the soft animal 2

My friend Suzanne Weinberg writes, “I think with my animal loves, there is just an automatic softening – and that contains all of what you write about: vulnerability, nakedness, etc. and more — presence, love, generosity, simplicity.”

I have not written about Nelson much lately.  But the last couple visits have been very good.  He is opening to me again.  He stays with me and is his inquisitive, sweet old self.  Even with big flies bothering him, he stays calm and connected.  He still does not want to do any of the movement games that we were playing a few months ago and I am good with that.  He will tell me when it is time. What I want more than anything is that sweetness, the presence, love, generosity and simplicity that Suzanne speaks of.

  1. Dear Paula, So happy for you & Nelson that you’re both connecting to each other again. Tzigán has finished his monthly rounds of Doxy , he’s much better, I see it by his spine & stiffness as he walks. I have him taking this Chinese Lyme support of herbs but I’m only able to give him one & a half scoop of the powder otherwise he won’t eat his oats. I hope all is well w/ your life, I know by your blogs you’re moving, where to ?? Much love. Anouk
