They all wait....

They all wait patiently
For the responsibility of my soul….

A small flock of red-capped Sandhill Cranes.
Scholars of some obscure school,
That fills their time, for now.

A hawk, multi-tasking.
Staying close by, in hopes of his opportunity
While still searching for mice.

A Great horned owl.
The most patient of all
Philosophically eyeing me up
Pondering what it will take to ferry me off.

So they all wait patiently,
Just for the chance, to carry my soul away.

Need to or want to......

Get them to respect the person, before they respect the position.

Then, any task will be done with a sense of importance rather than necessity. And, all the important things tend to get done first and better

Sorry if this has gotten too "churchie".....

So, why is it, that if god is everything he is purported to be, (you know; kind, benevolent, loving...) why do we have to ask to be forgiven?

Natural order and the food chain...

No one person is fundamentally greater than another. Some assume they are better than others, because of their financial position. Others believe in stratification based on their job, job title, or academic achievements. Granted these are great deeds, and worthy of mention in conversation. However, they do not move some one higher up on the food chain. No one ever becomes the hunter nor the hunted. Therefore, unless you put air in my lungs, or sign my paycheck, you get the same respect you give.

It looks good on you......

There's nothing more attractive than humility and an honest smile.
