When we were young, we were restless. I was mostly clueless and didn’t stop my younger brother from throwing a small rock at a very black kitty cat. The small projectile injured the left eye of the kitty and rendered it blind in that one eye.
I believe that we are cursed for burning ants with our magnifying glass, swatting flies in mid air, skewering baby Monarch butterfly caterpillars and squashing spiders and vacuuming other small critters.
While I washed tonight’s dinner dishes, I cradled the poor kitty in my mind’s eye, soothing it to sleep. I also sensed that my brother should repent and ask forgiveness of the kitty from long ago. Perhaps then he will have have peace of mind and less fighting while conscious and in his dreams.
