The World According to HomieRap

In a knowledge saturated world, wisdom is in short supply. We know so much and yet so little. We need wisdom. Ask and it shall be given.

Simply simple

I suspect that the kitties are laughing at us mankind. When they peer at us in their quizzard looks, I know for sure they are wondering what on earth we are doing sometimes. Life can be so simple, so honest, so clear. But with our 'superior' intellect, we over-think, over-analyze, over-worry, over-talk. We pride ourselves for being lords over the animal kingdom, over the 'poor, helpless' kitties but don't we all have something to learn from them? In their 'helpless' states, they find simple pleasures - waiting eagerly for that weekend wet food day, avoiding those unpleasant baths by hiding behind the TV or nestled in their favourite corner taking a snooze. Are we as a human race incapable of accepting simple truths in our lives? Are we too full of ourselves to give up the visage of control that we conjure up daily?

I think many of us are simply chasing our own tails. And we laugh at the kitties when they do that! I wondering how often they have stared at us whilst we are sleeping, chuckling to themselves about us 'helpless and lost' mankind.
