Although I agree with much of that, I believe animals speak more clearly than humans. They speak with actions, and they don’t lie. They have no ego, no hidden agenda and they don’t expect you to read between the lines. I find it is much easier to communicate with animals who don’t speak English, than to try and navigate the deceptive world of humans. Because I cannot read what the human really thinks, only what they say, I prefer to spend more energy with the animals who live only in this moment. I do spend time with humans and I love helping where I can, but I always retreat the to the animal world, especially if I have spent long hours in meetings.
