Loose Ends

Was in a study frenzy when I looked out my window and saw this little thing sitting in a shade out in the backyard. I thought it was strange that it was sitting on the floor not moving. I went out to have a look and realised that it was injured but it managed to fly away.

2 days later I looked out my window and saw it again. Sitting on the same spot looking wet and miserable. I knew I just had to do something! I didn’t want it to end up as cat food. I went out with a towel in hand ready to catch it. It was so weak it could barely run from me. =(

Had to do a quick run to Coles to get some bird food. This is it all fluffed up and looking so miserable!

I don’t know whether I was being naive but I had hoped that it would slowly regain it’s strength and be set free. Sad to say it died the next morning. Right in front of my eyes, I saw it struggling for it’s final few breaths.

I am still quite distraught over it but at least I did what I can.

It’s never easy seeing the passing of a life. Sigh……

I buried it under this tree in my backyard, close to where I found it.

RIP little one.

There’s always a first for everything.

First love.

First kiss.

First car.

First house.

……

Yesterday I ate my very first luxury mooncake.

=p

Not the best mooncake I’ve had but it’s LV!

Mooncake aside. I received a call from mom this morning.

My brother got into an accident. For some reason his car caught on fire and was totaled. People who know me well know that we don’t have a good relationship. As a matter of fact I haven’t had a decent conversation with him since high school and I always thought that I don’t really give a rat’s arse what happened to him.

I really thought so but I was wrong.

He could’ve been killed in that accident. What if he blacked out during impact? What if the seat belt got jammed? He would’ve been trapped in the burning inferno.

Thank goodness he came out fine except for a minor cut on his hand and whiplash.

It made me think of a lot of things.

Life is short. Don’t take anything for granted.

I hope everyone had a happy mid autumn!

I find myself pulling away.

Don’t really know why I’m acting this way, really because I want to be able to feel good about things. I guess I’m just not there yet.

Things were, for once going well. Up until……

Then everything came crashing down.

Don’t know what I’m feeling. So confused.

More than anything I really wish there was someone with me here. Right now.

It’ll be nice to have someone to lean onto once in awhile.
