"Aurora" or "Dawn"
I do not think I blogged about my new pet goldfish. I bought her in mid-September. I asked on Cathinfo for advice about a name. Someone said to call her "Aurora" or "Dawn". I thought that was nice, so now she is named "Aurora" or "Dawn."
I have had bad luck with fish in the past, with them often dying. I hope that is not the case with "Aurora". I have one fish. One is enough. The pet store owner said in my tank I should not have more than one goldfish so one it is.
She swims back and forth. I purchased a set of Greek columns for her to swim around and hide under so there will be a prop. She swims for me, but often she hides behind the heater, which is currently the only obstacle in the tank. I hope soon she will hide behind the columns and look like a pretty little girl. When the columns arrive I will take another picture and put it on my blog.
Sweet "Aurora". How I love to watch you eat the little flakes I offer to you. How you swim around so swiftly to give thanks to the good God for creating you. Only for a moment, only for a moment, but your life in finitude is more devoted to Our Lord than the life of Saint Francis in infinity. Because as a fish everything you ever did and ever will do will be in accordance with the will of God but even the greatest of Saints, except for Our Lady, is guilty of sin, so their lives were not completely conformed to the will of the good God like the life of "Aurora."
