Long back I saw a video where a man did have a tiger as his pet. He moved around his house/estate and even used his dining table!

Insightful use of 'Pacifist' here...

This is an outstanding note/read, Franco :))

I have always wondered what it would be like to have a lioness as a pet, a protector and companion.

I know it is a bit silly but I do allow myself to engage in the fantasy. I am also curious about the very early days of humans. How did we survive with such real fears. We are so insulated from real threats on our lives in our sanitized urban communities that I think we have to make up threats. Loved this piece. Had me thinking again about where we came from with gratitude.

It's all really tantalizing to think about. So many mysteries about our early human ancestry. And yes we now live in a world so vastly different than the world our brains evolved to handle. It's all so strange and overwhelming I think ❤️

The creative process keeps us going no matter what. I would have drawn on cave walls too. Great read!
