The Real Folks Blue (part II)

Just finished watching the last episode of Cowboy Bebop for the second time. Spike told Jet a nice story which I thought should be shared--

There was a tiger-striped cat who died a million times and came back to life a million times. Each time he was cared by an owner whom he did not care for. One day, the tiger-striped cat got to know a white cat, and they both fell in love with each other. Years later, the white cat died. The tiger-striped cat cried a million times, and then died. He never came back to life again.

Watching it for the second time, I still can't really understand why Spike went to die, though he said he went to see if he was really alive. But now I understand that it's good that I don't understand, because you have to be hurt that deep to feel the pain.

That's why, just let it go.

waaa... sure is a touching story. I wouldn't want to come back to live again if I were that cat too.
