My Cat Died
Sadly, last night, my cat died. His brother was eaten by some beastie almost two years ago.
It's hard to see a loved family member depart, but the dignity with which they handle death is inspiring.
We can learn from that dignity both in life and in death. Our agenda must not be self-gain, but all-gain, and we have to pursue this agenda with humility and determination. It isn't the fight that is fun, but the hope that we can make a better world that must form the core of our dignity.
"Courage, my friends; 'tis not too late to build a better world." - Tommy Douglas.
Indeed, courage, my friend, you helped to make this a better world. Thanks for the lesson.
