Fifi's Barking
|
Manuel and
Rita’s home was
very sad.
Clara, their six
year-old
daughter and the
apple of their
eye, had
returned to the
spiritual world
because of a
serious illness,
leaving the
family in great
pain.
Because of the
suffering of the
parents who were
devastated with
the departure of
little Clara,
the couple’s
Spiritual
Friends
discussed how to
reduce their
suffering as
they could not
bear living
without their
beloved
daughter. The
little girl
suffered as she
received the
thoughts from
mom and dad
begging her
presence. Her
father would say
in his prayers:
|
- Come back,
little daughter!
We can’t live
without you. We
miss you very
much and are
suffering so
much that we
also wish to
leave in order
to meet you!
And the mother,
in tears, would
said:
- Clara, my
darling, we
cannot endure
life without
you! I can only
think of you,
dear! Come back
to us! All we do
is cry as we
remember your
pretty face and
the
conversations we
used to have.
Even your dog
Fifi is sad: she
doesn’t bark or
feed anymore!...
May Jesus send
you back to
|
us who
love you
so…
that's
all we
want. |
The Spiritual
Friends became
concerned with
the welfare of
little Clara
after hearing
those words as
she was still
weak due to the
illness that
brought her back
to the spiritual
world, and
studied the
problem, seeking
a solution to
calm the
suffering
parents.
Until one of
them decided,
after much
thought:
- It would be
best to take our
dear Clara to
visit her
parents, so they
feel that she's
okay and calm
down their
hearts and
disconnect a bit
from her.
The other
members of the
group agreed,
thinking that it
was the only way
to soothe the
parents’ hearts.
So on a day when
Manuel and Rita
would do the
Gospel at home,
Clara was
brought home
very gently by
the Spiritual
Friends for a
visit.
After reading a
passage from the
Gospel, her
parents began to
discuss the
subject which
was “Reasons for
Resignation,"
from Chapter V,
entitled Blessed
Are The
Afflicted.
Suddenly,
remembering
little Clara,
her parents
began to feel
tears well up in
their eyes as
they were unable
to avoid the
pain.
They had not
noticed that
Clara’s little
dog had entered
the room and had
been keeping
them company
quietly.
Suddenly, as
they commented
on the subject,
Fifi got up and
started barking
while looking
up. The parents
exchanged a
look, then
looked at her,
surprised with
her behaviour,
to which Rita
said:
- Look, Manoel!
Fifi had not
barked since our
little Clara
went to the
Spiritual
World!...
The mother had
her eyes wide
open as she
stared at the
little dog and
tears welled up
in her eyes, now
smiling and
excited:
- Manoel! Fifi
only barked like
this because of
|
|
our
Clara!
It is a
sign
that she
is here
with us! |
The father, not
wanting his wife
to get too
hopeful,
replied:
- No, darling.
Certainly Fifi
is barking
because she saw
an insect flying
across the room!
To which his
wife, shaking
her head and
displaying a big
smile on her
face, disagreed:
- No, Manoel.
Fifi only barked
like this when
she saw our
Clara arriving.
Note how she
looks up and
barks happily!
The father,
seeing his wife
so happy,
finally agreed
with her, as his
eyes were also
blurred with
tears.
They hugged and
said the final
prayer with joy
in their hearts,
commenting on
the Gospel’s
text, and more
than that,
talking about
the immortality
of the soul and
the joy of being
reunited with
their dear
little girl.
And Rita said to
her husband:
- I'm sure,
Manoel, that
when we go to
sleep we will
meet with our
dear daughter
Clara! Oh, may
the Lord bless
her! ...
Thus, excited
and hopeful,
they finished
the Gospel at
home and, after
a light meal,
prepared to go
to bed feeling
satisfied and
grateful.
And the
Spiritual
Friends who were
present shared a
smile, happy to
be able to help
the couple.
Shortly after,
as they fell
asleep, Rita and
Manoel left
their bodies and
went to the
spiritual world,
and the first
thing they saw
was Clara, their
beloved daughter
who had just
woken up.
The parents
hugged the
little one,
talked a bit
with her and
then returned to
their bodies,
happy and
grateful to have
seen and
embraced their
daughter who was
now in the
spirit world.
And the little
girl remembered
that soon it
would be her
father's
birthday, so she
hugged and
kissed him,
saying:
- Happy
Birthday,
daddy!...
