Have you seen this YouTube clip: Cat-Friend vs Dog-Friend:
The first time I saw it I thought, why would anyone want to own a cat? It was amusing enough, so I watched it a couple more times and started seeing people as either cat-types or dog types. Then I realized…I am a cat.
Obviously, dogs are so much easier and pleasant to be around! Even I own a dog and not a cat! Why would anyone want to be my friend? I want/need to be less of a cat to the people I care about.
I thought about trying to be more like a dog: friendly, eager-to-please and loving. As I cat, I can see how those qualities are desirable. But being a cat, I can’t be a dog. At best I can be a kinder cat: less aloof, more welcoming and making an effort to do nice things for others.
So I am making a conscious effort this year BE KIND to others.
Meow….
