Love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation. And today I've experienced a great lose in my heart. Grief is like the ocean; it comes on waves ebbing and flowing. Sometimes the water is calm, and sometimes it is overwhelming. All we can do is learn to swim. And even if we're apart from the loved ones we lost. In our hearts we'll always be with them. Grief changes us. its not a matter of being changed for the better or worse.. it just changes us. The beauty in life is always there. We just have to look up to find it. My heart feels sore tonight. For when I'm quiet I can still hear my little darlings purr; My cat Tigger died in the arms of the Lord on this brisk November morning. His sweet presence is now with the Lord. How lovely he was. My brothers and I adopted him when I was only six years old. September 28, 1996. I remember the day so clearly. My very first kitten and my heart was filled with such joy that lasted 17 years. My family and I gave Tigger so much love and in return he gave us so much back. "The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit." -Pslams 34:18.
-I miss you Tigger.
