Feed the Feathered Ones

                                                                                                         




Lots of complaints lately about my lack of providing food for our neighborhood birds.  Spouse complains about no birds or bird activity to watch and the lack of deer in the yard.  The deer are more marauders than cute wildlife.  The dog has also complained because there has been nary a squirrel to chase, this being one of her favorite pastimes. The reason for not putting the bird feed out was a simple lack of interest on my part.  


Sometimes we forget that the individual is not the only one who counts.  Those around us count also.  They also count on us to do the things which create beauty, relaxation, and/or simple enjoyment.  And not to put too fine a point on all of this....God expects us to take care of all of his creation.  Feeding the birds, not polluting the environment, tolerating Obama for a few more months, all are part of God's creation.


By the way, many people are confused about Obama wanting to order insurance companies to provide contraception.  The issue is NOT contraception or religion.  This issue is the UNCONSTITUTIONAL decrees and edicts the President persists in enacting.
