A Cat's Guide To Taking Care Of Your Human
Use your imagination and start writing !!! I would like you to make a similar comment from a different point of view, a dog, a parrot... you name it. I doesn´t have to be long, just a few sentences. Try to get inside the animal´s thoughts and imagine the actions that the animal performs to help the poor human. When you are done with it, make sure you send it to me.

The Men Who Stare at Goats - Mother Earth Prayer
I hope you all like the prayer to Mother Earth. It´s from a movie I really like. The men who stare at goats.
What I want you to do is to create a prayer to Mother Earth or to Mother Moon or mother (or father as well) Sun... even to Jupiter or Saturn...
It doesn´t have to be too long, perhaps just 10 lines. Use your imagination.
"Mother Earth, you are my life support system. As a soldier
I must drink your blue water, live inside your red clay and eat your green
skin. Help me to balance myself as you hold and balance the Earth, the sea and
the space environments. Help me to open my heart knowing the universe will feed
me. I pray my boots will always kiss your face and my footsteps match your
heartbeat. Carry my body through space and time. You are my connection to the
universe and all that comes after. I am yours and you are mine. I salute
you."
