I laughed a lot. And surely I would have chosen a dog instead. Even if it's more complicated to see meditate. That’s really funny. I laughed a lot.

But let's be honest, for us lucky ones, with our freedom of speech and movement, there is really no excuse to accept everything that's thrown at us. But.... we do....all the time....that's fat and happy wealth for you! It comes down to something we all know very well, "Social Courage", and believe me, I am just as guilty as everyone else, I don't speak out or act half as much as I should.

Have you ever felt the relaxing effect of a cat sitting on your lap, stroking it and hearing and feeling the softly vibrations of its purr? If not, it is the same thing like looking to the stars with no sense for its magic. Reducing the cat to an useless accessory with the disadvantage of being fed is similar to reduce universe to a merely vast, cold an empty space. No other animal has such a relaxing effect on the mind like cats – regardless whether they are democrats or republicans.
