RIP

I believe animals are far more than they seem.
They are friends, with levels of compassion and love we cannot always comprehend.
The 'them and us' social conventions, that man rules over animals is something I cannot agree with.
On the contrary, I respect them often more than any human. They do not create war, nor throw hate around till we are bleeding metaphorically inside from pain, from pain that words created.
I had a dear friend called Prudance. A cat that moved me.
I don't know, when you watch death happen in front of you it can have profound effects.
Darling Pru, I took her to the vets and she had to pass. It was her time to leave the earth.
I do not know why, but the fact I watched death come over her... its had a big effect on me.
I have a big sadness that life is short, temporary. That I am not living it to its full.

Some would laugh that this is stupid. A minor event in my life that sweeps past me like the blur of paint on a canvas.
But instead, these brush strokes will last within me.

So, to my Prudence. You had a home with me for not long, but you died with love around you. And there is no better way to go.
