Animals

I watched a National Geographic-type special today. I cried my eyes out as I saw a mother lion forced to leave behind her cub who had been stampeded by buffalo and left paralyzed. The mother tried to carry the cub but knew the situation was hopeless. As the cub wimpered and watched his mom leave, the mother sat down, eyes closed, obvious deep swallow and left the area. She did not look back. The narrator explained that the lion was feeling actual emotion, more than just primal. Real emotions of love, grief, and guilt.

As I sat on my couch sobbing, my thoughts went to exN. This mother lion was able to feel more than he ever will. Towards me. OW. His Children. Family. Friends. Wife. At any given time, he can decide he is done. Walk away. No explanation. No apology. Just done. All of the history, time shared, promised made meant nothing. DONE.

Animals have more empathy than these N's. These men (women) are empty shells living among us causing drama and hurt. Ruining lives for fun.

Please remain no contact. YOU be the one to walk away and never look back. You will feel badly. Of course you will. It hurts like hell. That is how you are supposed to feel for a while.

But if someone is able to walk away so easily, no goodbye, no I'm sorry, no nothing, by all means, let them. They are more deranged than you could ever imagine.

And give your pet a hug! They'll love you back. Guaranteed.
