You don’t have a care in the world, nothing that bothers you, at least not one that you want to think about. Your pockets are empty. Your billfold is at home on top of your dresser, and your mind is void of any worries. There is blue sky above and big soft white clouds all around. How nice it would be to be lying on one of them and watching down on the earth!
The birds that fly up close to them must be able to feel their softness and how fresh they must smell. Some clouds travel in one direction while others a little higher are going in another. They don’t seem to care where they are going or when they will get there. Some will form a picture up there for you to guess what it is and then change to form another, a game they play all day long. These are the ones you want to watch from morning to the dark of night and sometime the moon will light the night sky so one can watch them in the dark. The stars above, will sparkle and blink at us down here on the ground and they listen to what you are saying, Every wish that is made is heard from above, but those wishes are not for them to grant, Wishes are in another much higher department, way up above the sounds of drums, the flashing of lightning , the rainbows, the wind, rain and bright sun. It is all so close and yet so far away! You stretch out your arm, but you can not touch it. But you know it is there, just beyond your reach.
There are ever so many wonders in this world, but you have to open your eyes to see them. People will look, but not all will see. When you feel the coolness of a breeze, the warmth of the sun and the smell of all the things around you, this is when you really have your eyes open. To touch something and feel the softness or the hardness of it, is also a joy you never pay much attention to. There is still many another things that you never think about, but are there, deep inside of you. That warm comfortable feeling of life in it’s self . It makes you want to put your arms around it all and hold it so dearly.
These are only a few of the things that were given to you and all others, and yet so many are still un-aware of the finer things in life. Man could not make them look so beautiful and money could not buy them. They belong to all of us that know, love and appreciate beautiful things. As the season changes, nature take the same wonderful pictures and make them even more beautiful. And it goes on year after year in and throughout each persons life and not just here, but around the world. It is one big picture that you can not see at one time.
How can it be, that there are so many beautiful people and animals in the world and no two are alike? The animals and their babies, that are so entertaining to watch,. This is the only time in their lives when they will have no fear. It makes you want to pick them up and hold them in your arms! But with in a few short months they will learn fear and it will remain with them for life. Why is this so, why is it that all animals fear Man the most? I am a man and I know why! But I do not under-stand why it has to be this way. Where did it all start? Why has it continued through all these years?
All newborn babies are fearless when they are born, they are attracted to most living things, things they hear and can see. They have to learn fear and it always starts with the Mother, teaching them to be afraid of everything and the reason is for protection from that day on. Women stay close to their young and try to catch then when they fall. They hold them upright so they will walk and fall sooner. Most of the animal kingdom will let nature take it’s course and let the young learn at their own pace. What you do not understand, you fear. Most men and animals will not harm the young, If a child learns to walk at age eight months or a year., what the difference? It doesn’t make the child slow or fast, more or less intelligent by any measure.
All animals are curious and need to investigate. If necessary, animals of one kind will adopt or nourish the young of another species, and we marvel at this, that is taking place before our very own eyes. Love and kindness, living in harmony with nature, is a term often heard. Who among you know about this and practice it in life? The land gives many things to you. what do you give in return ?
I would urge everyone to stop and look around, then ask yourself, what can you give?
