You don't see,

cos you won't looking. You don't hear, cos you won't listening.

The animals sharing our world - they are as we see them to be. If you see them as voiceless, senseless wild beings, different from us in every way, that they shall be. Thinking them as unable and yourself uninterested or ridiculing the thought of communicating with them, they seem just fillers on earth. To help us humans in work, food, clothing, at best, companionship?

But look again. Listen in stillness. Everything, everyone, is as you see them to be.

The animals - they still are talking to us. They still are looking to you - to be their Protector. As it is always meant to be.

Let them speak with you. Beginning with the ones closest and most familiar. One at a time. So you know best your role with each animal you encounter. To help, to release, to let go. To awake again to oneness.

Good to be back for awhile.

Well said! Hope everyone of us is able to listen and see the animals, in order for us to know what they need and try to do something for them. Amen! ~~gL

Totally agree. They are talking to us, looking to us to be their protector in this harsh world where little consideration and respect is given to them. All they require is just a small place where they can call home and be allowed to live life to the fullest. But we men, have often deprived them this rights, with excuses such as "they spread disease, pose threats to men, attack men, etc". We need to pray for his divine intervention.
