Simple Things in Life make it liveable
I was filling my cats feeding bowl, when he came over and began eating a few of the pieces of cat food that fell from the bag. Lifting a handful of his food from the bag into my cupped hand, I waved it in front of his face to try and entice him from eating from my hand. At first he didn't, but as I held my hand there on the ground..I think he understood what I was waiting for and began eating from my hand.
Most people might worry about being bitten, but he is my cat, he is King. He would no sooner bite me than I would hurt him..and all I could think about was that it kinda tickled when his whiskers brushed my wrist, his nose coming into contact with my fingers as he nibbled up on the food.
But it made me smile, it made me feel happy. Quite happy in fact. I wish all my friends, and all the people in the world would understand that it is the simple things in life that make people happy!
A thank you from the helped, a smile for the kind, and a hug for the appreciated.
And, so starts another day.
