Of Felines and Shorelines
People are always talking about lost things. Lost time, lost socks, lost chances. It seems like if we don't stop every now and then to take stock of the things we've lost, we'd have to add our own minds to the list.
But cats don't have this problem.
Cats lustily chase, catch, and lose a thousand things a minute, and race right on to the next one with undiminished gusto, ready to try anything and everything once again, ready to give the grand pursuit another shot. Losing everything but the whole point.
Cats and beaches have a lot in common: They’re both filled with mystery and delight.
The place where the land meets the sea is a lost place, a place of blurred frontiers and far off horizons, things to be chased. Where the waves ceaselessly pursue the shore, anything can be found.
I've been so busy getting lost, I'm just now finding this.
