'Sihi' Encounters!

The most beautiful things in life happen in the most unexpected ways and time! Today, as I was driving, I was forced to a halt by what seemed like a bundle of wool, but with tiny legs, in the middle of the road. I quickly pulled over and grabbed it before it got run over by some vehicle. When I took a closer look at it I saw that it was a puppy, barely a few weeks old. I took her home, gave her a warm sponge cleaning and fed her. For now, I've named her 'Sihi', thats 'sweet' in Kannada.

I don't know what I am going to do with her - I know that I cannot keep her for long. Losing Casper has brought me closer to Spooky, more than before. And I don't see myself having the courage to face another cycle through attachment and bereavement and, more importantly, I do not have the time it takes to nurture a pup at this point in my life. I haven't yet thought about how she's going to be cared for tomorrow, when I shall be gone the day and I had better think of something by tomorrow morning. For now, I am just looking at getting past the night....
