(The personality of the Persian asks of us to be more than we are. Are we sitting comfortably in our recliners while the world moves about around us? Are we afraid to take chances? Are we ‘going places’ or are we stuck in a rut? Do we want to take chances? Do we want to sit comfortably in our recliners? Do we want to be stuck in the confines of our present thinking?

These are the questions we will need to ask of ourselves when we are attracted to the beautiful Persian. He brings with him an influence which, if we allow, will encourage us to be more; do more; ask more; be not afraid to take that risk. Yes, my friends, the beautiful Persian is asking this of you. Be more than you are. Take a chance. Allow that which is rightfully yours to be embraced. And what is rightfully yours? Life, my friend; life in all its wonder and enjoyment; all courtesy of the wonderful Persian energies.)

((I personally had a Persian for a brief time in my life. His name was Blue Par (Bloopa, for short). He had been born by caesarean section and had suffered a lack of oxygen. His development was delayed and he walked like a drunken sailor due to a balance problem. The vet wanted to end his life and put him at peace however, his breeder and I wanted to delay this for as long as was acceptable to Bloopa and to us. I had to wash him frequently because he wasn’t able to groom himself properly. I dearly loved this little ball of fluff and he loved me.

Four years came and went so quickly. It was when he could no longer control his bladder (plus other things) that finally I knew he had had enough. The vet made it easy for me and for him. He left instantly; no pain that I could see; just a little limp body in my arms. I took many chances over that period of time and he (Bloopa) taught me to not be afraid. If he could live life in all his disabilities surely I could take that strength and do those things that I needed to do. I will always dearly love the time I spent with him and give thanks for the lessons he served to me.))
