Feeding the Good Wolf

Posted by: kim

Life is full of twists and turns, ups and downs and unhappy people.  So many times those "unhappy people"  try to spread their toxic waste onto "happy" people.  As "happy"  people we must constantly remind ourselves of the wonderful things we have within our heart and send good intention to those who need love. We should always look around and see the beautiful things which surround us!  My house and my yard are my sanctuary.  When I look outside I see beautiful doves and cardinals flying about blessing me with their spirit.  My trees and plants sport such grace and they bend and flow with the storms and wind.  They see it as an opportunity to dance and bring positive movement and energy.

Their was an old Indian story about a Grandfather and his Grandson.  The Grandfather told him we have a good wolf and a bad wolf inside of us.  The young boy asked "which one do I have?"  The Grandfather replied "Whichever one you FEED"

Feed your good wolf, your mind and spirit with honesty, goodness and most of all happiness!


Dots and Bob

Posted by: kim

I wanted to tell you about the 2 newest DoeVille employees, Dots and Bob.  Dots appeared outside the DoeVille headquarters several months ago.  He is a young and quite curious cardinal.  Not only is his personality incredibly enjoyable but his unique markings earned him the name "Dots".  You see he has these bright red dots on this breast, they are adorable.  In the beginning, Dots was the only cardinal that would appear to investigate our feeder just outside the office window.  Now his entire family has joined him.  His family consists of 2 sisters and a brother as well as Mom and Dad.  It was like they sent Dots on a reconaissance mission to make sure our office and trees were a safe place!  They could not have selected a more loving and caring home....we love our Nature around here!

Recently, Dots and his family got a new neighbor Bob.  Bob is new to our community.  He is a feisty squirrel with a bob tail.  We have decided that he looks and acts more like a rabbit than a squirrel.  These creatures all share well together.  We also have an enormous dove and butterfly community which add both audible and visual excitement to our work place.

I think we can learn many things from our friends in nature.  They work very well together and if one of them gets in another one's way they just give them a peck and keep moving forward.  My favorite saying is "Go Back to Grazing".  This is what horses do in the pasture.  If another horse snips or gets in their way, they may kick back or snip back but then they go back to grazing!  It is good for us human folk to just stop, watch and listen to the birds and the bees.
