Sins And Regret

I have just ran over a cat. The cat came out of no where and i just could not stop in time. I was filled with regret when i heard a sickening thud for a split second. From my rear mirror, i can see the cat struggling for a second. I immediately stopped and came out from the car. But, it did not move anymore. My worst fear had came true. I ran to the cat and found it motionless. There was blood coming out from the cat. I am sure that the cat is dead. As i stood there, i put the cat in a bag and brought it to a nearby river. Prayed for it and then threw it into the river. My heart was filled with remorse and regret. Never have i thought that i would kill a living thing or take away a life. Never... I did what i felt was right and logical. The cat has no collar. But it was a living thing, a possible mother or a companion for others. Although it was unintentional, i am still the one responsible for the death of that cat. This sin or burden shall be mine to carry forever. It will never go away and it shall never be forgotten.
