Praying

Ok so there's a lot of famine going round in the world. There is a lot of HIV too and people suffering from full blown AIDS. And we should pray for them. We cannot forget the people who somehow have found themselves all alone.... they too are in pain. But cannot I make a simple prayer to God... please look after my Bagheera, he has had surgery, please watch over him. Figaro, James, Claude and Ray.... you will understand. You know that those who are close to my hear are held steadfastly so. And so my simple prayer... help me in this, there are things in life where medicine draws the line. So we turn to you, to God and to the ones who were once here but who are now in His dimension. Please

So now I have my own slinky black cat. That probably makes me a witch. Good. I won't be a cruel witch, but for all those who cross my path on a very wrong foot, beware, because the night skies dumped a black cat on me. And I am so thankful. I think I needed (selfishly) another four feet in the house. It's difficult to explain, but cats are so much love in feline persona. So now I need a broom, potions, and a crystal ball. I'll get around to that, and it's almost Halloween. Come to it, maybe Bagheera is a sign from the heavens. Whatever, I'm going to make sure he has five star accomodation food and service. I am just thinking who on my hit list is going to be turned into a toad. Hmmmm I am spoilt for choice really, Malta doesn't need many toads. But maybe one here and there......

learn to be lonely

Sometimes, when pain is strong you are all alone. Sometimes when pain is at its strongest, you actually want to be alone. And sometimes something happens and makes you realise that you are so submerged in pain that you have learnt to be streetwise enough to hide it. And other times you tend to look at other people and ask, what star was I born under? Why not a magic star? And you see your life from yonder and wonder where the yonder star found itself. And you realise that you may have been born with a sentiment de vide which is difficult to shake off. And then.. you also realise that you have learned to be lonely, and for you it is a way of life. And the human brain is a wonderful thing, it adapts itself to the situation... you learn to laugh and cry in your loneliness...and you learn to love to be lonely.
