I believe this cat contributed to a larger structure of my routine happiness; a stability which ultimately enabled me to thrive here today. Below are my takeaways from the experience –
- dairy is a reason to be alive
- if I don’t think I’ll enjoy something, communicate that early
- you don’t have to participate just bc everyone else is
- for pleasure, defining time limits is usually unnecessary
- passions are what your known for by others
- opinions are what others may love you for
- my body will fluctuate over the years
- i’m going to have different seasons
- odds of a scenario happening once increase with each iteration of the game
- take some risk if it’ll fulfill yr life
- just bc I’m shit at something today doesn’t mean I can’t improve
- tunnel visioning may be both a strength and lead to your fall
Ethel these last months caught so many creatures, birds included. She would trot them inside so proudly. At 15, she played in her final hunt. It’s reasonable that in life I will have my own pain, such as when a loved one experiences suffering. At an end date, I choose to believe the suffering for them ends. While living, I may as well attempt to fulfill my suggestively attainable dreams. I set those targets after all.
I do think she would agree that her life was satisfactory.
I do think she felt the love I had for her.
