Catching Squirrels

Peace is not something you wish for. It is something you make, something you are, something you do, and something you give away.

—Robert Fulghum

Duff here. My Uncle Edgar was part of the metaphysical Branch of the Family. He was an Expert at meditation, often chanting, and sitting with Things. He was an avid Follower of the 1970’s TV series Kung Fu, starring David Carradine. His Hero was that peace-loving Shaolin monk Kwai Chang Caine. This Master traveled the American Old West, helping People solve Problems and achieve Peace. Living unstuck.

I have told You about My Unsuccessful Attempts to catch squirrels. (I would even settle for coming somewhat close to One of Those Pesky Creatures. But no.) My Uncle tried to teach Me some Martial Arts techniques to improve My likelihood of Accomplishing This. Many of these involved Staying Still for Long Periods of Time. Since I am a Springy Type of Canine, much like a Bouncy Rubber Ball, I was doomed from the Beginning. Think I’ll leave the hunting to Him. Living unstuck.

How about You? Are You a Peaceful Individual? Or do You bounce around like Me? I say: Be who You are. Perhaps there’s a time for Each Mode. Let’s leave the Squirrel hunting to Uncle Edgar. He has a Knack for becoming the Energetic Critter. Living unstuck. #unstuck-living#Peace
