I'm sorry for your tears. They'll be with you a while.

I've been trying to lay my hands on a quote I'd read, which touched on our choice to spend our lives with fellow creatures whose lifespans are far shorter than our own, but the richness of experience with which they gift us makes it worthwhile.

Michael and I are only just feeling "up to" looking around for another cat, or preferably two sibling cats, to take in and care for, after so long.

[And thanks for friending me back. I've been reading this journal since the days when the malkhos account and the empousa account were separate.]
