Interesting

I’ve realised that a lot of the answers I write to the daily questions show the impact of my past in my life.

Spiritually this is something that needs to be recognised and eradicated. I have slipped a bit I admit.

Reality check

We have no children but we have within us all the love of parents that was looking for a purpose. That purpose has been rescuing cats.

Because we’re spiritual thinkers animals are not lesser beings, they’re equal beings. The people who tell you that cats particularly are not affectionate are entirely wrong. However, as the old story goes, a dog will come back to be beaten again and again, they’re faithful to their own disadvantage, a cat will not.

If your cat is unaffectionate look at yourself. You can’t fool them.

Ours are precious to us. Until recently they were our only family. Yet having my family back and a borrowed daughter and her family, hasn’t diminished the love for the cats one iota. The heart is infinite. We’ve had 12 cats so far and they’re all my favourite. As are all my family. Even a cake lover who thinks he couldn’t possibly be important.

So the reality is that Amie became very ill in January and after a horrific ride, we lost her 11 days ago and counting. I can always tell you the exact day, date, and time we lost them all.

I was full on nursing, even keeping the phone on at night to check the Ring camera every time I woke up. Going out for short periods only.

As many of you will know, when that intensity lifts you wilt mentally.

Mulling

I’ve been thinking for a long time that I need to give this blog one or more specific focuses. I know specific and a plural don’t belong in the same sentence (🤣), my bad, but there are areas of life such as being female, ageing, spiritual thinking, that are all so important.

Spiritual thinking can offer a 180 degree turn around in the way you look at and react to life.

So, having allowed myself to lose it, I am now taking myself by the scruff of the neck and giving myself a good talking to, whilst reminding myself that this introspection is normal at such a time, and repeating to myself what I would say to others.

I’m so sensible – occasionally!
