You did it this time: I cried with emotion while reading it!
It's not the story itself - it's nature and there is definitely much, much more to animals with their emphatic instincts than we ‘know-it-alls’ give them credit for. Much more than we can even imagine! It's the way you write, your insane ability to touch something through metaphorical means. I take my hat off and almost envy you a little for it! You can trust me (not only) with this statement! What have we learnt? Trust is EVERYTHING!... 😘
