Oh, please forgive me - I killed a possum tonight driving home. So awful of me to murder one of God's creations.

I will need to plant a tree this Fall in honor of the poor dahrling.

Murder is an intentional act Mustang, this was an accident. You can plant the tree and it would be a grand gesture but you didn't do anything wrong or wretched...

Oh Mustang, please don't be so hard on yourself. It was an accident. Maybe the possum was rabid, and you saved another creature from getting bit and contaminated. You never know...sounds cliche, but there might

Mustang, we a like minded. I hit an Armadillo and I felt terrible. There was two of them which made it harder. I was thinking about the one who was there with him/her.
I pray for all of God's creations whenever I pass a dead animal on the side of the road.
Your idea of planting a tree is honorable. I hope you don't ever have to plant another one.
Hugs

Mustang, Please don't be harsh and do try to put this out of your mind. It's so understandable to be upset & feel like Crap after running over an animal, but it WAS an Accident totally.
Too, it could have been worse, a few years ago a friend of ours swerved to miss a deer, (Deer got away unharmed) but, after a lifeflight to the hospital 2 days later she lapsed into a coma & passed away. Yet, we left behind do not dispise or blame the deer population, it was an accident.
Cheer up Sweeie & plant the tree, I feel there must be a critter Heaven & that little fella's there & his friend learned a lesson about the highway. Feel Better Soon, "Hugs"

You are such a gentle soul, Mustang. I am thinking of the many people that would only concern themselves with any damage that might have happened to the car.

Plant that tree and know that you have done something positive for the world.

Peace, my friend.

It will grow up to be a beautiful tree, planted out of love and compassion. What a great gesture on your part, Mustang! God Bless you!
