2013
I saw this photo
and couldn’t put my eyes anywhere else.
I kept thinking about being USEFUL. Our human need for that, or maybe as the photo shows, an
animal need for it. We get a look
on our faces, a shift in our stance and a heart space deepened by the
action. We are grateful to
serve. Nice! In looking for definitions, I
also found the phrase “useful load”.
It is an aeronautical term meaning the maximum load a plane can take on
above it’s own weight. How do we
determine this for humans? How do
we balance the need to help and the need to keep our load right for us? I think this dog has it just
perfectly. He is tuned to the
season, found the right thing to do, brought the right tools, was out on the
land, and had a friend’s help and companionship… All the pieces I wish for each of you who reads this. May you have the happiest and best New
Year.
Love, Misty… And Iris and Zuzu,
who are the most USEFUL pals.
