I wanted to take a few minutes this morning to introduce you to a very special lady in my life...Miss Minga. She has been my closest friend and confidante for 17 years now. I am able to tell her things that I cannot tell another human being...and she always has the patience to listen...and NEVER tries to push her own opinions on me. Sometimes, though, I have to say she can be rather demanding...especially in the wee hours of the morn when she wants my company...and she hates to take "no" for an answer. But, it's allowed; she's earned it...because no one has ever been such a loyal and loving friend to me. We've grown old together, my Minga and I. My son hates me to say that we're getting old, but life happens...And, although both of us now a little stiff when we arise, we're dealing with it...because aging is a part of life.

My Very Special Lady
I wanted to take a few minutes this morning to introduce you to a very special lady in my life...Miss Minga. She has been my closest friend and confidante for 17 years now. I am able to tell her things that I cannot tell another human being...and she always has the patience to listen...and NEVER tries to push her own opinions on me. Sometimes, though, I have to say she can be rather demanding...especially in the wee hours of the morn when she wants my company...and she hates to take "no" for an answer. But, it's allowed; she's earned it...because no one has ever been such a loyal and loving friend to me. We've grown old together, my Minga and I. My son hates me to say that we're getting old, but life happens...And, although both of us now a little stiff when we arise, we're dealing with it...because aging is a part of life.
Miss Minga looks like a very stately Queen. I curtsey in The Royal Presence.
ReplyDeleteWow - she is stunning! Who could ask for a better life-mate?
ReplyDeleteI am so glad to meet your soul-mate, Miss Minga. Cats are my totem and I am strongly drawn to all of them. May the Goddess bless and keep you both together for many long years...

my Torrie looks just like her and she is certainly my familiar. She came to me as a stray and after loosing my other tortoise shell I wasn't looking for another one, but my son came home with her and she bit my nose then started sleeping next to my head and I knew she was my special friend for life. She had to find her place with my other cat Gizmo but she soon did and I have 1 of her kittens Gypsy and she is just as loving and wonderful!
ReplyDeleteShe is such a special girl. I rescued her and her 3 siblings from someone who thought it was funny to beat them...they were only babies. She has been a part of my life ever since. We've been through much together. Now that we are getting older, we both have a touch of arthritis and what a sight to see the two of us limping along at times.
