Java, my first partner's dog I just learned this past Saturday was put to sleep. She was 12 years old.
I've never met a dog in my entire life that was as unique and special as she was. Java was part Grey Wolf and German Shepherd. She was so incredibly smart and just aware of her entire surroundings. If she had met you just once, she would have remembered who you were and be so excited to see you. When you stared into her marbley gold eyes....it was like she was staring into your soul.... I will always treasure the time we shared together...
Rest in Peace girl....
I will see you one day again on the Rainbow Bridge....
13 Jul 2005 Nederlands Indische Spoorweg Mij Maschinenfabrik Esslingen Class B25 0-4-2RT B.2502 (1902) 3ft 6 in gauge.
On the Train, from Bandung to Surakarta, a.k.a. Solo. We started at 07h00 and arrived at our destination, Solo, around 15h42 and 448 km further.
Aris, our tourguide, booked us on the Eksekutif; more luxurious than the regular coaches would turn out to be. Catering offered tea, coffee, and made-to-order noodle soup and nasi goreng (fried rice), amongst others. Also, a security officer is part of the crew, as well are 2 mechanics, just in case. Air conditioned, foot rest, reclining chairs, and an absolutely stunning landscape to travel through, it all made this train ride worthwhile. I'd recommend anyone visiting Java to get on board, at least once, of this one.
The KA Argo Wilis' "maiden flight" was on 8 November 1998, and till date it goes all the 699 km (11 hrs)
and only stops at: Stasiun Tasikmalaya, Kutoarjo, Yogyakarata, Solo Balapan and Madiun. Bandung and Surabaya lie within easy reach when choosing KA Agro Wilis.
Java is the world's most densely populated island (population: 136 million). It is home to 60% of Indonesia's population. Much of Indonesian history took place on Java; it was the centre of powerful Hindu-Buddhist empires, Islamic sultanates, the core of the colonial Dutch East Indies, and was at the centre of Indonesia's campaign for independence. The island dominates Indonesian social, political and economic life. More information on wikipedia.

Java went to Heaven yesterday (2/4/08) - - - - - (Java with his toys during a playtime, photo taken 1/23/08)
I helped Java find a new home quite a few years ago. It has been a pleasure to get to know his wonderful family as friends.
What a handsome big guy Java was. He lived a long, happy, fun-filled and very contented life. He was treated like the Prince that he was. He wanted for nothing.... well, except always "more cookies, please, mom"! :) From sharing popcorn on the couch with mom to having his very own bedroom.... what a spoiled boy he was (the way it should be!). He had a wonderful Borzoi smile and an uncanny sense of love and humor that will live on in the many wonderful memories of his family.
Java is deeply missed by both his family and me.
He will live on in our hearts forever.
Run with the wind, Java....

I Haven’t Left At All
I saw you gently weeping as you looked through photographs;
You paused for just a moment at one that made you laugh.
But as you turned more pages, the tears began to flow.
You whispered that you missed me but I want you to know;
I softly licked those stinging tears that down your cheeks did fall
I want to help you understand I haven’t left at all.
On days that you are overcome with sorrow, pain and grief,
I rest my head upon your leg to offer some relief.
And when you take our walking path I’ve seen you turn around;
I know you surely heard my paws upon the ground.
At night while you are sleeping, I snuggle at your side;
You stroke my fur as you touch that place where I used to lie.
You say it’s just your heart playing tricks upon your mind
But rest assured I’m really there, my spirit’s stayed behind.
I know your heart is hurting; it’s like an open sore
You think my life has ended and you won’t see me anymore.
But for those of us bound tight by love, death is not the curtain call;
It’s really the eternal beginning that waits for us all.
So, dear Master, live your life as I patiently wait
For us to be together when you pass through Heaven’s gate.
