. I
would finally like to officially welcome our newest
subscribers Amy & Kathy. Thank you for clicking on
the free email updates to the McCarty Metro and welcome
to our family.
Now... On to
my final thought for this month...
My life is likely to last
less than 15 years, so any separation from you is likely
to be painful. Please give me time to understand what
you want of me. You can place your trust in me... It is
crucial for my well-being. Don't be angry with me for
long and don't lock me up as punishment. Remember,
you have your work, your friends, your entertainment,
but I have only you. Talk to me. Even if I don't
understand your words, I do understand your voice when
speaking to me. Be aware that however you treat me, I
will never forget it. Before you hit me, before you
strike me, remember that I could hurt you, and yet, I
choose not to bite you. Before you scold me for being
lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might
be bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right food,
I have been in the sun too long, or my heart might be
getting old or weak. Please take care of me when I grow
old. You too, will grow old. On the ultimate difficult
journey, go with me please. Never say you can't bear to
watch. Don't make me face this alone. Everything is
easier for me if you are there, because I love you so.
Take a moment today to
thank God for your pets. Love them, enjoy them, and take good care of
them.
