In this more and more crazy world, take care of people who are dear to you every day, and don’t forget to tell them how much you love them.

My Master writes:
“Desert memory. After a few hours on the trail in the Mauritanian desert, I saw an old herdsman traveling with his family. His young wife and his mother-in-law rode camels; his sons and daughter were on donkeys. The group carried with them everything essential to survival – and therefore to life. The sight of them gave me the impression that I had encountered a contemporary of Muhammad. Burning white sky, scattered, scorched trees, uprooted thorn bushes blown by the desert wind across unending vistas of orange sand… the spectacle evoked the geographical and psychological background of the Koran, in the turbulent period of camel caravans, nomad encampments, and clashing desert tribes.
I thought of the lands of Israel, Judaea and Samaria, of Jerusalem and Bethlehem, of Nazareth and the Sea of Galilee. Places where the sun bakes men’s heads, desiccates their bodies, afflicts their souls with thirst. Places that generate a yearning for oases where water flows cool, clear and free, where the air is balmy and fragrant, where food and drink are abundant. The afterlife suddenly struck me as a counterworld invented by men exhausted and parched by their ceaseless wanderings across the dunes or up and down rocky trails baked to white heat. M.Onfray
Sleep on your settee, sleep, gentle Zorro and gentle Pixie. There’s nothing you can do to stop the stupidity of Men.
That is SO important! Of course we kitties always do that. Maybe humans could learn something.
We agree.
Purrs and peace xx
Athena and Marie
this world needs love and peace… and I hope once all our love can chase the hate and the violence away…
Seems to be too easy. 🙁
My Mom says it’s important to start every day with a hug and an “I Love You” and end every day in the same way…………you never know what will happen and it’s important to tell those you love how you feel. Our hearts are broken for the French people – my parents were in Paris on 9/11 on vacation and the French were so kind, sympathetic and comforting to US…….we would love to be there to return the favor. Praying for peace…………………….
Love, Sammy
We agree too and we sure hope that the humans catch on…quickly.
This is so important to remember! Humans need that reminder a lot.
Very good advice 🙂
We kitties already know that and must teach humans to do the same.
Purrs Georgia and Julie,
Treasure and JJ

Humans can learn a lot from us kitties!! They should listen to us!! xxx
Where do these people get their hatred from?
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
If the world had more peace and love everybody would live better lives and be happier. Maybe one day we’ll have no more wars.
We agree with Hannah and Lucy’s query ,” Where do these people get their hatred from?” We believe that if they had ever known the love of pets, they would straightaway have more love in their hearts.

Yes, yes, yes.
Love, love, love.
