Why I Don’t Fish Anymore

“Why I Don’t Fish Anymore” by Alan Hoal Having a loved one pass away is not the only way we can lose someone. Sometimes they move far away or fade out of our life because their life takes them another direction. Just because they’re not gone doesn’t mean, however, that it’s easy to let them leave. This story, by Alan Hoal, is about a pet catfish. And although it’s funny and not necessarily truthful, it does illustrate how a pet running away can hurt.
