CW: Cute cat, dead mouse
I couldn't find Mama Lemon earlier this evening, then when I went to brush my teeth I heard her calling me by the back door. She somehow sounded different than usual so I went to investigate. Turns out she had gone out to get me a thoughtful gift. I told her "Thank you." ♥️
(The mouse was deceased already)

A quotation from Marcus Aurelius
Constantly think of the Universe as one living creature, embracing one being and one soul; how all is absorbed into the one consciousness of this living creature; how it compasses all things with a single purpose, and how all things work together to cause all that comes to pass, and their wonderful web and texture.
[Ὡς ἓν ζῷον τὸν κόσμον, μίαν οὐσίαν καὶ ψυχὴν μίαν ἐπέχον, συνεχῶς ἐπινοεῖν καὶ πῶς εἰς αἴσθησιν μίαν τὴν τούτου πάντα ἀναδίδοται καὶ πῶς ὁρμῇ μιᾷ πάντα πράσσει καὶ πῶς πάντα πάντων τῶν γινομένων συναίτια καὶ οἵα τις ἡ σύννησις καὶ συμμήρυσις.]Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher
