Daisy: Wonderful Scents

Sometimes I wonder about weather. The smell of grass in the morning. It's different when it's early morning dew or if it's afternoon rain. If the sun is shining, it's one smell. I'm fortunate that as a cat I can smell all these wonderful scents that surround us. Can you smell it too? There are some wonderful scents in the garden. One plant makes my head funny, but it smells so great!

I remember the first thing I ever smelled. It was my mother's fur. She was a beautiful lady, but a bit neglected. She wasn't treated badly, she just wasn't paid much attention to. Neither was I. There was the time of being a kitten and everything, but it was never a great deal done to look after us. We were fed, that was about it.

I remember my mum's soft fur. It was warm, safe and comforting when I was little. As I got older, I found new scents. I even found the scent of kittens of my own. Did I smell the same to them as my mother did to me?

I have smelled buses, cars and trains, and even the cargo hold of an airplane. Now I smell summer's coming, and I smell home. The scent of night. The chill. Night has a smell, did you know that? It smells of darkness and dew and silence. It's great!

My bed is another great smell, and I think it's almost time to go and smell it now. Good night.

Introduction

Hi there!

Let's introduce ourselves. My name is Sofia, and I'll be the one at the keyboard writing things down. The ghost writer, so to speak. The actual author will in fact be someone very dear to me - Daisy, a ragdoll cat, who - as it turns out - is both a guide and a companion for me. I'm honoured she has selected that mission.

As she has wise words to say, and I want to get into a habit of communicating with her on a deep level more often, I thought it would be a good idea to give her her own blog, instead of letting her post the occasional thing on my one. I haven't discussed it with her yet, but she might allow for other animals to get through as well and post their thoughts on life, the universe and everything.

What's this about? It's about communicating with animals, preferably about more interesting things than what their favourite toy is.

At the time of writing this, I have taken ACT 1 (Animal Communication Training, step 1 - more about it here: http://www.reikicare.co.uk ), and am planning to continue with ACT 2 later this year.

Yes, animals can communicate. They don't talk like you or I, but they have a lot of things to say to us. If you're interested, a very good book to read is Amelia Kinkade's "Straight From The Horse's Mouth", which will tell you everything you need to know about animal communication - what it is, how it's done, etc., as I'm not planning on go into detail about it here. That's not the purpose of this. The purpose is to let the wisdom of our animal friends come through.

One of my favourite quotes from Daisy so far is "The Source has no terms or conditions, it just is". It's so simple, yet so beautiful. The Source is something she's trying to teach me about. It's a state of unconditional love, and I'm expecting her to be writing about it here in days to come.

As of now, Daisy and I bid you a good night, and blessed be.
