Pets come and go, just as people come and go in our lives. That's juz life. everyone's juz passing through the planet that we call "Earth" and our home..
Mel has left us on 20 Nov 2009. It's been 2+ mths but the feeling of missing him never stops and never ceases. It's juz that feeling of emptiness from his presence that dwells in the house despite his physical presence no longer being there.
My bro came back for his hols end of last nov and just 2 days ago, we sent him off back to Australia for his 3rd year at medical school. That feeling of "lacking someone/something" came back into our little humble house. Even though he wasnt at home 24 hrs of the time while he's here, but the ambience of the house is just different from the time when he was here. The house just felt that it was lacking someone once again. I guess that it is in such times when you really learn to appreciate the presence of someone or something in your lives. As the saying goes, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder"... I guess this is wat it really means....=)
