Sitting in bed with coffee on a cool Arizona morning, I rejoiced when I saw we were going to have a morsel of wisdom from hhc. And enjoyable it was. I think I will look into the book that you recommended, David. But then to have an update on Juno was the ramekin of bouillabais for me. I've often thought of her, truly the most pathetic and heartbreaking animal that I've seen at Twyla Trust. A living indictment of the worst of humanity. Her recovery and all the compassion, wisdom and power that has made it happen will be my inspiration for the day. Thank you so much. Kathy
Hello David, I was thrilled this morning when I saw that HHC had published another mouse size musing! It was such a beautiful story and one which I could relate to, so thank you for that. However, it made my day to hear of Juno’s recovery. When I saw her photo four months ago, I doubted that she would survive. But today, I cried tears of joy as I read of her progress and I am so in awe of Sarah and the Twala team. Their endless patience, kindness and skill is simply inspirational.
Love hearing from HHC and her musings today really hit home
At first glance, what can go wrong with compassionate acts?
Looking with clarity and wisdom what is needed, what is helpful and what is our capacity to help can help us help better
(And not inadvertently cause harm).
I especially appreciated the twist in HHC’s acts with the little dazed bird— first, her paw- jerk reaction grabbing her/him, then padding into the Himalaya Book cafe which resulted in the conduit to others who could save her/his life.
A beautiful insightful call for awareness in our intent, our limits and who best to handle helping.
Thank you HHC🐾💟
Seeing Juno’s recovery is a testament to how we can support those who have the hands-on expertise to change lives 🐕☮️
HHC dodged a bullet as we might say. Raw instinct morphed into awakened action with compassionate result for both bird and cat. This practice of combining wisdom with compassion is essential to move us from enabling to genuine support.
Lovely thoughts, but a bit "pie in the sky" as far as any cat, including our dear one, is concerned. I don't believe we can attribute human ideas of morality unfairly onto an animal. As long as readers realize HHC is an ideal, and not true. I would never blame an animal, certainly not a cat, if it behaves the way it is made, and cats are predators.
So, so appreciative of this little story from HHC. Insightful and inspiring, as usual. I also feel a sense of renewal and reconnection with every appearance of HHC, as "she" (you, David! through her) was what set me on the dharma path. Thank you.
Dear David. Another great yarn to start the day and week with. And thank you for the follow up with Junno. The difference 4 months of TLC has made is truely remarkable. I was one who thought the kindest thing would have been to end her suffering immediately. I am demonstrably wrong. More power to the people at Twala. Junno can shuffle off to her next life in her own time and enjoy this one in the meantime. If only we could fix the rest of the world so easily. All the best, Chris
Thank you David. Another beautiful demonstration of your powers. Beautiful story full of meaning.
Juno looks amazing. It still amazes me that after such a short time an animal can emerge so different after some TLC. Thank you to our compassionate angels at Twala.
Trusting, (instead of reacting, when we find ourselves in a situation where we could self-destruct,) that everything is happening for a reason and we must allow ourselves to go with the flow - is easier said than done. 😉 HHC made it easy to understand. 🐾🙏🏽 Loved the update on Juno 🥰
HHC always has a wonderful lesson for us. What started out as natural instinct did truly turn into compassion with a little help from those at the coffee shop. Thanks for this teaching and especially for the update at Twala on Juno. What a wonderful recovery and transformation. I just smile at the love that is ex extended to the animals. My heart goes with them and you. Thanks again.
Thank you so much, David for another humbling teaching experience from HHC.
Yes, leaving the learning edges for our children is so important. A gift I am still learning to practice with my youngest. So grateful you bring this through my 'story companions'.

Can’t agree with you more!

A lovely story about HHC and the bird. Being present and aware means that it is possible to correct actions at any stage.
The recovery of Juno is wonderful to see
Good point!

Though HHC may not be a "real" animal. Her character is a vehicle through which we can learn about the dharma. 🙏🙏🙏
I never doubted this.
I do so love HHC, thank you for continuing to share her wit and wisdom with us! Her stories / your books, are among my all time favourites ☀️💛📚🙏
