Cricket

This could be the most beautiful photo you will see all day. Here’s why….

Dear sweet Cricket recently lost his buddy, Jiminy. And in the days that had followed, we quickly knew we were not alone in our grief. We too know that animals are sentient beings just like us, and so it comes as no surprise to witness this grief, as painful as it is to watch. Seeking ways to lessen Cricket’s pain, we called on the knowledge that music can affect moods. This photo shows what happened next.

Cradled by the sound of the harp and kindness, little Cricket meandered over to Harp Practitioner, Vimukti Warr, and gently nestled in. Drinking in the healing power of music, he too was taken to that place where pain can never harm us. No words needed to be spoken as the gentle lullaby of life resounded, reminding us that in life, love and loss, we are all the same.

Thank you dearest Vimukti for making this happen; all of our lives are richer for your being, talent and compassion.
