【The landlord is a cat】What the cat gave me

In the middle of the year, the epidemic situation was severe, so there were not many partners who came to Sham Shui Po in Yancheng. There were no windows for more than two months. One afternoon, SW asked through the platform if we could book a room. We actually communicated for a while. Including whether the rent is cheap, and whether the equipment in the listing meets his needs, etc. In the rainy season at the end of August, SW came to our house with his large suitcase.

SW is the oldest passenger I have ever received and the longest rental period. At 65 years old, she is from Hong Kong. After the epidemic broke out in Taiwan two years ago, she has never left Taiwan. In the past two years, she has brought her large suitcase to many towns in Taiwan, but this time she chose the warm Kaohsiung, and came to Yancheng, an old-fashioned gentleman. This kind of fate will make me amazed and special in retrospect.

Tiger and Lion's reaction this time was unexpectedly unfamiliar to me. I don't know if it's because they haven't come to the house for a long time, and they hid in the room and couldn't come out. Maybe they should give them more time to adapt!

Sensitivity is not bad, but it is not a reason to hold you back

"Be brave! Next time, go into my sister's room generously and say hello to her." My sister looked at Lion and said.

The two cats would run away even when I sneezed, and would respond to the slightest sound. Sensitive and cute children. However, the behavior of the two cats also made me rethink my life mentality. Even if the unfamiliar smell is in our house, the two are still looking around at the door of SW's house, as long as SW makes some noises in the room or opens the door When they came out, the two were always wandering there curiously, or rushed back to our room in the next second. Looking at the two cat sons who were about to move, they finally successfully entered the room. Although they both ran out in less than a minute, they showed a "successful touchdown" expression.

I have been in a low ebb for a while now. I am full of confusion about the future, and anxiety and anxiety have been covering me. Although I appear calm, only I know that it is my heart that is always unsettled.

 Now, I admit that I am a sensitive person. I used to think that being able to intuitively answer "what the other party wants to hear" and "what is most suitable for the current situation" is a kind of considerate ability, or even in a comfortable situation, Many small details are still perceptible.
Once upon a time, this sensitive trait made me forget to listen to my inner voice, forget that even if I am anxious, it is not a reason to stop myself and stop exploring the world.

There was any movement in the room, and the two cats were still on alert, but I knew they were not as scared as they used to be, and even took that step carefully. In the end, they successfully stepped in the door and explored the familiar and unfamiliar space. .

"I should be able to?" The inner voice is looking forward, although I don't know if I have done it, but I know that I have taken that step.

distance creates beauty

Although the two cats and SW have only been together for two months, they have taught me one thing - distance is beautiful.

In the process of life, we have faced many obstacles and difficulties, and met countless people. However, everyone came into our lives, not what we predicted. If it wasn't for the death of my mother, I never thought that Tiger and Lion would meet me. participate in each other's lives.

Even so, we all have our own way of life to continue to move forward. We are grateful for these fates, but do not have too many evaluations and expectations for these people and things.

 Because of our sensitive characteristics, we are always worried that others will not feel comfortable, or feel that we are not considerate enough. When the distance is maintained properly, we all have our own space and time, and that sense of beauty makes us relax and make us feel at ease.

SW shared with me her experience in the past two years. Even though people are animals living in groups, he made many choices and hardships by himself. own voice. Not everyone can accept their true appearance, but it is difficult to be "honest and calm" in the process of getting along. SW and the two cats give each other a sense of beauty that does not disturb each other, give a safe distance, and give each other a distance they like.

Accept every change in life

"I 'm not used to the days without my sister. " My sister murmured when she was cleaning the room.

Because of the visa period, SW returned to Hong Kong early. To tell you the truth, I was really not used to it. When I got home, I was used to the shoes of my sister who walked thousands of miles by the door. Sometimes I saw her cooking delicious and healthy in the kitchen. dinner, or listen to her share with us where he went to shop today! I thought I wouldn't miss it, but looking at the empty room, I still felt melancholy.

 There is an endless banquet in the world, and it is impossible to control the coming and going of others, but the coming and going of others affects our mood.

The two cats played and slept as usual, as if SW had never been here before, but I found out that maybe it was because of SW's departure that I was affected by my emotions. After all, how much the two cats wanted to step inside. Go to SW's room to find out, but can continue to live on SW's departure.

Welcome your arrival and accept your departure

In the life course of Tiger and Lion, people who come and go fill their life, but they are not overly attached and nostalgic, accept the fact that they are happening, and can find a comfortable distance and be themselves at ease. This is what I feel no matter what I do. difficult thing.

If there is a chance, I also want to become his day, and let myself think about the current predicament and emotions in a different way. Maybe there are more choices in life.
