Casting a gentle aurelian glow

Lovers separated by the cruel hand
Of a merciless fate -

FeaturedMonday Motivation #62
It’s important to preserve our relationships with family, friends, and partners. It’s important to look out for our loved ones and make sure they’re doing alright. But remember, it’s just as crucial to look after ourselves and make sure we’re in a good place physically, mentally, and emotionally. We shouldn’t put so much of our time and energy into caring for others that we forget to look after ourselves. Doing so can leave you feeling drained, exhausted, tired, unhappy, and a myriad of other negative emotions. So of course, reach out to the people you love and check in on them, but in the process, don’t forget to consider your own health and happiness. You are important, too.

We need to continue pressing for positive change and betterment for our world, for ourselves, for our family and friends, for all those who have been wronged. We need to keep Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy alive, always. So today, and every day, let’s remember the world he dreamed of and work to make it a reality.

FeaturedMonday Motivation #61
Remember that it’s okay to take a break, especially with everything going on in the world right now. Never feel bad about taking a break from your socials or scrolling the news. At times, it’s necessary to preserve our emotional, mental, and physical health by keeping ourselves away from sensitive and/or triggering content. So take time for yourself when you need it, stay away from social media when necessary, and only expose yourself to as much as you can personally handle.

FeaturedFeline Friday #60 – To Cuddle or Not to Cuddle?
There are fur babies who cuddle with their humans any chance they get, there are lap cats and dogs, and there are pets who would sooner claw you than rest with you. So I’m wondering, what are your babies like? Do you have only cuddlers, pets who never want to cuddle, or a mix of both? With my kitties, there’s quite a variety!

FeaturedFeline Friday #59 – The Wonderful Sounds Kitties Make!
I absolutely love the sound of my kitties running about the house, dashing after various toys, playing with one another, and meowing all the while. Those are such wonderful noises, ones that always brighten my day and make life better. This is a bit of a sad story, but I didn’t realize how much I’d miss those noises until my family and I lost Romeo, our senior cat of 17 years.

FeaturedFeline Friday #58 – Kitties in a New Year!
Yay, it’s a new year! We’ve finally done away with 2020, and have moved into a new, hopefully much better year. I know there’s still much to overcome and change as we finally go into 2021, but I’m holding onto hope that this year will be very different, in a good way, of course.

FeaturedCIB Sunday #18 – ‘Pokemon Moon’
It isn’t the most recent release from the series, but ‘Pokemon Moon’ is the newest game I’ve played to date. After all these years and multiple games, you may wonder if their quality has decreased somewhat. However, I think ‘Moon’ still retains the magic and fun of the original ‘Pokemon’ video games, while introducing fresh mechanics and putting its own unique spin on the usual journey. Somehow, each ‘Pokemon’ title manages to be just as engrossing and interesting as the last, even after so many different games. Today, I’m going to go over what I loved about my experience with ‘Pokemon Moon.’

FeaturedFeline Friday #57 – Christmas Kitties in 2020!
One of my favorite parts of Christmas day each year is getting to see how my kitties react to it. This has always been one of the most memorable aspects for me. Christmas is definitely an exciting day for us humans, but I think it’s even more so for fur babies, and judging from my own cats, this is most certainly the case.

FeaturedMerry Christmas, and Happy Holidays to All!
Merry Christmas, and happy holidays to all!! I know this holiday season, and just this year in general, hasn’t been exactly what we expected or hoped for. For many of us, it’s been a year of ups and downs, of disappointment and sorrow. But, there are still so many aspects of life that make it beautiful and joyful. And I think Christmas is one of the best occasions to focus on the positive parts of life. Even in a year like 2020, it’s a time to feel and embrace joy, a time to concentrate on those we love most, and to spread kindness across the world.

FeaturedFeline Friday #56 – Christmas is Almost Here!?
Christmas preparation also includes a lot of wrapping paper, packaging, plastic, and other knick knacks for the kitties to play with. To be honest, the cats aren’t very helpful with those preparations; their main contributions are tearing up wrapping paper, biting at scissors for said paper, and trying to eat ribbons. But, it’s always nice to see them have so much fun!

Remember that it’s always okay to ask for help. There is no shame or defeat in needing the help of others. So when the burden you’re carrying becomes too much for you to bear alone, please ask those around you for help and guidance. We all need a bit of help every now and then.
