"You don't need to know someone to be affected by their actions."

I just read that sentence and thought that was an awesome statement! Yesterday, I saw a cat that had just been hit by a car on HWY 6. Not to give too many details, but it was still alive when I saw it, and the situation completely caught me off guard. It was raining and I was all dressed up to go somewhere. All of these crazy thoughts crossed my mind. The main one being, "Should I turn around and get it out of the street?" It absolutely broke my heart. This cat, that I don't know and had never seen, just touched me. I did turn around, BUT I didn't stop the car because it was evident that the cat was dead. And I was afraid of being rear-ended by another car and getting killed trying to rescue a dead cat. I said a little prayer and told myself that there was essentially nothing I could do about it. So, I didn't need to know that cat to be affected by its death. After all I am only human :)

AND to Andrew's family member that says I have no compassion, eat that you old bitty!
