So I’m allergic to cats. But my roommates have this adorable black cat. I manage.
The problem is he loves me. Like so much. He thinks I’m his best friend. I sit down and he tries to get in my lap. I do chores and he’s purring and rubbing himself on my legs. This little guy is forcing me to spend dozens of dollars on allergy pills just cuz I don’t have the heart most of the time to shoo him off.
One night I dreamed a dream.
As I was walking along the beach with my employer.
Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
One belonging to me and one to Daddy Bezos.
After the last scene of my life flashed before me,
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that at many times along the path of my life,
especially at the very highest volume and peak seasons,
there was only one set of footprints.
This really troubled me, so I asked the Daddy Bezos about it.
"Jeffrey, you said once I decided to follow you,
You'd walk with me all the way.
But I noticed that during the heaviest volume and peak seasons of my life,
there was only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why, when I needed a raise the most, you would leave me."
He whispered, "My lowly associate, I love you and will never leave you
Never, ever, during your overtime and injuries.
When you saw only one set of footprints,
It was then that I climbed upon your back."
