Thank you everyone.
I may be taking a brief hiatus from RU. This has really torn me down and the best thing I can do right now is concentrate on other things I've left aside so that I could focus more attention on the rabbits. Working and taking care of personal business is the only way I can keep my mind from circling through the events of the last two weeks.
An interesting thing tonight though. I had become quite cross, I was ready to retire for the evening but still had to walk the two dogs. I was taking out the trash and had a few bags to drop in the bin. I kept going past this rock in the path. It wasn't there this morning when I went out, I don't even recall seeing it this afternoon, but there is a thick mist outside tonight...fog right down to the ground, very eerie. I passed the rock 3 times and on the 3rd pass I picked it up, even though I didn't want to. I brought it into the house and washed it off, as I often do with rocks I pick up. It wasn't until I turned it over that I got this weird feeling and looked at it very carefully. I even asked my daughter to look at it too, just to be certain I'm not losing the plot.
I can see, and probably only I can see this really, the form of a wee rabbit. It is seated in attention position with it's head turned towards me, not to the side so I can't see it's eyes. On the forehead area of the image of the rabbit is a white spot, like a blaze.
Fiver's blaze.
The body is petite but well formed and I even see two grooves where the lines of two straight up ears should be. There is another groove that forms the foreleg. There is even, as my daughter pointed out, a white-ish dot where a fluffy tail would be.
You can only see the image on the rock when it is wet. We've had no rain or even a hint of moisture for weeks. Tonight is full moon and the marine layer has come in strong, which is good for the wildfires nearby as well.
I have a rock my son gave me years ago that has a stronger image of a rabbit in it, so perhaps I was subconsciously picking up this rock for that reason.... But I'm probably just seeing things. If I can I'll get a picture of it, but I honestly don't expect anyone else will see it. I think it was just meant for me.
He is still with me.
