A Loss

I went back to work today, and at the moment I'm feeling extremely tired. The morning began with some sadness since Blue (our Betta fish) passed away today. I was going to feed him his morning meal when I noticed that he was at the bottom of the fish bowl. I wanted to burst into tears because we've had him as a member of our family for months now, and I've gotten used to watching him when I cook or talking to him when I was frustrated with something. (He was situated on the dinner table.) My heart is a tad heavy tonight with grief of losing such a good pet who brought so much light into our life.
