"I recently lost my sweet dog & didn't know what to do with his ashes. After researching I decided to use @TheLivingUrn to plant him a special tree. The process was simple & the instructions tell u exactly what to do. I ❤️ how it turned out & feel so much more at peace now." 🐾

“And did you get what
you wanted from this life, even so?
I did.
And what did you want? To call myself beloved,
to feel myself beloved on the earth.” 🍃
