Dear Bubbles,
What advice do you have for staying present, and not worrying too much about the future?
Emily in San Francisco
Dear Emily in San Francisco,
As a cat, I have no choice but to be present. One minute, I'm staring out the window contently, and the next, the humans are picking me up with their hairless raccoon hands, forcing me to snuggle. I accepted years ago that I have no control over these events.
Being present is just about accepting that the hairless raccoon hands will come and go, the outside showers will sometimes fall, and you might even lose almost all of your teeth.
It's about trusting your courageous spirit, and going after what inspires you every day, day by day. It's not letting your gummy mouth, or unwanted water drops hold you back. When the humans pick you up, just wiggle your way free.
Why worry about the future when literally anything could happen? God forbid, the humans bring home a smelly, gross dog. I've heard them talk about it...
So if they do, I'll spend some time on top of the dresser, and admire the view from there. Maybe I'll notice something new while I'm up there, and it will inspire me in a whole new way.
XOXO,
Bubbles
