It's Christmas and we all should be happy. Maybe we should, but many of us won't or can't.
I could be happy, but I can't help myself from thinking of all our little pure souls that left us in these past years.
I won't name any of them because I could leave one behind and it would unfair. So I prefer to think of all of them.
And I won't be happy because I will think of those poor people who will have to spend their Christmas at a veterinarian clinic because one of their pets is unwell or needed an emergency visit. I know what that means, I was there before, I know what it feels like to have to spend a holiday in a clinic, when everybody else is at home celebrating that day and someone else is hoping that their furry friend will make it. I was there before.
And I won't be happy because inevitably a pet will go to the Rainbow Bridge on Christmas day, leaving their guardians in deep and unrepairable desperation. Those guardians won't ever have a merry Christmas again, every year this day will renew their pain.
It's Christmas, but I am not able to feel happy at all.
Merry Christmas to everybody!
