A few days ago I received some news that although they were not entirely bad, they destabilized me a little, when we de-stabilize life becomes a little more difficult, that of maintaining a mental balance gets complicated. And while attitude and striving to focus on the good are important things at times like this, it can also be forgotten for a moment.
There are specific things that can emotionally imprison you, keep you tied to an idea or a negative emotion. That news for me was one of the things that made me feel tied down, however, these days I have worked on that a bit. And I can tell you something so simple and unexpected that really helped me a lot.
After a very long time, there are pets at home, we adopted them recently, but I have already gained their trust. So they approach me with love, the day when I was tied to a negative idea that was filling me with anxiety, I was surprised to see these cute kittens Nebula and Gamora, as they approached me with affection, slowly and lay on my legs to keep me company.
Unexpectedly, these kittens somehow brought me back to the present. As I stroked them I smiled sincerely, thinking that something so small can be part of something as big as the mind. After a while of just keeping me company they started trying to play with me and convinced me. The idea that was holding me in its grip passed to the background and I could only think that everything is never as bad as we think it is.
Nature is wonderful, the animals that are part of it are so beautiful and reflect the beautiful personality of the one who created them, so this little act of my kittens, made me change the channel, feel free to play with them, to caress them and after that to start doing other things I had to do with a better attitude. Because finally the essential goes far beyond any material thing, it is found in love, in the innocence of a tiny living being.
Obviously I know that difficult situations will arise, they will be part of our life and sometimes they may make us feel imprisoned. The important thing is to know how to deal with it and when we can't, then getting some help doesn't hurt, I know I have a couple of kitties I can count on. That they are now part of an activity that helps me feel more free of mental and emotional burdens.
From this experience that happened just a couple of days ago I learned that the simple is also powerful, in my life I have seen how the small things are, those that nowadays not everyone gives importance to, in hard moments, moments in which we feel deprived of freedom, are those "small" things that make the difference. It is only a matter of feeling, being aware and also reasoning to reflect.
