Years ago I lost a beloved cat .... some time afterward I walked into my bedroom and my foot brushed a slipper on the floor -- I automatically bent down to pick up the cat ... it was such a constant in my life ... when I realized what I was doing the experience of loss hit me again & I sat down on the floor and cried ... |

A virtual candle, then, for all the blessed animals we've loved and lost, but who remain with us in the brush of a slipper or a faint shadow at the front window or a small rubber pointy ball that somehow appears where it could no longer be. I am bitterly happy for the reminders and brief connections with those who wait for us.

Yesterday a Malaysian airplane, flying from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, has been shot down during the flight above Ukrain territory. All of it's 298 passengers and crew are dead; 192 of them are Dutch. Very sad.

More than sad. A great number of those who died were researchers on their way to an AIDS conference.

Tomorrow is a day of National Mourning in the Netherlands for the 193 Dutch passengers of the Malaysian airplane that was shot down. http://edition.cnn.com/2014/07/18/wo...ane-questions/
The first bodies of the victims will come home tomorrow. President Obama has signed the condoleance register at the Dutch embassy in Washington. |

Too many lives were lost. A number of Malaysians (including all the crew members) were on board the plane as well. My thoughts and prayers go out to the families and friends of the deceased.
