Yes, it was very sad news to hear, Billie.

But, then I watch the news, and see all the devastation in Haiti, and I am so greatful to have a warm bed, food in my tummy and freezer, heat and air conditioning, a sound roof over my head, and water - with the turn of a faucet, and can reach my doctor at any time with my telephone.

I saw a man on TV today, walking along. A reporter asked him what it was he had in his hand. He said, “It’s a can of peas. It’s all I have left.”

I feel so humbled - and my little furry friend seems so inconsequential - to the real problems in this world.
