Change is Coming

Lately, I've been seeing the signs. Not sure what they mean or where they're taking me,

The raven calling to me from the top of the phone pole was the first one. Then the random black feathers show up on the sidewalk in front of me. The Raven, despite sometimes being interpreted to mean death, also means that change is coming.

Then I found a decapitated common rat in my kitchen. Ewww. My skin still crawls. Thankfully, it was cleanly decapitated, I think by one or another of my pets, but I can't get it out of my head. I've never seen a rat around my house. How did it get in? How did it get into my kitchen? How come there was no blood?

Okay, I get that the explanations are simple -- It may have snuck in when someone left the door open by mistake. It was killed by one of my cats who, proud of his or her hunter ability, left it for me to see. One animal or another cleaned up the mess. But I think there's more. I wonder if this was another sign.

The Rats are highly adaptable animals that are also survivalists.

My question, now, is what does it all mean? What changes are coming? The ground is shaking. The heat is getting closer.

Will I be able to handle the explosion when it comes? Will I be able to live up to the title of this blog? Will I be able to Stand for Something Now?

I guess I'll just have to wait and see.
