The Warm Sunny Spot

Why hello furry followers and fleshy humans. I've been fairly uninspired to blog this past week. Yesterday was a very sunny and warm day here in Minneapolis. My human left the window by my perch open for me so I was able to enjoy the sun and warm breezes. This has helped to inspire me!

As I was enjoy the simple pleasure of a warm day, watching nature and imagining how yummy those squirrels and sparrows would taste, it made me think of you humans. Almost every day I see my human and others stressed out, running around, and not even realizing how amazing the world is.

When was the last time you stopped and admired a tree? You think I'm crazy, but I'm serious. Trees are amazing, the patterns in the bark, the branches, different styles of leaves, and all the life teaming within the tree. And it's not just trees, all the life and nature around you everyday is remarkable.

Take a moment, think about the nearly infinite number of things that had to occur in the history of the universe to bring you here in this moment of time and to create all the beauty around you. As a cat, with 9 lives, I am ac cutely aware how short each one of those lives is. As humans, you do have a slight advantage in that your one life is longer than one of mine. But, for both of us, in the story of the universe, our time here is a blip. To the cosmos, we come and go without any thought or any consequence.

Regardless of your beliefs, the fact that any of us are here on the beautiful amazing planet at this point in time is a miracle. Take it from me, humans need to be more cat-like. Stop, stare at a tree, look at a squirrel (you don't have to eat it), and take time to enjoy that warm sunny spot.

P.S. Also, pet a cat! It helps reduce stress. =^-^=
