60 Seconds for Thoughts on Thursday: Animal Companions Teach Us About Living Free

Hello to you listening in Camrose, Alberta, Canada!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Thoughts on Thursday and your host, Diane Wyzga.

He’s making himself known calling from across the house, standing and staring in my office doorway until I notice.

My kitty is a senior fellow. Been with me some 17 years or so since I brought him home from the shelter. Someone had dumped the litter in a bin outside a convenience store. He’s weathered many changes: losing his sister, moving from household to household, now age and kidney disease.

The thing about him is that he asks for what he wants when he wants it. He doesn’t waste a sunny afternoon wondering what I think. He snoozes in a warm space. He’s figured out how to claim his spot on the bed and the pillow so I adjust to him. No matter my mood or attitude he’s there ready to hand out his personal brand of affection.

Question: What if we could live as well? Would we take the chance? Would we risk it all to be so free?
