Dearest Tender Soul,
My son came home with the sweetest little kitten. A whole litter was left by a dumpster near his work. His heart instantly connected with one orange ball of energy, and he wanted to save it.
As a mother, my heart connected to his story and then, when I saw this sweet little angel of a kitten, my heart opened just a little more. The natural instinct to care for a tiny creature came alive in me. Even though I was feeling such a need to take care of the kitten, I knew we wouldn’t be keeping my son’s newfound friend for a few reasons. That’s when I decided to trust the process.
The question was what would we do next? My son bathed the kitten with such love and care. He held him close to his heart. I picked up some kitten food, and we fed him and held him even more. We were bonding very quickly. In fact, I felt as though I already had a deep soul connection with him.
Messenger of Love…
The interesting part is that, even though I love animals and have such immense respect for nature, I had never considered myself a ‘cat person’. However, in a few very precious hours, I had fallen in love with this innocent messenger of love. Most of all, I do believe that this mother’s love for her child was the conduit for the overwhelming grace and unconditional love that flowed from me to this unexpected guest in our home.
Did I mention, my son named him Ozai after a character who represents fire? It was so fitting. He had a name and place in our hearts. Now all he needed was a home. We decided we could keep him for a couple days until we found the right home, the perfect home.
By the time my older son heard about Ozai, he and his girlfriend shared that they had been hoping to adopt a kitten. They already had three cats, two of which they recently adopted from the shelter. We knew it was not only the best choice. It was meant to be!
Since the day they picked him up, we have received updates and sweet little photos of Ozai. He was such a tender surprise in the midst of these interesting times, and he has been the invitation for more love for us all, including the other cats.
The Message…
Trust the process to make room for magic and miracles!
Miracle Moments
I got to see my son follow his inner knowing and bring this kitten home, despite knowing he would likely not keep him.
My own heart was opened, expanded, and filled with new love, a kind I hadn’t felt before. By letting this love in, I became a new person.
My oldest child had prepared a space in his heart and in his home long before there was a kitten to be adopted.
Trust the process. Listen to life’s every whisper.
Everything is always working out.
May you experience unexpected magic and miracles, and may your heart be expanded by sweet offerings of love.
Love,
Rosa
