I get these things in my main every morning, never been about a cat before
but I thought it was relevant to creating our hearts desires, etc. I think
that's the way it works best to create something in our lives, to love it
more before it loves us.
Anyway, this is what I got in the mail this morning. LOVE YA- Juls
TODAY: Love Letter To A Cat
A love letter to a cat?
Why not? At least Andrew thought it might work.
This is an actual love letter written by a boy to his cat. But
before you read the letter, you must understand this about the cat.
She is about as affectionate as a cactus. And besides, she goes to
great length to avoid Andrew. She would rather sleep the day away in
one of her many hiding places scattered throughout the boy's house
than be near him. And on one of those rare occasions when she makes an
appearance, he can forget about touching her. If he never has anything
to do with her, that is all right by the cat.
The boy tries his best to be nice. He looks for her, searching
the house for an occupied hiding place, and feels abundantly grateful
if he should stumble upon his treasure. He is occasionally allowed to
stroke her once or twice before she flits off. He even feeds her,
hoping to eventually win her confidence and perhaps even a bit of
affection. But he is seldom rewarded with anything like attention.
Now that you know something about the cat, whose name is
Mehitabel, by the way, what about the love letter? It was found next
to the cat's food dish. This is what it said: "To cat (he couldn't
spell Mehitabel!): I love you. Before you love me I will love you
more. Love, Andrew. Meow!"
What a selfless love! "I love you. Before you love me I will
love you more." That is a parent's love for a child. And God's love
for humanity.
There is something excessive about a love which says, "Before
you love me I will love you more." What a wondrous world this would be
if it were filled with excessive lovers!
