Epilogue

As I reflect on everything that's happened— all the tough times, all the challenges I've faced— I never expected my life to take such a profound turn in the end. Now, as I ponder each of those moments, I realize that hope and love truly exist, but you simply need patience...
Or lucky...
Or both...

Although I was young and left at a very tender age in almost all of those experiences, growing older in the last one made me realize many things. Despite the pain and suffering that I endured, there were small moments of joy and happiness in nearly all of them.

If I had another chance to start all over again, right from the beginning, I would have chosen the exact same path once more. I wouldn't change a single thing. Everything that led me there made me truly appreciate the bliss I felt in the end.

I wish I could see the smiling faces again, though...

See them smiling again...
One last time...

No, I didn’t want to visit them...
I wasn't asking for another chance...

I just wanted to check if everyone was alright...
I wanted to see if they were smiling again...

I hope they are happy...
As happy as they made me feel...
And that they keep smiling forever...

I think it's time to go...
They are calling for me...

And I know there are no do-overs...

But I don't mind that at all...
I already had many of them...

But in the end...
It’s true what they say...

                                                              

                                                  That cats have 9 lives...
