yet another futile attempt...


dunno wot has happened..am not being able to access my blog for quite a few days now (even now they arent letting me view it, though they are okay with me writing a new post!weird!)

..anyway, posting after quite a long time, yeah! i had been busy but then, i wouldn't pass the buck by just that excuse..actually didnt quite feel like writing..temperamental me! whatever..
yesterday morning found a baby pigeon lying severly injured in our staircase..heard that two cats literally tried tearing it apart..it was badly injured..i have dealt with cats & dogs before, so am quite at ease when it comes to handling them but this was a little different..anyway, with the help of the granny next next door, managed to put it in a basket & then took it to the nearest animal clinic..
they said one of it's wings had been broken & the nearby region was wounded badly but above all the poor creature was in tremendous shock.. they performed some dressing & asked me to feed it & give the medicines..i brought it back & made a bed for it..after 10 minutes of contemplation, i gingerly picked it up & put it there..the whole day was spent thinking how i can keep it, (as those people had said it might never be able to fly again), as i have so many cats at home, maybe i could put it inside some cage (though i didnt like dat idea much!)..anyway i thought God wanted me to be friends with birds too, so it might have been his way of offering me a gift!
..was proved wrong this morning when i found that the little baby had passed away...
i just dont understand what's the point of all this??? as in, y do i have to be exposed to such experiences over & over & over again, where i would come across a severely sick creature & try my best to cure it & see it die????? once, a poor puppy died on my lap jus 5 minutes before i reached the hospital...y?y?y?
am i wrong in loving them that i would be punished in this way so many times?if God really wants me to take care of them then y on earth cant they live & grow up hale & hearty??wot have i done to deserve all this??

..hope i had an answer...

Hey look at it this way atleast u helped the little bird attain some comfort before death and maybe it was good in a way coz if he had lived on and not been able to fly he wud ve lead a painfully restricted life so God liberated the poor soul!!! U did ur part but maybe what happened was for the best

i think u r right, dear but somehow it really feels horrible to see someone just pass away without u being able to do something..death, of loved ones is always so painful, u know..

true!!!it does death always is painful to those it leaves behind... but then again sumtimes as maybe in this case we hold on too tightly maybe in fear of our own pain....
