Pet Stories
Do you have a pet? I have two cats and their
names are Alfie, a black cat with a white patch on his stomach
and Alice who is white and grey with a pink nose. Both my cats
have different personalities. Alfie is very loving and Alice
considers herself a princess.
Both cats are teaching me how to love and accept love
unconditionally. LOVE has always been easier for me to give then
to receive. I'd much rather give someone a gift and watch them
excitedly opened their present. On the other hand, when someone
gives me a present, I feel embarrassed.
One day, Alice was sitting on my desk while I was writing my
blog and just looking at me with love in her eyes (my
interpretation). I realized how uncomfortable I felt having her
stare at me. What I wanted to do was pet her and stop feeling
uncomfortable. Instead, I made myself sit there and enjoy the
moment.
That evening, I was out to dinner with a few friends and telling
them how uncomfortable I felt when Alice was staring at me with
love in her eyes. Others at the table started talking about
their pets and how special they were in their lives. Some of the
stories are as follows:
-
Jay was taking a hike in the park with
his dog. Suddenly he tripped over a tree branch and fell.
His dog, Spike, laid down next to him and started barking
until someone came running to see what was happening. The
man checked to see if Jay was alright and called 911. Jay
had broken his ankle and now is perfectly fine. Spike is
Jay's hero.
-
Chris told us how her cat, Sadie, always
sits on the floor next to her while she is working on the
computer. Chris is a technical writer and sometimes
experiences writers block. Sadie being there gives her moral
support to continue working.
Accepting the gift of love, even from a pet,
enriches your life in the following ways:
