Blog Post: Watching the Smoke

This is Whiskey one of my two Boxer puppies. He is nine months old today. Oh, yeah, he's pretty sure he rules this house. The only problem is his sister, Kima, is the smart one of the family.

This is Kima after her graduation. I'm hoping she will graduate to become a therapy dog. She loves to kiss people.

But, the title of this blog was Watching the Smoke. Yes, there are big fires in the beautiful forests of BC. Our sky is filled with smoke. The sun and moon look orange through the blanket of smoke. I am concerned about it and to help find a way to be with the destruction of beautiful tress I remember my Zen training. Everything is in the state of always changing, inconstant, undergoes rebirth and redeath. Impermanence it life itself. Under the physical form is the true nature of energy and spirit. That makes me love my puppies more and thank them for being with me in this physical reality.

My best to you,

Brie
