One thing you understand when you wake up is our relationship with other beings. There you see how big the picture really is, and how we should not overlook our steps.
We are all playing in this game. That's why we all should respect and not be afraid. Fear is normal in the ignorants and all animals can fear it. Like a mark they developed to notice who's prey, who's danger, who notices, and who doesn't.
If they see you don't have that, and instead, you have respect and confidence, they all become your friends, allies in this game.
Animals come and play their own chess too. And they will look who's aware enough to team up with. They will carry as much as you do, the pain and joy, the light and darkness. They would even sacrifice for you, when death comes looking for a soul, and they show their truest act of love.
And the plants. The master plants themselves. They need to give up their roots, their fruits, their flowers. All for us. All to keep the light flowing.
You see we are a team. So don't think you are on your own even though it seems. Everywhere you go, at any moment of the journey, you will find and ally or you'll be found by it. So you have a new friend, more love and more to learn.
