I recently moved home. And so did my cat. She, like many others going through some kind of transition, found the whole process a little daunting.
But, if I do say so myself, we have both come through it with flying colors. Watching the little feline go from, quite literally, a scaredy cat to her queen-bee-self again has reminded me of a few life lessons:
- Investigate the dark places because they can be really interesting
- Match caution and curiosity instead of just one or the other
- Find your physical or mental safe place just in case things go wrong
- Every day, change gets easier
- You cannot control what happens outside of you
- Be open to new possibilities
- Get plenty of sleep during stressful times
- Anything can be turned into a toy
- It’s okay to walk away sometimes
- This too shall pass
- The best place to nap is in the sunshine!
