A thank you

a black cat lying on a red blanket

 I sit by my desk working. 

The house is cold, as i try to save on the electricity bill. 

I need to fetch some water and so i move.

The little bundle on my lap stays there unconcerned of the motion in the beginning.

Then it gets up, stretches while still on my lap and finally leaps onto the benchtop.

I immediately feel the loss of her warmth.

I look at her, pet her and say "Thank you kitty".

Thank you for the warmth and love you give to me.

a black cat with green eyes looking straight at the camera and sitting on top of a notebookThank you for always being there with me, even when you sit where you are not supposed to, like on my notebook when i' m writing.

Thank you for waiting for my return to home and welcoming me with loud meows even before i open the door. 

Thank you for sniffing my face and licking my eyelids when i' am laying in bed.

Thank you for being naughty and play with the yarn as i try to crochet and play with the rubber band as i try to seal a plastic bag.

Thank you for every major or infinitesimal thing you do.

Thank you for being.

Thank you.

THIS IS A SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS  on the fable written by Walter Crane  called " KING LOG & KING STORK"  in his book THE  BABY’S  OWN  ÆSOP,  BEING THE FABLES CONDENSED IN RHYME  WITH PORTABLE MORALS.  The story is based on the well known as fable " The Frogs who wished for a King ", for which I've already posted a summary and analysis and you can read on the link above.

A Touch of Humanity: Unveiling Compassion in Turgenev's "The Beggar"

Summary In this short story we see an apparently well-standing citizen meeting with a beggar on the street. The beggar is in a terrible condition wearing rags, having festering wounds, bloodshot eyes. He asks for help, but the man happens to have nothing with him, so he clasps the beggar's hand, asking for forgiveness for having nothing to offer. An unexpected thing happens then. The beggar smiles and tells the man that the handshake is a gift itself.   Analysis The story explores the condition of poverty and the sentiment of empathy and human connection. There is a stark contrast between the narrator's outstanding condition and the destitute condition of the beggar. The narrator's act of clasping the beggar's hand shows a moment of compassion and even though it is a small act it's full of kindness and meaning. The beggar's reaction and answer to the man showcases how important it was for him to be considered a human being. An equal, worth of clasping...

The Frogs & The Ox: A Tale of Vanity and Authenticity | Summary and Analysis | Aesop Fables

Summary : In this  fable, we find an Ox who accidentally squashes a young Frog while taking a sip from a reedy pool. The wise old Frog, intrigued by the incident, asks about the reason behind the little one's sudden disappearance. The other Frogs paint a picture of the Ox as a gigantic monster, and the old Frog, keen to show her own size, puffs herself up. However, as the young Frogs insist that the monster was even larger, she continues to inflate until she bursts.  Moral Lesson & Analysis: The primary moral lesson is: “Pride is all good and well, but don’t think yourself bigger than you are.”  The old Frog's vanity and desire to seem bigger than she truly was ultimately led to her downfall. This story serves as a valuable lesson against excessive pride and self-deception.  In addition to this moral lesson, we can explore another perspective. The fable sheds light on the folly of comparing oneself to others. The old Frog's attempt to measure up to the Ox's size ...
