\”Animals are a window to your soul and a doorway to your spiritual destiny. If you let them into your life and allow them to teach you, you will be better for it.\”
~Kim Shotola~
There is a language of Presence, unconditional love and joy that speaks without words. We can learn its myriad nuances through the animals that grace our experience. They are spiritual helpers, guides and teachers who remind us of what is truly important and we should honor them as such.
At the lower levels of consciousness, animals are often considered nothing more than property, workers or food; and, as with everything in this world, we can learn a lot about someone by how they treat those who reside in their care.
When one reaches a level of expanded consciousness and understands deeply that all life is sacred, the impact of that knowledge is demonstrated in every interaction, no matter how small. The world is a reflection of your state of consciousness and anything can be utilized as a barometer which will reflect your current expression of compassion, patience, selflessness, nurturing or awareness in the present moment. Your consistent attention will amplify the light and love that you choose to share.
