It all started with a story that will touch your hearts. Hemaswi’s little brother was very fond of dogs but unfortunately was never allowed to keep a pet dog. Hemaswi insisted on having one after her father's demise as there was a feeling of emptiness. So, the siblings brought Sky as a companion to their mother. The siblings had long working hours and had no one to take care of her and accompany her.
Having Sky at home was a perfect decision, shared Hemaswi. They all got adapted to a healthy and holistic lifestyle. By hugging or touching their furry friend, the siblings felt calm and soothing when stressed or anxious. Such is the impact, of having pets around.
Having a pet made them responsible like having a little kid at home. “He looks innocent but is very naughty. He often runs away putting something or the other in his mouth and we have to fetch him. This is a kind of funny act, but at the same time it keeps us active and occupied along with him,” said Hemaswi while sharing a funny incident.
“We had the feeling of emptiness and were always lacking something as nothing or nobody could ever replace our dad whereas Sky eased our loneliness and completed our family," added Hemaswi.
Sky understands and responds to human emotions and body language. Being a psychologist herself, Hemaswi shared that she was finding it difficult to cope up with her dad's loss.
"I was finding it difficult to have a work-life balance as after I lost my father, I went into depression and I was having frequent panic attacks. My family used to find me shattered and crying in the middle of night, having chest pain or shortness of breath. My mother and brother were clueless about what's happening with me and were worried. The only one who helped me battle depression was Sky as he used to snuggle me up and calm down. He was always there beside me and it felt that he understood everything," shared an emotional Hemaswi.
Every life has a purpose. Life finds meaning when purpose meets existence. So is Sky, who they believe is a Kaarana Janmudu (born with a purpose), as he was born the same day as her father. What a beautiful coincidence, isn't it? It indeed touches our hearts.
