Having said what I just did...very much a start and nothing more.
Being. Nothingness. Family Matters.
---------------------------------------------------------
My mother professed atheism but believed
that the God in whom she did not believe
existed strictly to torture her.
She may have been right: it may
be true that God gives us not what we want
but what we need.
Or put another way: Be careful
what you wish for. If
you need torture to ask for help,
you shall have it.
She did not ask. She endured,
demanding, never asking.
She met her death proud,
vainglorious, and scared to death.

"Sometimes the veil between human intelligence and animal intelligence
wears very thin--then one experiences the supreme thrill of keeping a cat,
or perhaps allowing oneself to be owned by a cat."--Catherine Manley
