Chasing that dream

by jgr80

The cat was chasing a tuna can all over the floor in my family's kitchen. I rushed to find my camera.

"Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly." Langston Hughes

As you can see, she's a pretty well-fed cat. I've seen her behave in this obsessive sort of way before-- not just over food. I've seen other domesticated animals do it as well. I think there's an instinctual call-of-the-wild part of the brain that doesn't get turned off completely in their brains. It gets flipped on in moments like these. Moments like when a cat plays with a bird or a mouse.

Keep chasing that dream, BK.
