I turn 67 today.....and actually I feel better as the years accumulate. Since I've gotten older I actually have decided that I will celebrate each day during the month of October...just being grateful for being healthy and alive. I hope each one of you who follow this little blog of mine celebrate each day along with me.... Here are some of the things I have planned for my birthday month: 1. Listing our current home the end of the first week in November. We are pretty excited to be moving into a little smaller spot as it means less work and maintenance. We just want to be able to live more and work less. Although we still have not found our new spot.....we know it is out there. 2. Taking a 15 day cruise on the Rhine from Amsterdam to Budapest. We will visit 5 countries along the way. One of the stops will be in the place I was born....Nuremberg, Germany. My family left Germany right after the war...when I was quite young. Memories are almos

Oh I FIRMLY believe animals have souls!!! And I am so glad we will be reunited with them in HIS kingdom. Hugs to you today. Tazzy
ReplyDeleteYou know when the Prophet Elijah was taken away to Heaven in in whirlwind, he was taken off in a chariot with a horse. I feel HE has his beloved animals in Heaven! I believe One fine day we will see all the animals we ever loved! I believe they do have Souls too. Lovely post Jo...oxo
ReplyDeleteYes yes they do!!!!!!!!!! And it comforts me to know when my darling dad passed on his beloved dogs where all there to great him!
ReplyDeleteI LOVED this post because i just love animals!!!

Beautiful post..the pictures are gorgeous! Oh yes of course..every living thing..to me ..has a soul and a spirit....a tree, an animal.. a tiny rock,a flower..a bird..the land sky and sea....we are all one! Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteOh Jo of course they do... if I did not know I would be with all God's precious little critters and my sweet pets who have passed away, I don't know if I could go on... there are so many lessons humans could learn from theses dear "souls"... I actually have more animal friends than human ones I do believe... beautiful photos... xoxo Julie Marie
ReplyDeletegreat question to ponder~ I think they do...And spirit too. I think if we can attract the right people into our lives, some who are our soul mates or kindred spirits. Why can't the same apply to our pets and other critters?
ReplyDeleteSometimes I get a wee bit "skeert" that animals have more soul than human beings...
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a FANTASTICALLY beautiful week-end!!!

~*~* Such a touching post* Yes I believe they do..my baby girl Claire is a cat and I love her like my own child..she is the sweetest lil girl ever*Thanks for this sweet posting* Blessings, Rachel
ReplyDeleteAny living breathing animal that gives soooo much unconditional love and companionship absolutely has to have a soul!! My little crazy weiner dog is sitting here with me, and I know he has one!!
ReplyDeleteHi Josette,
ReplyDeleteWhat truly touching photos!!! Regarding animals having souls...oh yes :)
I'm currently reading a book entitled "chosen by a horse" by Susan Richards and though I've not gotten too far in the book, I'm sure it will leave me with more convinced of this fact.
Peace and Love,
Susan
PS Thanks for posting about my giveaway :)

Bonjour Jo! Oh I think they have sould too!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to let you know - COngratulations ly friend, you won the Bags of Love giveaway! I could not find your email address. If you could email your info, and I will forward all to the company, who will then contact you so they can prepare your personalized bag!
Dear Jo,
ReplyDeleteYou at least show heart for animals! That is a plus for anyone. How people treat the elderly, kids and animals is revealing a LOT about them! I truly do hope that our pets have souls and will reunite with us again one day... But then again, a weird thought if you have to face all the animals one has eaten over a life-time and on who's skin we walked in our shoes...

Hello,
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely post with beautiful photos. I honestly believe animals do have a soul.
Thank you for visiting my page and becoming my first follower..

I'm touched by this post. I've never understood why (most) religions say that animals don't have souls!! They have the capacity to respond to our emotions and bring happiness to our lives, so in my opinion...they must!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the BEAUTIFUL images, animals are more gentle than humans somtimes.
Beautiful photos.For sure God has given them a soul.
