February, the month of love. The photo with the puppy and kitten snuggling puts a smile on my face and lightens my heart. I hope it does yours too.
English categorizes all of Love as 1 word Love.
Love comes in many forms.
In Greek, there can be 8 words for Love depending on the source.
Since I regard my cats as family members, #4 Storge describes the bonding love and connection of my relationship with Spirit and Sapphire.
Read and see what the type is of love you would say you have with your precious pet(s):- Eros (romantic, passionate love) - The first kind of love is Eros, named after the Greek God of fertility.
- Philia (affectionate love) - The second type of love is Philia, or friendship.
- Agape (selfless, universal love) - The third is Agape, selfless universal love, such as the love for strangers, nature, or God.
- Storge (familiar love) - Storge is a natural form of affection experienced between family members.
- Mania (obsessive love) - When love turns to obsession, it becomes mania.
- Ludus (playful love) - The Ancient Greeks thought of ludus as a playful form of love.
- Pragma (enduring love) - Pragma is a love built on commitment, understanding and long-term best interests.
- Philautia (self love) - The Greeks understood that in order to care for others, we must first learn to care for ourselves.
Spirit had to be taken to the ER twice recently on a weekend and I noticed a big difference in the two experiences.
The first ER experience was very clinical, here's what I suspect, here's options for treatment and here's cost. It was a very matter of fact discussion with no heart connection all the while I'm in panic mode, my heart is hurting, and I'm really worried about Spirit. It was an odd experience to not feel supported during this discussion. They were only a day clinic, so when Spirit came home that evening, he tanked. I had to take him to another ER on Sunday. This clinic had the equipment we needed to see if he needed surgery, they had the overnight facility to keep him on the fluids and meds he needed, and they were very compassionate with their connection with me all the while discussing all the details. Wow, what a difference that made going through this. And, the good news, is Spirit is back to himself!
Through this experience, I realized that I value compassionate care receiving it and that it is a natural and important ingredient in what I deliver in my services. I treat every animal as if they were my own and offer the compassionate support with the pet parent concerned about their precious pet.
And now for a loving exercise... |
