I guess I've just been thinking today, about stuff. My cat came back from the vet's with two shaved patches on either side of his rib cage, they told us he has cancer. It's so weird, cos we've had him for almost 15 years, and now, it's becoming even more apparent that he's running out of time. I know we all are, every last creature on earth, you could smile and say "we are born dying." It's true. People might say he's only a cat, but I don't believe that there's any 'only' about it, we're 'only' human; I personally don't think that you can put a value on life like that. It always used to (and still does) upset me greatly whenever my father squashed anything like a wasp, it always felt like a horrible chill came over me, and for a moment, I wondered where the wasp had been in its short life. What gets me a lot is this value of life concept, Hitler believed that certain people were inferior, they died, there was no remorse behind his actions, and yet when I step on a bug I feel awful, how could someone live with taking away so many lives?

My cat is amazing, he really, really is. Growing up with two children, he's learnt to be so tollerant. While some cats can be very vicious, he purrs when you hug him, it's like some kind of comfort when you're in tears to have a furry pillow to cry into, and start purring. He was there through everything, from my parents' divorce, and moving to this God-forsaken city, to problems with my family.

I often feel tempted to think of life as a long train journey. You hop on, totally unaware of where you'll go, sit next to people, talk a lot, until they have to get off, or switch lines. Sometimes people tell you that they'll be getting off for good, and there's nothing you can do about it, other times they just go. Sometimes you're the one to get off and leave behind, I wonder what hurts more...
I know a lot of people have got off or switched lines when I didn't want them to, and I wish that I could have them back, but instead, I have to carry on on my train journey. Because life is breif, no matter how long.
