companions and carers.
by zeb inyesterday i had the duty of care to take our feline companion of 20 years to the vet to be euthanized.. i took a tin of his fav tuna and gave him a last meal at the vets to settle him as the needle and medication did its work.. he died peacefully and in no pain.
my wife and i buried him in the garden next to a another older moggie.. i had the duty to email this sad news to the family who have largely grown up with him.. i sat in my back room and cried bitterly.
i will miss him terribley and his head rubbs him checking on me once i was in bed and all his ways.. sleep well..... time for another cry..

voting
by zeb inwe have elections coming up in australia.. what is the official jw line on voting please.. i recall at least two years back at a 'service meeting' and elder saying from the platform that the society had directed that voting was now a 'conscience matter'.
this was mentioned and done with in seconds and reference made to a notice to go up on the cong notice board.. the notice was tiny.
i wish i had obtained a copy of it.. so this new light was deliberatly kept very dim.. what is the 'party-line' now please..

He is the hearer of prayer..
by zeb inwhat are my chances of getting the elders to hold regular congregation prayers for me with suspect cancer.
