No human likes being called names, nor does any Animal. It's especially harmful when we cast aspersions on entire species, such as Bird, by calling others 'birdbrained'. Bird says, "If you were actually to become 'birdbrained', then we'd be more interested in listening to what you have to say." The DD (dinosaur DNA) still runs through the least ass…

We have a lengthy ancestral relationship with Horse as a 'beast of burden', and we also have a tangential path of Horse as 'partner'.

And about which Horse will school…

To thrive on this planet you must experience your abilities beyond the labels that have been put upon you such as HSP, ADD, ADHA, autism, etc. And to advocate from a different perspective for those in your care with similar labels.

Think of your Animal companion's behavior as a mirror that shows your energetic fingerprint as well as theirs.

It's always interesting to see how our good ideas get warped via implementation in human experience. Take Stoicism for example. The Animals can endorse the original tenet that it's our judgment of events that trips us and all Animals up and that those judgments are entirely up to us. The poet Robert Frost wrote "The best way out is through" which m…

Perhaps it's the quest for the Soul of Animals that we're after in our persistent attempts to give them our rights. What we 'name' we can consider 'conquered' and 'ours'. We want to 'right' the wrong of Animal cruelty and abuse yet giving them our rights when so many of us don't have equity in those rights, is a non-starter for them. Best to stick …

At times, we can feel soul-less or ennui plus plus which is to say oockety (a technical Energy term) and quite uncomfortable.

We often look at Animals in a Herd as being one large Energetic fingerprint. Yet we wouldn't dream of looking at a Herd of humans in the same way with our diversity that screams to be noticed.

Translated from the French, RSVP is "respond if you please"; children have their way of asking for a repeat of something which is "again!", especially if they're having fun.

Our vocalizations/language have so many generation-specific idioms and slang, that it's no wonder other species can't understand us.

We're taught as human Animals to hold the brain above the heart and to elevate thoughts above emotions.
