Yes, yes, yes, Hard lessons for me to learn also. ( Congrads on your passing grade Clare. ) There was a time where the harder I tried to control and manage the outcome the worse things became. Then... POOF... let go and it all came together like magic. Where in the world did we EVER get the idea tha...

I don't want to be a pillow I don't want to be a pillow or a jacket, or a throw My life was not created to warm people in the snow I do not want my body parts mashed into a can and spread upon a cracker in culinary land Do not bathe my sad remains in a citrus glaze my life was not created to be broa...

Yes, Geese are blessed little souls. I too have wild Canada's that fly over my house morning and night on their way between two nearby ponds. My guy's always cock their heads and look skyward as if to say" hey, they sound familiar, why are we stuck down here?" Found out a few years ago that my nativ...

Yippee! :D I am back in the now! ( duh-ed out on my password, Thank- you Erict. ) Being in the now for me involves much of what you all have mentioned. Focus on breathing, attention to objects, nature and yes.... animals. In the " now " " housegoose " is enjoying wonderful moment of presence. Marwyn...

Hi Phil,


LOL.... WHAT is IT about men and headphones?

Every man I have ever known is into " mainlining " music!

Another fascinating gender discrepancy? ( smile )

Hi Linda, Yes, whats going on is.... you are allowing yourself to " be" and feel without judgement. Probably you feel safer alone than to engage in a public display of feeling, Most of us have been conditioned to hold back in the " presence " of others who we fear may judge us. I am finding as a per...

BTW.... I love the ET tale where he is observing Ducks on a lake/pond? He observes duck reacting to his space being invaded by other duck. Duck reacts, defends his space and then just settles back into the now. " Aaaah, that's OVER! " LOL. ET says if duck were a human with ego issues it would go som...

Called him " Draino "....LOL.... he would peek out of drain hole so I did'nt run any hot water in bathroom for weeks. Warned all my comp...

Hi Phil, Hi belank.... Yes, Marwyn is now enjoying his 8th year with me and his chubby wife "Babby"! He is domestic White Chinese goose so no release for him. I raised him with mirrors in his crate to help facilitate a visual of his own kind as he was singleton and could find no other goslings his a...

Hi belank, I used to keep feeders out for the birds also but had troble with deer. They would stand on their hind legs like goats and headbutt feeders till they flipped upside down and spilled! I still put out a peanut butter/ cornmeal dough for Woodpeckers and Nuthatch's and the flying squirrels lo...

Great contribution Phil! Do you do rodent rehab? I volunteerd with a local wildlife rescue group in my area for sevral yrs. a few years back. That is where " Marwyn " my goose came from. He was tiny 2 week old gosling wandering in middle of nowhere. Woman that found him took him home and he lived on...

Great article's Claudia! Hmmm.... interesting..... considering I was just on cnnmoney.com checking interest rates in Netherland banks just the other day. Perhaps my calling is to invest with the Maharisi???? What a mind, what a SOUL :) L.!

Enjoy who you are. Enjoy your gifts. We all are self aware enough to know the difference between arro...
