I am a little distracted from writing my post for this week, you see I unexpectedly became a mother overnight! Here she is, an almost ten month old canine we renamed Seeta. What a surprise when we met her yesterday, not only because we weren’t expecting her so soon, but also because she is the splitting image, except less bouncy, to our old friend Scooter who went to Doggy Heaven over a year ago.
It never ceases to amaze me, how the power of intention and surrender works in manifesting what you want from the universe. My husband and I decided a week ago that it was now time to find a dog. There were a few restrictions because of our circumstances. Given that our town does not have an SPCA and the few needful animals are fostered in the homes of volunteers, we have been looking on-line for dogs far away from us. We were wanting to adopt a homeless dog and although we weren’t keen on the idea, it being a six hour trip and two ferries later each way, we thought we would wait until our next trip to the city to check out the SPCA there.
Like humans, I believe that dogs have karmic connections with the people they end up living with. I decided that the dog destined for us would find us if we let the universe know that we are ready. We called the SPCA contact in town and asked her to look out for a dog that might be a good fit. She told us that there was a dog that was fostered that day, but she knew nothing about her except that she was a LabX named Shadow. That same morning, the DVDs on pack-leadership training arrived, so we were able to learn about how to choose a dog before we went to meet Shadow.
It turned out that Shadow was the perfect match for us and she reminds us of our old dear friend in so many ways. She already knows her new name although we brought her home just last night and we are already comfortable with each other.
I am so grateful for how easeful it was to find our new companion and for the joy she has already brought. Her coming so soon, her likeness to the personality of our old friend, is a spiritual reminder of the power of asking for what you want with clarity. The universe is always ready to provide for all our needs.

Sounds like Seeta found heaven right here with the two of you as her humans!
Hello Pamir,
Yes, Seeta is living in paradise with two humans doting on her and her own backyard wading pool, how good can life get!
Happy weekend!
Hi Miruh!
What a wonderful gift you have in your beautiful new companion. Dogs are like children – you never have to wonder at what they are thinking. And that is such a gift. When the time comes for my family to adopt a dog, I truly hope our story will be as magical as yours!
Congratulations again on your new family member.
Have Fun! Nicole
What a beautiful dog! Congats on finding the perfect match for you and Ed.
How wonderful! She has such an expressive face…I am sure she has found her home with you.
Blessings, dear Miruh!
Hello Nicole,
I agree, dogs are like children, they are very expressive of what they want and need. For them it’s all about the present moment. They are our teachers if we let them.
Thanks for your kind words!
Hello David,
Thanks! Yes Seeta is the perfect dog for us. Her nature is very gentle and friendly and she loves to play. We are so happy and grateful that she found us.
Hello Linda,
Dogs have a way of letting you know how they feel by the look on their faces. I try not to give in to the sad, poor me looks!
Seeta is on a one week trial but we decided on the first meeting that she is a keeper.
Thanks for your kind words!
Miruh, my sister recently acquired a golden doodle puppy and the rambunctious energy is catching. Animals have a magical way of encouraging human beings to remember the source of their own vitality. Pleased to hear you continue to take initiatives to enrich soul.
Hi Miruh,
I am so happy that I got to meet Seeta, she is a really beautiful creature. It’s like Michelangelo himself carved her. Wow! Seeta couldn’t be ’sweeta.’
May she lead you to new adventures in love and kindness. I already know that she is a special soul.
Hello Liara,
Seeta shows us how to have fun and hold on to the energy of peace. Dogs remind us our innate qualities of unconditional love and as you say of our boundless energy.
Your sister must be having lots of fun with the very active energy of a Golden Doodle puppy! I agree, animals can share their yang energy with us and bring balance.
Hello Alexys,
I love your play on words, Seeta… sweeta. Thanks! I will always remember how much sweeta my life is when I call her name.
Yes, I feel she is a very special soul and we will learn lots from her. Thanks for your kind words, couldn’t be sweeta.
Even though finding the perfect place or thing (or in this case, pets!) after I’ve put my requirement “out there” doesn’t surprise me as much as it once did, it still gives me a very warm and loving feeling. I’m glad you and Ed and Seeta found each other…Seeta is very beautiful and has a great spirit! She’ll be keeping you on your toes!
Hello Marion,
Yes, it might be possible to take for granted the everyday miracles that we are blessed with. Remembering gratitude, that warm and loving feeling, keeps the magic alive.
Thanks for your kind words, we feel very blessed.
Happy Weekend!
