I love reading quotes and mulling over them. Its been years since I have read a quote which roughly translated that we need someone we can love in our life more than someone who loves us. When I first read that I raised an eyebrow and thought is that really so…
Then life started to gather various types of experiences, some really harsh truths and realities showed up and I for the first time realized the truth. We desperately need someone we can love blindly. Someone or something. It may be God, our work, our hobby, our passion or a pet. The core truth to me is we can survive without being loved but life becomes bleak if we don’t have something/someone around us who we can blindly love.
After realizing this golden truth I have realized another thing, why people with too hectic/ stressed life often keep a pet. Because its unselfish affection brings out the best type of affection from its owners.
So, I am not one of those (never was) who raise their eyebrow when a man leaves his cat a million dollar in his will.
