My cats also believe in me opening the door when I am home as opposed to them using their own cat door.

I love you and your cat! Just a lovely post and such a good music choice. I have been away in the Olympic peninsula so am catching up on your posts. Savoring, of course.

I'm a huge Rohn Bayes fan, because your writing is so clear and devoid of information that gets in the way of your message. Take this passage, for example: "I mean, I don’t believe it either that my cat can speak English but I reserve the possibility that she might be able to come up with some lucky strikes once in awhile." Your expressions often lead a reader into the realm of possibilities so we can ask, "Why not?"

We are so limited by information, knowledge, and belief, that we have become shut off from the mystery of life, afraid to look at it and enter into it. But your writing begs us to take the leap. Just beautiful!

They aren't just clear, they are poetic, with meaning hidden in the simplest expressions.
