To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure.— Albus Dumbledore (J.K. Rowling)
Those who know me will argue that I have used this forum improperly to glorify my cat, Minchy. My belief is that Minchy does provide us a lesson on Life. As a tiny kitten not more than 2 weeks old, she spent a week in ditch crying for help without food and water until we found her.
The malnutrition has had lasting impact on her bone structure, her spine, shoulder blades and pelvis are deformed and since her ribcage constricts her lungs, the slightest exertion causes her breathing difficulty. She must be in pain, but I have never known her to let on except once. She has more joie de vivre than Paris Hilton. Minchy teaches me, that it’s living with dignity that the tough one not death. It’s in this context that I asked you to read Shabry’s story.
