After a somewhat difficult time getting to sleep, having some sleep, waking up to a new day I am still finding it difficult to express in writing what I am thinking and feeling. Reading through the posts many have expressed what we are all feeling and finding difficult to articulate. So many thoughts were going through my head in the wee hours of this morning that I couldn't get my braint to shut up long enough to fall asleep. One of the things that crossed my mind though was how simplistic Mother Nature truely is. Creatures besides humans are born ,eat sleep, breath, reproduce and yes die. Yet the creatures carry on much faster than we humans do. It's because of our emotions, souls, ability to think, reason and problem solve that life gets so complicated for us. Another thought that passed through the brain waves is what a roller coaster it has been for the Phanatics from the amazing opportunity witness one of Nature's special moments - the hatching of the 3 chicks all in one day. And then to heartwrenching events of yesterday. But in the grand scheme of things that's what life is, the up and downs. And as someone else said, it is rather amazing how 3 little chicks have had such an impact on people from such far reaching places in this country and this world. I feel blessed to have witnessed it all because like so many others not many get that kind of opportunity to be a witness to such an event, at such a precise moment online because it happens so quickly, much less in the wild.
