'I just put down one of my dogs just a few months ago (Cancer and diabetes) and it was damn hard to do. It still hits me hard to think of her. Let the Vet decide and just don't let her suffer in pain. Other than that, all of us dog lovrers know what you are going thru. You know her better and if you don't think it's time, then enjoy the time left with her.'

CB,
I've never had anything love me the way Ella does. I'm the biggest part of her world and she is by far the biggest part of mine when I'm spending quality time with her. She is such a 'woman' in her expressions and in so many things she does. Every evening I lay down on the floor with her and start by taking off her collar. Then I give her the super duper neck massage and she moves her head and stretches her neck just like a woman. Some times her paw will touch my chest and I can feel her curling her toes in delight. It's something I have with her alone - and I can't imagine life without it. It will be years -- before I need to put her down but I plan to give her the exact same massage I do every evening when that time comes. Cause I know it's the best place she's ever known.

I'm hoping your 'new dog' fills the void - cause I simply can't imagine not having something like 'her' following me around and getting all excited when I get home and everything else we do -- take walks and stuff.

Does the NEW one help it get better???

It's amazing how Gods creatures becomes so much a part of our lifes. They know as much about us and our funny little moods as we know about the others in our family. It's certainly a sad world to lose such a friend, I know we have had to put two down and tho I said I wouldn't have another then; Miss Molley showed up one day and the wife took a liken to her; she is a great dog. She looks forward to playing ball and if you get the keys she's ready to ride. It doesn't take long to train them just persistance. It's amazing how quickly they learn and are eager to obey and please.

You're so right EZ,

Ya gotta get another one. They can't replace what you lost, but they just fill another spot in your life.

CB, please forgive me for all the ways I've been such an idiot with you and so many of your friends. I know in at least 2 very huge ways I am so messed up that there is nothing I can do - but recognize it is part of who and what I am - and for the problems it has caused you and others I really am sorry.

I leave with nothing but the deepest respect for you and everyone else. I promise I mean that with all my heart.

The following is in response to a short letter I got today and what I had sent to a friend.

In the deepest sincerity I honestly believe this is my last time here and out of 'real love and respect' for you wanted to end here.

Well I wish you wouldn't go.

Dear precious friend, I am honestly so touched by your friendship and because of this I realize that you are but one of many that needs to deeply understand my situation.

You should go back and read your last message about being too hard on yourself and look in the mirror.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart and with all my being for expressing such depth and sincerity of love and compassion. It is totally the opposite my very wonderful friend and treasure, I am deeply grateful for everything I do see in the mirror and NEED that to continue.

Believe it or not, people like you and appreciate the input.

You are such an amazing GOD SEND Blessing to me and I do know that the MB is loaded with very many wonderful people that appreciate me. All the more every one of them needs the same elaborate explanation – I just told one of my dearest and most enduring friends.

I don't have any hard feelings for you.

Your Beauty and Depth are impossible to miss. Thank You!!

Very few would put it out there for others to attack. That takes some kind of strength man.

I wish so much I had known you before today.

Please don’t misunderstand me my incredibly genuine and deeply valuable friend. It is only that part of me that somehow lets the God of Grace and Glory known in me that doesn’t hesitate to make it known; or to confront others.

That is the part that more than willingly has no problems with attacks and that is by far the Strength I long to make known.

Please know the 2 biggest parts of my existence are just the opposite of the ‘good’ and ‘valuable’ and that is why I have no other choice but to leave. Now it would be even worse than attacking my wife, or children, or Ella. So I’ll send what I told my friend.

We have to TRUST in GOD with everything and with every situation

That is why I can’t go back to the MB and I hope you understand that. I am a raccoon and there is no way I cannot be one. Please explain that to Birch and the others. Things are different NOW and I will have to respond like a raccoon any time and every time I even see the hint of someone responding in a ‘negative’ manner. I can’t help it, I really can’t and I wish it weren’t that way but you know darn well that I’d even tear into Tom and the Moderators if I thought they were out of line.

There is NO ONE that is SAFE on the MB because of what has happened; even you. Please let everyone know this and especially Lady – but ultimately EVERYTHING – and I mean EVERYTHING has to be for GOD’s GLORY.

GOD had previously moved so deeply and thoroughly in My LIFE to show her such Total and Unending Devotion for the GIFT GOD gave her that largely became the Center of my LIFE and the basis of everything I lived for. She has a ‘Purity’ and an ‘Understanding’ that is as close to GOD as anything I have ever known. My LOVE and DEVOTION to her became so deeply saturated throughout every part of my Existence that it is WHO and WHAT I AM. Please know that it is TOTALLY PURE AND 100% Honorable and wholly meant for HIS GLORY.

But, I am a MAN, and even worse I am a RACCOON.

As wonderful and perfect as she seems – she is a WOMAN and if I (even in a distorted and totally bizarre mind) – thought SHE CRIED OUT TO ME – Then the MAN in me would totally Destroy all the GLORY GOD has done.

I can NEVER let the MAN do this and I cannot even allow the possibility to exist.

The Greatest and MOST EVER Present problem is because as a Result of what I believe GOD has done in me – and because the most thorough devotion existed even before I became a part of the Highest and Most Glorious WORK OF GOD in my entire LIFE - The RACCOON would ALWAYS and FOREVER – interfere with and ruin almost every interaction on the MB. That is a ‘Guarantee’ and NO ONE would be safe if I even detected the slightest hint of ‘disrespect’ or any type of ‘Negativity’ or inappropriateness.

I know I am a RACCOON and if you thought I was ever ‘ready to challenge and annoy and pick fights and stir up trouble and live to kick ass before’ – I’m a billion times more that way because of what happened. SHE is GOD’S HIGHEST WORK OF GRACE AND GLORY by which I had the Honor and Deepest and Most Thorough Privilege to accomplish.

The only way GOD could in any manner Have any GLORY and HONOR and PRAISE for what HE ALONE COULD DO is by ME – not allowing the Raccoon to interfere and mess up all that has been accomplished and all that ‘hopefully continues’ to remain.

I hope with all my heart you understand why me NOT going back is so important.

For NOW – praise GOD – ALL was truly done for HIS GLORY and that is ALL that Matters.

I hope Lady does understand this and in this ‘UNDERSTANDING’ she would have to know why I can never return to the MB. I can’t help that I’m a RACCOON but if others see that now it will ruin all the GLORY GOD has done.

CB,
I have NEVER seen anyone more strongly devote their LIFE and their efforts and energy to the genuine foundation of the USA and all it is meant to represent more than YOU!!

You are one of 'us' and that more than anything else is what makes 'us' Veterans.

Thank You !!!

Steady,

Thanks for considering me one of "you all", but I can't accept that, even though it feels good. :D But only a real Veteran, can be one of you.

I just know what sacrifices you veterans have made from my own family members who have surivived the Bataan Death March, to a cousin who lost his legs to a mine in Vietnam, to cousins that were the tip of the spear into Fallujah.

I just think that most of Americans don't really realize how big the sacrifices you all make and you deserve all our thanks.

Enjoy "Your" Day tomorrow. :D

Here's my simple experience from yesterday evening while I was at the grocery store. When checking out there was an Army soldier from the 101st Airborne Division in the line behind me waiting patiently while the cashier ran my coupons. When I was leaving the parking lot he was standing out front waiting on traffic. As I drove by I rolled down the window and hollered "101 all the way" and he responded "thankyou sir". It was just a small moment of recognition from one unknown veteran to another.
