The insensitive Covid-19 took life away from Chilean writer Luis Sepúlveda.
He died only a few hours ago in Oviedo, Spain, after fighting for six weeks against the virus, that he caught probably during a trip to a literary festival in Portugal.

I called the virus "insensitive", because I think it's wrong to call a virus "cruel". Illnesses have no feelings, obviously.
Luis Sepúlveda had deep feelings and every person, who has read at least one of his books, has surely perceived them through his prose.

I'd like to remember Luis Sepúlveda with this picture I quickly composed, as my humble tribute, inspired to one of his novels,
"The Story of A Seagull and The Cat Who Taught Her To Fly".

It might be considered a book for children, but, as in other similar cases, it can be inspirational for adults.
It's a tale about love, friendship, commitment and honour.
It is also about learning to believe in yourself.
A Cat, a Seagull, an impossible task…Caught up in an oil spill, a dying seagull scrambles ashore to lay her final egg and lands on a balcony, where she meets Zorba, a big black cat from the port of Hamburg. The cat promises the seagull to look after the egg, not to eat the chick once it’s hatched and – most difficult of all – to teach the baby gull to fly.
