The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker's family surrounded him.
Shane seemed so calm, patting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on.
A few minutes later, Belker slipped peacefully away. The little boy seemed to accept Belker's death without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a little while after Belker's death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives.
Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up: “I know why.”
Shocked, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next astonished me. I'd never heard a more comforting explanation.
He said, “Everybody can learn how to live a good life, like loving everybody and being nice, right?” The fouryearold continued, “Well, animals already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay so long.”
作者对名叫Belker的狗进行了安乐死。此时,作者和狗的主人都很悲痛。然而一个四岁的孩子对生命的独特见解让作者感到吃惊并深感安慰。
