Question: Dear Kryon: I live in Spain. I am sorry if I will ask you a question you might have already answered, but the translations of your books are very slow and I might not have gathered all information you have already given. I am quite concerned about abandoned animals. It seems that many people buy animals for their children and as soon as they grow, they set them out somewhere. Recently I had the occasion to see a small kitten in the middle of the street. I did not immediately react, since I could have stopped and taken it, without getting out of the car. So, I went on and at the first occasion I could turn, I went back to see if I could take the kitten, but it was to late, somebody had already killed it. This happened some month ago, but I still feel very sorry for that kitten. I just would like to know, what kind of entity are these animals and how does this fit in our world. Are these entities which choose this kind of life, like we do choose our kind of Human life? I see so many abandoned animals and every time I see one, my heart aches... I would like to know more about them.

Answer: Dear one, indeed the answer has been given, but let us give it again so you all understand. Animals are here on earth for three (3) reasons.

(1) The balance of biological life. . . the circle of energy that is needed for you to exist in what you call "nature."

(2) To be harvested. Yes, it's true. Many exist for your sustenance, and this is appropriate. It is a harmony between Human and animal, and always has. Remember the buffalo that willingly came into the indigenous tribes to be sacrificed when called? These are stories that you should examine again. The inappropriateness of today's culture is how these precious creatures are treated. Did you know that if there was an honoring ceremony at their death, they would nourish you better? Did you know that there is ceremony that could benefit all of humanity in this way. Perhaps it's time you saw it.

(3) To be loved and to love. For many cultures, animals serve as surrogate children, loved and taken care of. It gives Humans a chance to show compassion when they need it, and to have unconditional love when they need it. This is extremely important to many, and provides balance and centering for many.

Do animals know all this? At a basic level, they do. Not in the way you "know," but in a cellular awareness they understand that they are here in service to planet earth. If you honor them in all three instances, then balance will be the result. Your feelings about their treatment is important. Temper your reactions with the spiritual logic of their appropriateness and their service to humanity. Honor them in all three cases.

Lampung`s coffee exports drop

Bandarlampung (ANTARA News) - Lampung province`s robusta coffee seed exports in the January - Febriary 2007 period dropped to 14,326 tons from 36,374 tons in a corresponding period in the previous year, head of Lampung Industry and Trade Office, Suparmo said here on Thursday.

He said during the period, the value of Lampung`s robusta coffee seed exports also declined to US$19.8 million from US$35.2 million in the same period of the previous year.

"This means that the export volume decreased 60.61 percent and the export value dropped 43.61 percent," he said.

He said that the drop in Lampung`s coffee seed exports was due to the fact that harvest time had not yet come during that period.

The harvest season will take place in July and August, 2007, he added.

Chief of the agriculture and forestry affairs section of the trade and industry office, Bambang Supartono, said meanwhile that coffee trees at coffee plantation centers in Lampung such as in the districts of Tanggamus, North Lampung and West Lampung, were bearing good fruits.

"Based on our observation, Lampung coffee farmers will have a good time this year with abundant and good coffee products," Bambang said.

During the coffee grand harvest in Lampung last year, the price of coffee in the production centers ranged at between Rp6,500 and Rp10,000 per kg, he said.

Late this month, the coffee price is recorded at Rp12,000 per kg after it reached Rp15,000 per kg in the previous weeks.
