Requiem for a one. |2:56 PM|
A friend of mine's most rebellious, most iconclast pet died last night. I had little to offer in comfort other than sympathy, but I did my best. I'm glad she's doing alright on the grief front, she's a tough trooper. I'm sure she'll be okay, she has friends near her.
Someone taught me a long time ago that one of the best ways to express a sudden, almost shock-like, emotional reaction through text is an "Oh, " followed by a name, and then a short, perfectly honest statement on your feelings. I use it so rarely, yet it is a perfectly genuine statement and expression, that over time it hasn't lost it's power to me. I wonder if it's as effective on other folks as it was on me. I truly hope so.
