My India trip was  also filled with heartache. Couple of days before returning to US (on 10th May 2013), we lost our beloved Penny .  She died of natural causes and is buried near the Chenab river at  Jammu, foothills of Ma Vaishodevi. Her loss has hit all of us terribly,  specially my parents.   People who ever lost a pet, like a loved one can  understand the heartache it is. She was 13 years old. All four of us  were present and Rishi did her burial. She was so happy and active when I  first saw her back in April, excited jumping and running around. Waking  me in middle of night, asking the food I bought her from US and just  being her naughty self. I miss her terribly. I came across a text from  Plato where he said, "We consider death as evil when in reality we don't  know. It may be the greatest blessing" .    I like to think it that way. She  was blessed and is in a far happier place now. May her soul rest in  peace.   Here is the last picture of her which I took in...
