It's Miss Cookie!

I still think about Cookie a lot, missing her presence in my home...realizing that it's been a long time since she's lived here. The silence here without her is more apparent than before and you notice what is missing and you feel the absence. Every single night, I still think about what it was like to have her here...that I used to take her out for potty at a certain time and I used to plop her on my bed to go to sleep. I couldn't go to sleep without resting my hand on her belly, feeling the rise and fall of her stomach and her irregular heart beat. I memorized it...and when I close my eyes, I can feel it against my hand. I emblazoned that feeling and sound in my mind every night before I went to bed. When I close my eyes, I can see her face and feel her fur when I used to pet her. I imagine her walking around my apartment...even now, six months later, I can still feel her presence...and I don't want to ever let it go.

Maybe the reason I don't know how to move on after someone I love passes away is because I don't want to let it go. I don't want to forget them...the only way I know how to hold on is by doing just that. It is the only thing that gives me comfort...the only way I can feel some kind of peace. All I know is that Cookie came into my life for a reason, and my life has never been the same since...and for that I am so grateful.
