My cat Jasmine has this interesting tendency to bury things she doesn't like.  Each morning, as I sit here sipping my morning cup of coffee, she is right here on the desk burying it.  Now mind you, there is nothing to bury it in and no matter how long she works at it, it is still there.  But this doesn't matter to Jasmine.  She faithfully buries for about 5 minutes, turning in different directions, moving around the cup until she is satisfied.  Then she nonchalantly walks away as if the object is buried and gone.  She does this with food, beer, and even stinky socks.  I wonder, as I watch her bury these offensive items, if I can somehow use this in my own life.  How easy it would be to mentally bury the things that I don't like.  I can use any medium I want and bury it as long and deep as I want.  Example:  rude driver cutting me off.  I could bury this driver in poop, maybe fresh cow manure, walk away and leave him there.  Just the thought brings a smile to my face. Yes, Jasmine, I think you are on to something.
