My bestfriend

I was going through a rough time in my life. Almost to the point where I thought life couldn't get any worse. My friends wouldn't listen, my parents always seemed so distant, after the divorce. My ex boyfriend and I had a very rough break up. I felt like... No one understood me. And each morning I would wake up, I would just feel so lonley. It must have been a sign from God.. because on the day that I planned to stop living, and just give up.. I took a walk. To try to find ONE more reason to live. But I just couldn't. So as I was walking back home, from my hopeless walk... I came across a kitten. He looked as if he had been through as much as I had. In that moment, I didn't feel so alone. I felt connected to this feline. I felt like I had found my bestfriend, my saviour. The hope I was searching for had finally been found. I took the cat home, which was hard, because the cat wouldn't come to me. But finally, it gave in, and trusted me. Which made me feel beter than I have in months. When I got home I went up to my room, and just laid there with my new found kitten. My mother came up to my room and handed me a letter from the college I dreamed of always going to.. And it was an acceptance letter. The next day, I became friends with the man I am married to now. I started to see a new life, and ever since that one day. The one day that I found my precious kitten.. my life has been renewed. And which is why, my kitten, Miracle, is named Miracle. I love my cat, my bestfriend, my savior. MY HOPE WAS FOUND!
