In the past, whenever mice managed to sneak into the house, I would resort to using traditional mouse traps, the kind that would spring down with force, swiftly ending their lives.
One fateful day, I had a chance encounter with both an outdoor mouse and one that had found its way inside, and in that moment, something shifted within me. I felt a soulful resonance with these tiny creatures, prompting me to reconsider my approach.
From that point forward, I made the decision to transition to live trapping, opting to capture and release them back into the wild rather than resorting to lethal measures.
Collecting data and insights from my experiences, I learned valuable lessons about the nature and spirit of each mouse. Eager to share my results and insights with others to inspire a closer look at the spirit within us all.
Through my experience with live trapping and releasing mice, I have identified three unique types of energies, each embodying a distinct soulful vibration.
Characterized by jittery movements and a sense of unease, the first type of mice embodies conflicted and edgy energy. These mice frequently display signs of stress and agitation, mirroring an inner state of turmoil.
The second type emits a tranquil and inquisitive vibe, demonstrating a feeling of peace and willingness to discover. These mice engage with their environment in a state of amazement, allowing their curiosity to shape how they interact with the world.
Finally, the third category represents a powerful energy that exudes grace and presence. These mice appear to surpass their physical limitations, projecting a serene strength and wisdom that inspires those in their vicinity.
The first group of mice, with conflicted and edgy energy, exhibit behaviors reflecting inner turmoil. They race around the cage frenetically, unable to find solace. One mouse stood out vividly, displaying intense agitation reminiscent of the frenzied rodents in "I am Legend."
When I released the mice, I was worried they might be aggressive due to their energy. However, they quickly ran out of the cage without showing any hostility.
Their actions lacked mindfulness and intention, instead mirroring a chaotic surge, as if they were venturing into the wilderness with unrestrained passion.
This behavior highlighted the impact of fear and anxiety on humans and animals, emphasizing the need for inner peace and tranquility.
While catching a mouse every night, I've started to believe that certain mice might have been born inside Ketchum House. These specific rodents display a distinct behavior from those found elsewhere, appearing relaxed, calm, and very inquisitive as they explore their environment with a sense of curiosity and openness.
Upon being set free, they appear amazed by the immense natural environment surrounding them. Every stride they make into the wild is greeted with a fresh feeling of curiosity and admiration, almost as if each instant in nature is a unique and marvelous adventure. It feels like they are uncovering the world afresh with each step, prompting me to remember the charm and enchantment present even in the tiniest of beings.
The last group, comprised of just one mouse, stands apart from the others in a profound and poignant way.
After learning about Anthony Ketchum's death on February 1st, I found myself thinking about a specific event that took place on the morning of February 2nd, the day following his passing.
At that moment, without knowing about Anthony's death, I noticed this particular mouse with a heightened level of attentiveness.
Unlike the others, this mouse exhibited a soulful demeanor, hesitating at the threshold of the cage as if reluctant to leave. He would start to exit, only to pause and then retreat back inside, as if unsure if he didn't want to leave.
When he finally did emerge, instead of scurrying away like the others, he lingered, looking at me, as if seeking solace or companionship. Then, in a moment of profound connection, the mouse approached me directly, darting between my feet before disappearing into the forest where Anthony and Mary had constructed their outbuildings.
After conducting my study and having deep interactions with the mice, I am convinced that every living being has a soul and a spirit that is expressed through their physical form.
I firmly believe in the idea of Anthony's spirit inhabiting a mouse and starting a new journey. The remarkable interaction with the mouse after Anthony's death, its distinct behavior, and the unexplainable connection I experienced at that time all suggest the potential for spiritual transfer.
We all appreciate you Anthony and thanks for the visit!
