"Live and Let Live" ~ Some times these true and solid statements become so common that they
lose there strength. I feel they are needed now more than ever.

This is Muffin, seventeen years old and has lost a lot of her faculties. Thanksgiving day among all the company and comotion she was in her own little world surfing the floor in the kitchen for the slightest crumb that she could claim as her own.

I don't like for people to tell me I am strong when I am feeling weak and broken.
It doesn't make me feel stronger. It just makes  me feel like they don't understand.
