Words. One can influence people's way of feeling or thinking in many different ways. Just one word. Grace. This particular word I use to describe my puppy's life. My cat that I had for 12 years of my life passed on so by grace my dad let me get a puupy. Which I named Gracie. My cat lived on three days of grace before they let her go on to be in grace. I was hurt and torn inside. My poor little cat. The vet let her turn into a vegetable. There were many days I cried and I still think of her a month later, but now I have my puppy to be concerned about. I thought I was recieving this new, healthy pet and everything was going to be fine. After several days Gracie became very ill and we found out she had been for quite some time. The vet said my new puppy didnt have much of a chance. She was likely to die. We loved her. Gave her all of the care we could. Spent all of my savings on her vet bills and meds. I thought I was in a rut with bad grace, but thats just what I found; no grace is bad grace. Or, well, to me. As I type this she lies next me, all curled up. She is now a playful 5 month old puppy named Gracie. Grace is the life she lives and the hope she gave to me. My story here is the less explained version. There was a lot more complications to it and emotions.
Is there a word? Just a normal word that is little in letters, but great in meaning to you? Why? Take your word and tell me your story. How did this little word come to have such a big meaning to you?

What a great blog. For me the word that has such a meaning is "commitment" As I told you the story behind my wife and I. We have been through so much. For the first 5 years it was like an extreme rollercoaster. Through it all, my wife stood by my side. I know many people would have given up or just couldn't handle it. My wife did the opposite. She actually helped me get over things and encouraged me that things would get better. She stayed "committed" to me. As in our marriage vows, we are together to death do us part and we are "committed" to stand behind the words we exchanged.
Take care, Jeff
You are very intuitive for a person of your age...
My word would be TRUST.I feel without trust you have nothing.
Trust in my marriage is very important.It has taking me a long time to trust again after a long life of bad experiences.My husband has taught me how to trust.
That word Trust also pertains to friends.A true friend is someone who you can share your feeling with and they will still be around when the going gets tough.

Wow what a interesting story! Well my word is love. i had a cat her name was puddy and she was the most lvable cat i have ever known. my grandma gave me her cat before she died. Puddy was very loved by all people! This past Labor day Puddy passed on to be the kitty in the sky! i lived with my mom for 2 years and when i finally moved out i thought that i could take her with me. but i never did. she lived with my mom her cat and dog and was very happy where she was and i didnt want to break her heart if i moved her in my place. now the reason i said my word was love was because i loved her so much. i put her above everything. i would come back and stay with my mom for the weekend because of puddy. she was and still is my baby! one friday when i came to my moms house i would call her name. usually she comes out and greets me but this time she didnt. i was real scared. so i went looking for her and she was in my moms room under the dresser with her back to me so that nigh she was acting very weird. my mom came home and said well ill take her to the vet on tuesday. well i left to go on vacation on saturday and she took puddy in. the vet asked her how old was this cat and i thought that she was 13 when the vet looked at her he said no i dont think so this cat is 17! so long story short she passed on that sunday morning. mom made her as comfortable as possible. when i came home early tuesday and mom told me about puddy i fell to the floor screaming and crying and thought oh ill never love another cat like puddy! and that is so true. now i have a young tabby his name is Ctrus! and i love him in a different way. he is so spoiled! right now as im typing hes sitting on my lap. and also he is quite different than puddy! i am sorry to hear about your puppy i hope you and your precious puppy is going to be ok. take care!
