Some days I feel like a wind chime in a dead calm. Just had our cat euthanized. We are pet-less for the first time in twenty years. How ironic that I am reading the Tibetan Book of Living and Dying, the Bardos chapter, about freedom through hopelessness, surrender, abandonment. This is a common thread in all mystic traditions.
Buddhism is more Jnana in approach, Christianity more Bhakti.
Another cat is now prowling our hedge, as if it knows somehow the property rights have changed. One cat bites the dust and nature rushes into the vacuum it abhors with a brand new one.
