As I was walking home, I heard a meow.
I was walking by the busy road.
I walked on.
and on...
I heard another meow.
I saw a tiny black think covered with mud and grass, crawling.
The cord is still there, meaning a just-born.
It was freaking cold.
like ice.
Backtracked and there I found the first meow.
ice cold like the 2nd meow.
I placed them in a plastic bag and roamed around for sign of any mother cats.
Placed them at somewhere nearby but safer, further from the road.
I hope the mother will find them soon.
I hope they are not abandoned.
And if they are, I don't know how my mum is going to cope with me mothering another 2 kittens.
I'll head there tml morning and if they are still there, I'll smuggle them home to bath them and feed them milk. keep them in a cardboard box and wrap them with my class tees and house tees. Keep them warm and full for the moment and hide them at the void deck.
Every life, no matter how tiny, needs to be treated with care and regconised as a deserving life.
It starts from here.
to the innocent victims in wars.
to the cambodian kids and farmers stepping on mines.
to your crying neighbourkid whom parents are still figuring out what they want in life in a violent manner.
I always here this kid from opposite block crying and shouting for his parents to stop fighting.
I have this nephew whom mother have totally no interest in bringing him up or caring for him at all.
Everyone of the owner of these lives, I want to hug them, stroke them, bring them food, bring them blanket, candies, jokes, bedtime stories. I want to make them feel better. And I want it so badly. Every moment I spend in physical and mental comfort, I want to do something for these people cause they are hurting when I am not.
Everyone needs to be loved. Cause from there, we feel our value.
And from our value, we get the strenght to love the other.
And it is through this cycle that suddenly, life makes sense.
It frustrates me to see so many people protecting their comfort by blinding themselves from others' sufferings, which they may so easily eliminate.
