We create our reality based on our long held beliefs until one day we realize that what we have believed in was not true

 Educated people are superior…

Education brings security and love…

Animals are inferior due to brain size…

These beliefs lasted for many decades
impacting her life view and interaction with others.

At an old age, sitting alone in the dark with two cats
feeling lonely and abandoned by educated people.

One cat purred and licked her face, shattering all her old beliefs!

She came to a sudden realization that brain size or education
does not make one more lovable or superior!

Feeling that unconditional love
in her desperate moment of her life
tears came down her wrinkled face.

She wondered how these animals could be kinder than many educated humans.

Why did I cling to my old beliefs for so long?

You've got me. I've often wondered that same thing. I've also observed how people will suddenly change their attitude when forced by circumstance. If only they could see both sides of the coin initially.

Life is a mystery...
Cats hold keys that unlock mystery...
Poetic thoughts are appreciated and welcome...

Well done Shervin!
