Daily Drawing No. 2

Cookie’s Goodbye

Digital Drawing in Procreate

A promise is a promise. Although I’m a bit late getting today’s Daily Drawing posted, here I am anyway.

Cookie was the kitten we were welcoming into our home. Just as I was getting her room ready, Cookie started having cascading seizures. The right thing to do was to let Cookie go. She was so scared in her last hours. We loved her too much to let her stay that way. So in the time I’d normally be working on new things, I was instead saying goodbye to a sweet furry soul.

This is a reminder to me and to anyone who sees this: It’s OK to fail sometimes. I saw little Cookie in my imagination snuggled up with our beautiful silver cat, Scout. Scout needs a friend, and he will have one. We thought it would be Cookie. That wasn’t to be.

Anyway, I’m posting this evening from a place of vulnerability, but also from love. I want you who are reading this to know that all things are still possible to you. Some things you will wish for and truly believe in, but they still won’t come to pass. Remember always that no matter what heartbreak happens in your life, you can always go on to welcome infinite expansion back in.

All is love, and all is good. It’s OK to cry and to fail. And it’s wonderful to dream again.
