Kitten Heals
Our final day of awareness-creating tips arrives in the form of a surprise addition to my life. Last week I heard meowing in stereo as I collected my cat from the barn. The other sound turned out to be a new kitten. As I’ve been slowly introducing her to my cat, every day is an adventure.
Just watching a kitten discover household items reminds me of awareness.
Everything is fun. Everything is a toy. Everything is a source of joy.
I never noticed that magazine subscription hanging down from the plant stand. But the kitten did.
Toilet paper and cotton balls have new meaning now. They’re not just for practicality anymore.
Jump ropes hanging from the chair are fun. So are pens, shoestrings, and the screen door.
Watching a kitten play reminds us to be aware of those things that have always been there, but have gone unnoticed. We were too busy. We were distracted, tired.
We were not aware.
And so we missed all the humor and fun that were waiting all around us.
Which of these six tips will YOU start using tomorrow? Pick one and start to, “Get Your SHINE Together!”
