That's What It's All About



I was on my way over
here today, my friend-

I was gonna take a picture
of your oak for the cover
of this book-

Which I'm still gonna do-
but it's gonna have to wait
until tomorrow now-
it's getting to dark.

But anyways- I had to
slow down-
and wait for the
bear to cross the road-

A big black bear!

I guess that's what
I get for living in the country,
but it's not something
I am willing to give up-

the peacefulness.
the country air-
the animals that are seen,

that is what it's all about,
enjoying life and
all that's around you!

I will get that picture
tomorrow my friend.

      Isn't it great when you see a deer, a bear, a fox or whatever? There is nothing better. That is for sure. Thanks for the wonderful comment.

    Wow~

    Now speaking of bear- I briefly watched a segment where one attacked a baby moose
    I cried~ just painful to watch-
    mother could not do anything but watch her baby get dragged away
    but that is the circle of Life unfortunately
    Love this one~!!

    Thank You for sharing Your Heart and Spirit~
    Many blessings to You in all You do Sweet Soul
    Best wishes too
    and much love & light~ Desire~*~

    Love the poem here in the series but I don't think I'd want to see a wild bear.

    Love,
