Rune Lesson: The best result of any relationship is that it can heal. In many cases, as we gain teamwork, we KNOW, we are self-aware, of the causality in many situations. The danger is, however, that absolute trust can create a certain amount of blindness. Trust can put side blinders on us so we can’t see anything other than what is strait ahead. While that may SEEM beneficial, we need to be aware of the world around us, too. As we control our situation in its totality, our world is secure and safe.

WOO HOO! I finally got that wasp out from Socks’ house! He wanted to go into his house this afternoon: excellent choice Socks. When I went inside with him, THERE IT WAS! It disappeared for a bit, but then showed up again on the sliding glass door. I quickly grabbed a cup I was keeping inside there for just such an occasion. I cornered him underneath the cup, but couldn’t get him to get into the back of the cup so I could cover the top. Perplexed, at what to do, I had an AH-HA moment. I opened the sliding glass door and edged the cup toward the opening. I tipped the cup over the edge, then quickly scooted the entire cup over the edge of the door and off the wasp flew! Mission successful!
*my wifey has told me I was the only man she knew who didn’t want to kill a wasp straight away.
