I think I was a cat in a previous life. I’m sometimes curious and inventive. Sometimes I’m an introvert – I want peace and quiet. Other times I’m an extrovert – I like being around people and noise.

I can be confident, but at times I’m more reserved.

I love having the house to myself, but after a while I wonder where everyone has got to and I want them home.

You can touch me and hug me, but only if you know me well… and please don’t overdo it.

I used to get along with everyone – like a kitten – but now that I’m older, I’m choosy about who to spend my precious time with. I see through people better and have a low tolerance of their bull. I won’t allow myself to be pressured into doing what I don’t want to do.

Just like a moggy, I do my own thing but I’m there for my loves when they need me.

Am I ever cranky? Hell, yeah! Aren’t we all?

When I learned how to say ‘no’ to people, I realised that trying to please everyone was not the road to happiness.

The End
