Musings at 5 am

God couldn’t be here himself
so he clothed his Helpers in fur
and sent them to Earth

love, love, love he said
as if nothing else ever mattered
and o, how they do.

Bet you can’t watch it without at least one little happy tear coming to your eyes!

what is the purpose of the sun?
my cat’s perspective:
the porpoise of the sun
yes, pun intended
we like fish
back to the porpoise of the sun
is to lay
stretched out
long
warm
no cares
naps
yum
the sun is for my people to give up their
worries to
so they come and love and snuggle up
next to me
ah, sun

I struggled a bit choosing which piece to bring you today to celebrate
love on this Valentine’s Day.  I finally settled on this simple and beautiful
poem from Mary Oliver.  Dogs are such givers of unconditional love and
if I were to live by Percy’s advice I suspect I would lead a satisfying and
good life.

Love, love, love [...]
