Take Back Your Life!

Valentino

June 12, 2009 by Giulietta Nardone

I read a book a long time ago called “All I need to know I learned from my cat.” It was written by Suzy Becker. I’d like to take her premise and expand it. Much of what I know about living I learned my cat Valentino. He’s 9 years old and fearless. Nothing rattles this cat, except the occasional loud sound.

He’s adventurous, curious, daring, outrageous, bold, persistent, demanding, loving, hilarious, brilliant, handsome, charismatic and adorable. The adorable part makes up for some of the other often annoying parts like persistent. If he wants something he never gives up until he gets it. He’ll keep coming back and coming back and coming back until you do whatever it is he wants. Probably the most important thing he’s taught me about life is to be fearless. To give something a try before deciding I can’t do it. Most of the time I find I can do it and I’ve got Valentino to thank for that.

What have you learned from your cat?
