Several

Which animal would you compare yourself to and why?

A Cow

Because I think about things, ruminate a lot, and quite often find it takes time to digest life.

A Meerkat

Because I have the reputation that I will be moseying along, then suddenly something captures my attention. My head snaps up, I lean my neck at a weird angle, and my focus is laser-like. I have an old photo of me doing exactly that and it’s positively weird.

A Flamingo

Because since I’ve been having the Emmett Technique, a muscle release therapy, I can stand on one leg. Prior to that I couldn’t balance on two legs, or walk in a straight line.

A Zebra

Because my name is Debra I was called Debra the Zebra by the not-as-witty-as-they-thought school bullies.

An Elephant

Because once I actually make up my mind you won’t shift me. Which doesn’t happen often, I’m a Gemini, always in two minds and can see the pros and cons of most situations and agree with both. So you won’t see the elephant side often.

A Dove

Because I do, most sincerely, believe in the power of love to make the world a better place and bring peace to all.

Menagerie

So I think a lot about peace. I stand up like a meerkat trying to see into the future, to see if the light won. I try to remain sensible and balanced about life. I don’t tease nor do I use cruel words.

Although I have an elephant’s determination to walk this path without deviation, if I’m honest I could stomp on a few world leaders if they appeared on that path. I’d feel guilty afterwards though because that’s not who I am. Which reminds us that it’s important not to allow evil to change you.

Let’s stand together as one and save this world from the corruption of absolute power. Maintaining our balance even when events do seek to knock us off course. Creating that future we want to see for all. Thinking about only peace and the family of humanity. And ask a dove to fly close to God for us with a prayer for help.

Best Love
