I come across amazing news articles all the time thanks to friends on Twitter and Facebook and more on Google Reader. This article blew me away: Hungry eagle inadvertently swoops toy poodle away to better life
How many times have you thought to yourself "Life couldn't get any worse!" but then it does. How many times have you said "It'll never get better" but it does.
This poor little doggie lived in poor conditions as a stray. Couldn't get worse for a poor, defenseless creature, right? Hungry, tooth decay, foot problems. Then she's captured by an eagle then dropped from the sky. Broken ribs, scratches, petrified. Why do bad things happen to good doggies you ask? Well, the story has a happy ending. Her parachute-less skydiving drops her at a nursing home where nurses got her medical attention. She wouldn't have survived much longer on the streets and now she has a chance to be adopted, mended, loved.
Hashem takes care of his creatures great and small. We're supposed to pray for his help even as the sword (or eagle's talons) is at our neck because salvation can come in an instant.
This little doggie's life is a parable for human suffering. Sometimes the bad things that happen bring about the best. Sometimes things get worse before they get better. Sometimes when you think things will never change, they do. Yes it stinks in the mean time, it's scary, it hurts, it may be all you know. But in the blink of an eye it can all change.
The linked article includes ways to donate to help May (what staff named the miracle pooch) with medical expenses and adoption.
