The wisdom of senses

I was lucky enough to be taking a walk in the seasonably warm weather the other day, and I was able to snap a picture of these folks on horseback. Horses, at least from a distance, seem very graceful. I think most animals have some form of innate style and grace from humans to cats.
Animals are wonderful at sensing things. They can sense when storms are arriving, our pets can sense when we are sick, and they can sense anything that is differnt or out of the ordinary in the house.
I have two cats, and they are very wise. Unfortunately they are not able to tell me when they are not feeling well. One of my cats had some stomach problems, and she had not been to the vet for a very long time. I scheduled an appointment, came home from work, and I got out the pet carrier.
She, Banjo, immediately sensed that something was out of place. She would not come near me. When she was a baby, she had to ride in this pet carrier to get fixed. It is a large carrier.
As I was loading Banjo into the carrier, I noticed, my voice was very strained. I was very upset because I was not certain was wrong with her. She is a cat who has been through a lot with me, and my senses were on overload. As I drove to the vet, I began breathing deeper. I realized that my anxiety was causing my cat to get more anxious.
I turned on some music on the radion. I talked to her like I just like when we are home. I told myself that everything was going to be fine.
Although this a generalization, I think that what I have learned is that my anxiety does affect those around me. I saw that very clearly through my pet. People pick up on things just as easily as animals. There have been books written on memes and the way we can be controled by the thoughts that are put out there by others.
I am going to make a more conscious effort to send good thoughts out to the Universe. We are all divine. We are all trying our best to make it in this world, and we need the best thoughts that we can give each other. Although we may not walk away from this world, we can enter the next one in bliss and peace. We can know that we we the best version of ourselves. Only we ourselves can measure that. We can walk that path with our eyes closed or our eyes opened. I truly believe we want to be peacful people.
