Theme: Habit or Choice?
Think about how your relationship with animals was shaped: by family, culture, friends, where you grew up. Which parts did you choose, and which did you inherit? This isn't about whether you're doing anything wrong.
Most habits are inherited. That's not a criticism of family or culture. It's simply where noticing starts.
Optional activity: Write down three habits around animals you grew up with. Mark the ones you'd keep if you were choosing again.
