It had been windy and rainy all this evening. Finally about 1:00AM it cleared enough for me to be able to see the moon and a couple stars. I thought that it was too bad that I couldn't see the stars like I could in the country. They were all washed out by the city lights. Kind of like how the "lights" of this world drown out the "Light of the world". And like how we have to leave the city to see the stars better, we have to leave the world behind to see God better.

GREAT comparisons, my friend.

Tonight when I was out walking Smokey, I realized that the "star" I saw last night was actually a planet (Jupiter)!

How is he doing at this point? I am so sorry that you are going through this sadness.

Actually Smokey is doing quite well. He's almost the normal self he was back in August.

I am glad to hear that. I hope that his last days will be relatively pain free and happy ones for his sake and for his owners' sakes.
