Happy New Year! It is time to ask my animals what they aspire to in the new year:
Stormy (11-year-old Aussie):This next year, I would like to go to more spiritual places with my mom (my person). I have noticed that the people at Krotona (Theosophical Society in Ojai) are calm and there are ancient energies thriving there. These energies help me know whom I am deep inside. I have thoughts at Krotona that I have never had before. The other day, I had the thought that my happiness is from lifetimes of experiencing other beings smiling. I usually just think my happiness is from the moment.
Makia (15-year-old cat): I want a butterfly garden planted for me. I would like to learn how to heal other cats from a distance. I don’t like other cats in my space, but I like the idea of them healthy. Sometimes I have anger because of my diabetes and sugar levels. When this happens I want to remember to meditate in my closet.
