Nope, it ain't happenin' here! I will write until the days my fingers can hunt and peck.......
My life with dogs is one part letting go....mixed with two parts of being okay with letting go. Bella is still off from the accident. She is sore and still does not stride out correctly on a wide open Come Bye flank. I'm working on that......including taking her to acupuncture tomorrow. I'm looking forward to seeing what that might bring to the picture of Bella's health. Bella and I sit on the list for the finals....waiting (and letting go of expectation) to see if we get in. Bella, Nell and I sit on the waiting list (letting go) for LaCamas. It's a big huge "let go" experience right now.....and I'm passively, okay, okay, I'm ripping my clenched fingers from my expectations that I attach to my dreams. Oh, life......the lessons are always interesting and reveal more of me to myself.
Dot is coming along....somebody posted a quote from Buck Brannaman about being willing to go back to the beginning every time you take a horse out. Indeed, I have to be willing to go back to the beginning every time I take Miss Dot out. For me, this is about helping Dot let go of tension, and with that, we have days of square one, and days where I see the glimmer of open. Letting go.....of expectations and allowing the day......again.
Sis is ready to go....a little more than peeks once a month. However, the summer heat does not cooperate with me and so I let go, once again....same theme different dog. When the temps cool and the month of pneumonia fades to fall....Sis and I will have our lifetime to train. Instead, we work on that'll dos, lie downs, relationship mixed with fun. I love her disposition and take on life...she fits me.
Letting go....and working on enjoying the art of all that entails does not make for the most exciting of blog posts. Instead, it is life!
Seize the Day!
For a few days, now, I've been wanting to ask you if you were giving up your blog...afraid to ask, really! :) I'm glad you are not. Keep on writing!
ReplyDeleteKeep on Keeping on. Today is the day that we seize. Let go, yes.... but remember to breath deep of THIS day.
