From Gizmo: “I am grateful for second chances. One time in my life I had given up. I was super depressed and didn’t think that life was worth living anymore. I had lost my home that I loved. And I didn’t think I’d ever find happiness again. I stopped eating and I got very sick. I thought I’d never belong anywhere ever again. But then, something happened. I realized how much the people here really cared about me. They worked hard to help me recover, and I did. I was given a second chance at being loved again. I found out life was worth living all along. And I healed. They promised me I wouldn’t get lost in the shuffle again and that I’d be able to have my space to call my own. It was what I needed. It is great to be heard and understood and loved. It’s never too late to believe in yourself and that your situation can change for the better. Sometimes you have to fight your own despair to survive. But I am here to tell you it is all worth it! I’m forever grateful to have learned that.”
In an effort to help us all through the stress, fear, and challenges faced by the COVID-19 virus, we are posting an animal message a day. (All messages through animal communicator/co-founder Dawn Hayman) The animals were each asked: What do you feel appreciation for in your life? Or “What would you like to share?”
