Two Years

Today marks the two year anniversary of the passing of my sweet kitty Tiger. She was the world to me and her passing was one of the hardest things I had to go through. I have already talked about this on the blog so I won't do so again but I wanted to share something that always makes me think of her:

About a year ago I was having a pretty hard day and I was in the middle of cleaning the house, more specifically I was cleaning the bathroom where you litter box used to be (I know real sweet) anyway I just started missing her and all the comfort that she brought to me when I was feeling sad, when all of a sudden this James Taylor song come on my ipod and I had to just sit and listen and cry. Now whenever it plays I think of her or whenever I am having a hard day I can play it and it is like she is right there with me.

So here are the lyrics to the James Taylor song in honor of the best feline friend a person could have:

You've Got A Friend lyrics

When your down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, whoa nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest nights.
You just call out my name,
And you know where ever I am
I'll come running, oh yeah baby
To see you again.

Winter, spring , summer, or fall,
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You've got a freind.

If the sky above you
should turn dark and full of clouds
and that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud
And soon I will be knocking upon your door.
You just call out my name and you know where ever I am
I'll come running to see you again.

Winter, Spring, summer or fall
All you got to do is call
And I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?
People can be so cold.
They'll hurt you and desert you.
Well they'll take your soul if you let them.
Oh yeah, but don't you let them.
You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again.
Oh babe, don't you know that,

Winter Spring summer or fall,
Hey now, all you've got to do is call.
Lord, I'll be there, yes I will.
You've got a friend.
You've got a friend.
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend.
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend.
You've got a friend.



I miss you Tig.
