It is a good measure of a person by how they treat animals they come into contact with.
I often stop and observe these interactions and this barometer of character helps me to form an opinion.
Here's a true story. I love cats and they seem to love me... (That's not me in the pic below)
A Lakota man came upon a stray cat, it moved into his workshop where he made craft items to sell.
So he allowed it to stay and fed it.
The cat slept in the workshop and kept an eye on the place, where he would usually be found in the workshop when the man came to work each morning.
One day the cat was sitting outside of the door, the man started to go in but the cat stayed there.
The man was taken aback and wondered why the cat did not move.
So the man opened the door fully and inside the workshop on the floor was a Rattlesnake.
The cat saved the man's life.
He was repaying the kindness shown. Those of us in tune will know this.
I have been doing some very interesting research on the Atlantis question, it is amazing how the tribes are connected to this and ancient human history.
There is more connected than many people realise.
More to follow soon....

Hey, I'm a cat person too! Lovely story - and indeed animals, birds - and trees - have much more awareness, empathy and understanding than most people are able to comprehend. I saw an article yesterday about a dog who laid on top of his owner to protect her from burns in a fire. They are amazing and it hurts me greatly that we are causing so much harm to wildlife and nature.
Yes and not the first animal saves human story I have read.
I think it is unfortunate that most people seem to have lost touch with nature, I think that town living is the problem. The people are not connected to the natural energy as they would walking on grassland.
