Bored Takes a Holiday

I posted this picture on my Twitter page with the word, “Bored”.

One of my pals basically said, “Quit whining and go for a walk if you’re bored." Well, okay then. I did.

Walking along with Diana and Michael got me to thinking. Yes, yes, I know that usually gets me in trouble, but not this time.

There are terrible things in this world;

balanced by beautiful days.

There are times when I feel I've been left behind;

balanced by times I feel I've found the only place I belong.

There are times when I can’t look;
balanced by times when I can’t stop.

During late October my neighborhood trees catch fire then blaze into quiet renewal. I guess trees can’t party all the time. Old leaves fall away to make room for new ones.

There is a metaphor for life in there somewhere, but, well, as I’m a dog I can’t quite grasp it. I can enjoy a nice walk with Michael though.
