About Respect

There are so many videos on social media of cats knocking things like glass off tables, you would think they do so because it's their nature. Some people even find these videos funny. I don't. 

I have observed cats are very curious creatures, but they have to be trained not to be destructive.

Zeus, my flatmate's cat, likes jumping on the kitchen counters and tables, but he has been trained not to knock things over.  

After Zeus jumped on to the table, he went to sniff the flowers in the vase, but did nothing further.

When our pets are trained to respect our stuff, they will respect them. ❤️

Relevant Bible verse:

"Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6

About Availability

"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." ----- Last night I dreamt about my ex-boyfriend who is now a very good friend. In the dream, I was upset with him for not being there for me and forgetting my birthday.  When I woke up, I thought the dream was really silly.  Why would I care whether he forgets my birthday?  Besides, even though, we haven't been together for almost 10 years, he always remembers my birthday. This morning, I received a text from the same friend. He told me he recently had a minor operation and was recuperating at home.  He asked if I was available to visit him. I told him I was busy doing my laundry, but I could visit him in the afternoon, as he only lives about half an hour away from me by bus. He asked me to visit the next day instead if I was still available. Now it made sense why I had had that nonsense about my friend. I guess when you've known someone for 30 years, you're bound to be able to pick up on their vibe...

Bananas

 A few days ago while I was grocery shopping, I wondered if I should get some bananas, but I decided not to as they don't last long. That's why I only buy a banana when I fancy one in that moment.  I got red grapes instead which last a lot longer. Yesterday, I didn't see my flatmate as I was already in bed by the time she got home. This morning when I went in the kitchen, I noticed my flatmate had left a note on the kitchen top for me to have these two bananas. I immediately gobbled one up. Thank you, God, for providing my bananas through my flatmate. ♥️ Photo of the note and bananas 😊
