Lit Path

Life is not always perfect. Like a road, it has many bends, ups and down, but that’s its beauty. Amit Ray



The Small Indian Mongoose (Herpestes javanicus), a native of Asia, was introduced to Hawai'i in 1883. Wikipedia


Mongooses symbolize fearlessness in Indian tales, embodying curiosity over caution.

Just keep hope within 
you and your 
path will be lit.

That mongoose is very cute, so is the dog with the visor who looks like he's pretending to be a mongoose. Pixie looks like she's in her happy place getting chin scritches. That lion is ready for the dancing to begin... 3 more days!!

I really enjoyed how your post weaves together quotes, nature, and little lessons from life. The way you connect hope, courage, and curiosity feels personal and uplifting, like a gentle reminder to keep moving forward no matter the twists in the path.

I think Pixie would be quite interested to meet a mongoose.

I'm imagining Pixie purring with satisfaction as you rub under her chin!

I never saw a mongoose before! It reminds me of a ferret

The fat mongoose with the pink hat is cute. Oh, yea, doggie. Linda in Kansas

Mongooses are intriguing. I guess they are really good at fighting snakes.

A little scratchy under the chin must be a nice thing.
