I couldn’t resist sharing this op-ed piece with you. The title is, “In this Era of Dog-Eat-Dog Politics, We Need More Cats,” by Cameron Smith. http://www.al.com/opinion/index.ssf/2018/04/in_the_era_of_dog-eat-dog_poli.html
Herein, he compares the way of politics as following the methods a dog uses to handle any challenges before them (or not), to deal with issues, and so forth. And he suggests that maybe politicians should take a more cat-like approach instead. It’s a good read.
I got a kick out of some of his phrases and analogies. He says that a cat doesn’t waste energy and, in fact, even has a nap named after them. He suggests that maybe we need more patience in politics such as the cat demonstrates when hunting, for example.
