The North American Black Bear sayin:

to Dr Lynn Rogers,

"Thanks For Working To Get Legislature To Listen"

PROTECT RADIO COLLARED BEARS

http://www.bear.org/

for information on how you can

take a STAND and effect change

Let your voices be heard

for these magnificent bears

that this brilliant researcher has spent his life

walking with and researching

and educating these

North American Black Bears

and will continue!

We will benefit now

and

for

generations to come!

visit today,

click on the live cam and be entertained by

Lily and her tribe of babes

HOPE

Faith and Jason

as they tumble and cry and holler

in the den

then click on the links to see how you

can add your name to the petition for

PROTECTION

of those bears that are brightly ribboned

to alert hunters to

NOT SHOOT

and then

click on the links for those

who have the power

to make it against the law

to shoot.

So, it's morning and the suitcase is at the door

the coffee is poured

and

soon I am headed to Tampa International Airport

on my way to MN

where the weather is a bit chilly

according to friends there.

It is the kind of weather that

a bear enjoys,

brisk

and snowy

I hear.

So I will bundle up

and

with an attitude of great gratitude

fly the friendly skies

HOPING to see a

North American Black Bear

to let them know

some powerful warriors

are

taking a stand for them.

LOL

Faith, patience, kindness and compassion

are all things we need when trying to get things done

I think.

When trying to get along, when trying to get things done

folks get excited, they get stressed.

Even in the best of times

stress works on people who want the same things.

Feelings get hurt, words get said that later wish they could be taken back, misunderstandings

and

lack of understanding.

Knee-jerk reactions and overall chaos can break out.

We often do best when we are mindful,

mindful that each is walking a unique road

one

that can only be partially understood by another

and only then if we are walking alongside the person

traveling that road.

So when walking today,

on whatever journey or mission you are on;

keep in mind

that each of us

in our own way are walking a path

that is sometimes new and different;

sometimes flat land and sometimes hilly and uncertain.

We would do well to take a deep breath

before each step

and try to be mindful

that the person we speak to might have 3,000

things running through their brain

and one heavy thing sitting on their heart.

Just sayin,

we don't know what we don't know.

One thing I do know is this:

There are blessings all around us

and

I sometimes am amazed that we do not give the good moments as much attention and praise and time

as we give the rotten or bad moments

in the re-telling ...

I also know

that Dr Seuss was just outright brilliant!

"Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, Nothing is going to get better. It's not." — Dr. Seuss

So you see, sometimes we must look to the brilliance that resides within and if we can't find it right away,

it is perfectly ok to look to others to light the way!

STOMP

So as I head out the door for places unknown,

I wish you enough to have the best day,

and I leave you this quote to move you through the path of your day>>>

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind." Dr Seuss

The fire is burning, the sage is filling the air, with thoughts on the wind to all, and HOPE for all who enter here and those who know who they are!

I HOPE you will fill the emails and desks with your letters to

PROTECT THE RADIO COLLARED AND BRIGHTLY RIBBONED

NORTH AMERICAN BLACK BEARS!
