If I Were A Cat For A Day

Imagine you wake up one day, and you are cat.

Imagine you wake up and you feel like you have lost a lot of weight, even shrunk a couple sizes. You are suddenly warmer than ever before, as if you had fur. You stand up, and can’t seem to even stand up on your two legs. You are a cat. Imagine one day you woke up, and you were a cat.

Now this wouldn’t be all that bad, there are some serious life benefits in being a cat. Cats are often portrayed as mean, angry creatures, but that just allows them to do anything they want without judgment from humans. So without further ado, here are a couple of the first things I would do if I suddenly woke up one day, and was a cat.

Sleep all day without being judged

Why are humans deemed lazy if they sleep all day? Okay, I know why. For cats, however, it’s completely normal, and in fact, expected of them to sleep all day. I would catch up on many nights, and days, of restful sleep if I were a cat.

Rid myself of worries

Literally what responsibilities do cats have? I wouldn’t be sad if I randomly became a cat, I would be thrilled. Sleep, eat, and play all day without working, paying bills, or worrying about life? Sign me up.

Be a curious kitty

All cats do is explore things. Their body is small enough to climb through tight spaces and jump great heights. Optimal for exploration. I bet cats enjoy the world more than humans do because they get to see it in a different perspective.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
