There was once a tiger-striped cat. This cat died a million deaths, and lived a million lives, and in those lives, various people owned him. None of those people he cared for. This cat was not afraid of death. One life, the cat became a stray cat, which meant it was free. And it met a white female cat. They became mates, and lived together. Time passed, the white cat passed away of old age. And the tiger- striped cat cried a million times. Eventually, the cat died again. But this time, it didn't come back to life. Keiko Nobumoto
About This Quote

Once upon a time, there was a tiger-striped cat. This cat died a million deaths, and lived a million lives, and in those lives, various people owned him. None of those people he cared for. This cat was not afraid of death.

One life, the cat became a stray cat, which meant it was free. And it met a white female cat. They became mates, and lived together.

Time passed, the white cat passed away of old age. And the tiger- striped cat cried a million times. Eventually, the cat died again.

But this time, it didn't come back to life. This is not to say that death is always an end. It is to say that even when death is certain, we should still try our best to live life righteously; because even if we fall short of our hopes and dreams, at least we lived our lives with dignity and grace .
