I read your blog today and was given to think of those cows. Did you pause to wonder what their thoughts were as they watched you? I wonder sometimes as animals watch us if they wonder why we are so helter-skelter all the time when we could just relax, smell the roses, feel the breeze, watch the sun's beauty as it rises and sets, after all we are all awaiting the same fate....be it a slaughter house, chasing a car down the street (like a dog or Secret Service Agent) or a serial killer showing up at the door.....just something to think about when you catch those wonderful furry friends looking at you with their head cocked sideways.

  1. Thanks Don. I am trying to find that space with this new life that I can sit back and watch those sunrises and sunsets and write, and meditate...things that mean so much to me, and still be able to put the food in the dishes and in the stalls for these animals that call me mom.

    I had to laugh aloud yesterday when I was driving. All three dogs curled up on each of their beds in the car and every once in awhile, one would lift an eye towards me, just checking to see if I was still all right. I started laughing, they must be thinking their mom was crazy and we were going to just keep driving around the country until we ran out of money or the car quit on us. After this two week long journey, they must be beginning to wonder.
