of the room to the
other, with our gifts in various states of disarray. My immediate thought was
to thank God that Max hadn't pulled over the tree and hurt himself or eaten
ornaments. I saw pure joy on Maxwell's face and thought this is Christmas
innocence and joy. I enjoyed his pure delight as much as he did and found his
antics great entertainment.
p.65 MAX AND MELODY RAIN AND
SNOW
Maxwell did not like rain,
even a drop. When we got up in the morning, I opened the door to let Max and
Melody outside. Unless it was pouring rain, a happy Melody just bounced out the
door. Max on the other hand, stuck his nose out the door to see if he could
smell moisture in the air. If it was sunny everything was all right. If it was
cloudy or damp Max had to determine if it was safe to go outside
