My Means of Escape.....

...& More Magpie Stories.

We heard from others today that the Magpie that attacked me the other day has been a terror of the neighborhood for a few years now and there have been several casualties. Apparently a tree that was its home was cut down hoping to get rid of it but the smart little bugger just moved to the next tree.

I have a very blessed life but there are some days I would love to jump into this boat and disappear up the river for a while.

Don’t search for heaven and hell in the future.
Both are now present.
Whenever we manage to love without expectations,
calculations, negotiations, we are indeed in heaven.
Whenever we fight, hate, we are in hell.

~ Shams Tabrizi ( Rumi not the dogs friend)
