Jot down the first thing that comes to your mind.
Having lost a beloved cat 40 hours ago, jotting down the first thing that comes to my mind won’t be pretty. It’s pretty much a mess.
In some ways, due to the kind of spiritual training I do I am coping better, and I’m grateful for that.
At the end my Guide told me to walk through his energy as I returned to the vet’s room after a much needed (emotion induced) second bathroom break in twenty minutes. As I walked through the door I went very calm. I was so grateful for that.
I’m also able to connect with her, and she with me, and again you can’t bottle that good fortune. If I could I’d give it away free to everyone who wanted it.
Even so, there’s a hole in this house a mile wide, there’s a gap in me, an emptiness, that even three gorgeous cats and my husband can’t fill. It will heal, it has 8 times before and just thinking about her predecessors has always made me smile, she can’t fail to either, she was so wonderful. We talk about them all the time.
For many adults, animals fulfil our lives, especially if you have no children, but even if you do. My parents loved both myself and my brother, but I’m absolutely certain that they often loved the dog more. He wasn’t given to back talk.
You can relax around animals, they know when you need a cuddle. Hito actually tried to stop Amie going down the stairs when she suddenly had a burst of energy and took off faster than I could catch her. It was a definite full on body block. She won.
One of the few things my mentor said that I disagreed with was that humans are the highest intelligence on earth. We’re not by a long chalk.
My cats are and always have been, kind, loving, funny, and they’ve loved this human in a way that is the greatest honour of my life. Animals have a sixth sense, and an emotional sense, that makes ours look feeble.
When did an animal ever start a war? I rest my case.
So no, let’s forget what’s on my mind. If you’ve recently suffered a loss of any kind my heart goes out to you. We will get through it and we have to remember one thing:
We’re hurting like this because we are the luckiest people in the world. We knew them.
