auld lang syne...

thank you friends for visiting me here, leaving your love, prayers & your comments...as well as those who sent me personal letters, over the past 2 weeks while I struggled with the sudden illness & death of my Abyssinian, Puja. I cannot express enough, in words, the comfort it has given me & how it continues to help me process & grieve this huge loss. i love you all very much. peace be with you this holiday. xo

sleep in heavenly peace...

Yesterday, while I was at work, my precious boy, Puja Shin, passed away in my husband's arms as sweet love messages were whispered in his ear. He was our best boy, a bird boy (wouldn't eat red meat) & as our friend Jimmy would say...a wolf~boy! He taught me many, many things but the best of all was that he taught me how to love him with such a tenderness. He had a gentle heart, a strong character, a mischievous mind & one great spirit. We were his pride. He was our joy...and He was also a momma's boy. We spoiled him oodles & he deserved it. He lived a really good, loved & long life: 2/11/1998 ~ 12/18/2011. He was such a smart & beautiful Abyssinian boy, and He was so good to me. We were blessed to have had him in our lives. He was a special gift. There's a stillness in our home, his home, this home now that he's gone, and a very quiet light. a very quiet light. I miss him so very much. I miss him so much.

silent nights...

i am struggling right now. little things seem so BIG, and big things seem so unimportant. i don't know how to do this. i don't know if i can, yet i know i must. somehow. find the strength. cradle the love. kiss the soul & lift the spirit of my sweet dying boy. soak in every last bit of tenderness every last purr, that i can. & do it right. i must. do him right. i am in a quiet light these days. i am in a quiet light.
