My Journals (2)

I recently lost a good friend, his name was Neptune, he was a beautiful Tonkinese cat with gorgeous blue eyes.  He was our head cat, and took his position very seriously. He often bullied his brother Merlin off their favorite roost, and he tormented little Bacchus like most big brothers do to the youngest.  I miss his grumpy voice and the weight of him when he plunked himself down on my stomach.  Every time I have a cold drink now it is strange to actually get to drink it by myself. I miss you you big lug, when you run into the other animals that I belonged to tell them hi and how much I still miss them. I read something recently that brought me much comfort it was,"Until one has loved an animal, part of their soul remains unawakened".  Thank you for the love you brought into my life, because of you I am a better person.  Good journey my friend. Love mom.

Today I take the time to be present for the people in my life.  I admire the sunrise on my to work.  I watch the colors of the sunsets. I  take the time to say a prayer of gratitude every morning and every night before I go to sleep. I do not have to be busy all the time, it is ok to just do nothing sometimes.  I take the time to teach my granddaughter to be kind to all animals and to appreciate nature. I take the time to watch Shark Tales for the umpteenth time because she loves it so much. I say I love you often.  I say I am sorry when I am wrong. Today I take the time to make friends because I was just to busy before. Today I do not rush so much, I try to enjoy every day. I try to be of service because I was just to busy before.  I am grateful for all of the second and third chances I have been given, I want to do things right in this half of my life.  I take the time to smell the morning air and to feel the softness.  Today life is good.
