Not an audience, but a community. I write for like-minded people who know that compassion for all creatures,
regardless of number of legs, tails, wings, scales or fins, helps us all.

From Dr. Glenn Patrick Doyle’s FB

I couldn’t agree more. Has this been your experience too?

When I first started working on my book, it was going to be about animal grief & holidays. Now it’s about unwinding from colonized beliefs about grieving animal family members & shares ideas on how you can grieve that meets your needs and the animals’.

You have started practicing true kinship with animals in your daily life

Then you start second guessing

Which leads to you assuming it’s wrong

Is it?

I wear a ‘true kinship with animals support hat’

And help you find courage to stand with the animals

In intentional relationship

Entitlement comes from hierarchy

True kinship comes from respecting a sentient being’s agency

You deserve to understand the difference

The animals will get it when you do

Look at the history before 10/7/2023 and the history since then. Trust what you see, trust what you feel, not the "reasons" you're told for this despicable gin o side.

Everything before October 7 explains why October 7 happened, and so does everything that’s happened since. Look at what happened before October 7 and you’ll see year after year of murder, oppression ...

"What if I try true kinship and it’s not working?”

That question is based in the colonized perspective that humans have dominion over animals.

True kinship is based on partnership with other sentient beings, each acting in their own agency.

And…..whether you realize it or not…..

10 years ago I made it to Montana! The first pic was taken at a rest stop when I crossed the border & the 2nd pic is the 1st morning in the new house. The furniture hadn't arrived yet, so we had a pallet on the kitchen floor.

The new computer has made a profound difference in working on the book. it's a relief and I feel like I'm *finally* making headway. This week I will be sending a finished rough draft chapter to my book coach for her review. Can't wait to hear what my coach has to say!

A good day for a pot of chili. Damn good if I must say so. And tomorrow, I'm going to experiment with grape/raspberry compote. Wish me luck on that one, I've never tried it before

Helping you know yourself better, know your blocks, know what makes you tick when it comes to building your relationship with animals. Animals observe people. When you change, they will notice it.

I always look forward to @cieltarot.bsky.social posts. They always give me hope and a breath of fresh air and I find myself returning to them throughout the week for encouragement. Especially on Fridays........
Weekly reading for the eyes it’s meant for:

Though exhaustion may still weigh you down, others’ momentum and your own skill will help guide you out from under the heaviness. The seeds of good luck have already been sown, waiting for the right moment to peek through the soil.

It’s always a great day to meet and greet the animals in your neighborhood. You don’t have to make a big to-do, a simple nod of the head can suffice.

Do you show up differently for animals now than you have in the past, say 5 years ago? If so, how? Would love to hear your story ;-)

For me, I listen more to animals - intuitively, noticing their body language, watching & listening for their patterns

Support ko-fi.com/janetroper thx!

Human claim of dominion over animals has been normalized through a biblical basis. It's not normal.Do you spider as well as a spider? Do you fly as well as birds? Do you sprint as well as a cheetah? I don't. Food for thought.

We've been programmed to care for animals, but not taught how to care for them the way they need instead of the way we care for humans. As Alice Walker says: "The animals of the world exist for their own reasons. They were not made for humans..."
