Writing is one of my lifelong loves. It has always given me greater insight into my myself. I write here for the simple joy it brings to express how I feel and what I have learned. I hope you gain some value, and even if you don’t, I appreciate that you stopped by.
MY CAT GOT A HAIRCUT AND I GOT A HEALING
As I sit here this morning, writing while eating my breakfast, having just dropped my precious cat Cleo off at the vet for her first ever haircut to remove matted fur; my face streams with tears. My voice wails with grief. My heart breaks with anger. For this every day occurrence, of taking a pet to the vet, has created a deep opening in me, to feel what my nervous system had not yet felt safe enough to feel, when something similar happened.
