Before you give, learn to receive. Before you believe, find faith. Before you love, first love yourself. However, to live...Oh, to live you MUST let...
Whiskers A soft tender purr, the pad of her paws. A wet pink nose, she stretches her claws. A slight little mew, then she arches her back while she patiently waits for her fishy cat snack. Quietly I watch her finicky ways, I smile and laugh, anxious to play. I sit on the floor while she rests in my lap, then dangle the strin...
