Today is Thanksgiving but today became a sad day for me.  My little guinea pig, Rocky died.  While I know that I have much to be thankful for, my heart is heavy from the loss of this little guy.  He was only 4 years old, middle aged, not elderly in gp years.   He came into my life when I was in great despair and in great disrepair and I am grateful for his time with me, short though it was.  He made me feel like I was capable of giving love and deserving of receiving it.
