Peaceful Moments

When the world is in an upside down spiral motion for you and there is no light at the end of the tunnel look for the "peace" in the simplest of moments.
After I had dug up thistles in the pasture I sat on a little hill. The humidity was gone and the skies were blue with white fluffy clouds. I leaned my head back to feel the sunshine on my face and felt the soft breathe of a favorite ewe of mine, Melody. We bumped heads the way the ewes do that are in the same herd. She was acknowledging me as one of them. We stayed head to head for the longest time as she chewed her cud. I took a deep breathe  and smiled as I realized how lucky I am to have the connection I do with many of my animals. That is PEACE.
